    Got up early on Saturday morning and it was 17 degrees. Take gondola (or gangula) to the top and then Great eastern to Upper east fall then down to the North Ridge Triple. There was a Park at the top and Rime was full open. Very good until 10 then the crowds got heavy. The lift is a fixed lift so the amt of people on the slopes stayed steady but the lines were crazy. 20 minute wait lines easy. After noon its was 'firm' with ice patches and moguls. Sunday was much of the same.

    Suite, for some reason I wasn't getting the stoked vibe from your OP, but glad you had a good time.

    Sweet. I'm dying to board, just praying we get a decent winter. Last year was abysmal.

    Glad it was a success pump, even though ice is a pain. Morning runs are always the best because of those fresh corduroy tracks. I'm getting amped for the season. Got all my ish laid out already...
