    Conditions were awful today. What terrible skiing. I didn't have any fun at all. I especially hated Skyward and Cloudspin this morning, Makenzie was also no fun. And don't get me started on the glades...

    I woke up then and thought the same thing but we have about 5 inches of new snow here in Wilmington now. The mountain is claiming 10 inches of new snow already and it's still coming down pretty heavy.

    Lookout below is tough relative to other black runs at WF. A lot of that has to do with the fact that conditions on the run are rarely good. But even in good shape, I would say it's trickier than most other blacks. Hoyt's is much more gentle and would probably be a "double blue" in some...

    That's, right. See my post above. It does get you in a bit higher but only a couple of turns.

    I straight-up asked ski patrol if I could just wait for another party and they were fine with it. Then I just followed up the first group that came along. So yeah, if they're open and you have avy gear, it doesn't seem like a real issue. When I say, follow up, I mean it too. When I skied the...

    Yeah, that's what I did. They did require and check for a beacon.

    I was able to get one run in down Slide 1 thanks to a group that let me tag along. Always an adventure but the snow will be better after tonight. Hopefully they will open them again Sunday or during the week..

    The good parking will go earlier than a normal Saturday but I wouldn't worry much about lift lines. When LWF, the Summit, and Lookout are all open the crowds spread out very well. As Snowflake said, maybe some minor lines at the Gondola at certain times during the day, but I would be surprised...

    Conditions were great this morning. Everything from Mountain run to Essex to Cloudspin to Skyward. Really a beautiful morning. Got chopped up fast but I think the cold dry nights sucked some of the moisture out of the snow the past few days so it was still good skiing the chop. As snoloco...
