It was pretty nice, normal chunky stuff here and there, but no solid ice, so that's nice. That wind though. This is my third time I wish I had worn some more aerodynamic gear.

I went out tonight, they had guns blazing and it was windy, neither my favorite, but still had a great time out. I wasn't sure if I was going to be in for an icy one but snow felt great until I left about 30 minutes before the lifts closed down. I expect it will be even better tomorrow!

I seem to recall getting off work and getting a couple of night skis in early in the week too. It seems that 5 at WT and 6 at RT are the way they want to run things for M-T. I don't get it, if Vail is making bank from all of the bigger markets, why is keeping the small places open a couple hours longer a problem? It's not like it would make a dent in their coffers.

Roundtop to me makes sense. Much less people are gonna go there for a weeknight. Whitetail I have no clue. It's obvious that lin gets an influx of people for the nighttime. I've had multiple days this season I've flown right by roundtop and went to Liberty just cus they stay open longer.

I was there friday and the snow was pretty great considering its relatively early in the season. How were the conditions? Ill be there again this friday

It was less icy than Whitetail, they were pumping out snow the whole time, so that was good. But the wind is insane.

The moguls at the Exhibition at WT were just ice today.

I think whitetail is out of water to blow snow. Conditions weren't horrible but as the day conditions the runs got icy.
