Looks like the staff did a nice job at the top with what they’ve got left.

Should be some peelable corn after she warms up.
They do nice work.

Pretty good today, taking account that it is April 29. There was some walking from the gondola and lift 10 to either Foxlair or Fairview, which were both good albeit Fairview was firm early because it was cold! The North wind was relentless today with a bite in it, but it definitely helped to save the cover with the bright sun today. Sunway Quicksilver is the lower Mt way down and Sunway was really good, and Quicksilver was not so much as there are some narrow bottlenecks that created some issues, but the runout on 3B and the Arena were pretty good!
Up top on the Darkside, Cloud to Santanoni and Little Cloud was good, and Hullaballoo softened up around 11:30 and Lower Darby around noon. Hullaballoo was definitely the pick!
Headwaters to Tannery was the runout and they were a pleasant ride!
Topridge was closed and is about toast with a few narrow connectors that are definitely skiable but to open it to the public it will be a cluster F with gapers standing around and trying to decide how to get around. Maybe they will try to connect the dots for tomorrow

Only had time for a single early run from Foxlair down - it was wonderful sliding from top to bottom, though Quicksilver looked like it was going to get rough (see attached) but groomers magic probably gets it through the early part of the day. Thanks for heads up on Darkside, if i can make it on MAY 1, that's where i'll head

Fun 3 hours this morning - got my 20th day. wood lots and santanoni made for laps first thing, then Hulabaloo once it opened - thanks to the patrol who shoveled a little extra snow on a coverage gap at the bottom. I think my favorite actual skiing (as opposed to avoiding dirt) was on Headwaters in the shade on skiers left. Also Fairview later in the morning after it softened - who knew Fairview would ever be so essential to a day at Gore.

Thanks to ORDA for stretching the season - all the extra snow on Wild Air and Arena for that skicross thing must have made the difference.

Thanks for the reports. Heard good things about today.

I showed up late today because life is starting again...I'll be back tomorrow and I will be able to free my heels and don't mind a little walking

Happy Birthday @Duck! Hope to see you on the hill.
