ABasin Conditions

Looks like the OP here skied a lot of the same terrain as you:

A-Basin, CO April 30, 2023

Spring at the Basin. After a cool week with another ~10" of snow at Abasin, things warmed up just enough on Saturday, the day before, to have melted much of the area. SO early start was not necessary and we arrived ~9:30a and top of Lenewee about 10a. It was interesting in that off groomers...

The ABasin season pass holders who head out during the early days are happy to wait in a long line even when it's just one groomed run. With the freshies from this weekend's big snowstorm, no surprise that it was a "powder day" lift line first thing in the morning. Check the webcam in an hour or so.

EDIT: staying cold all day

A Basin today. The white ribbon of joy was definitely worth the airfare.

If you are standing in the back of that line waiting for them to start loading the chair when there's only one run open you ain't skiing powder.

The lines weren’t bad. The pow was edge deep.
