i went last day/night… i got there at like 4. The first 2hours or so sucked because it was pretty much a white out and you couldnt see 10 feet in front of you, and there was a ton of fresh powder. i actually cut too quick and my one ski got stuck and i did a front flip LOL. around like 8-close it was pretty much perfect though

driving down there at 3 and leaving at 10 was pretty much awful, thank god i just had new tires mounted before i left. i think they had a driving ban or something too

Maybe since I ski on hand made race-stock skis that only perform well on pure ice, might have something to do with it. I clearly don’t know what I’m doing…

When last night to HV, awesome time some areas were sheets of ice but there was some “gnar pow”. Fun time for the first time in years.

Went 3 times already, and Sunday being the last… I was tearing it up out there!! Love the new lift. Also the new policy during the day, if you can see if, you can ski it! Apparently that doesn’t apply at night. lol
