:: Weather Conditions
Clear skies in the morning were soon replaced by clouds and snow showers. Visibility was good, even in the showers, with the occasional gust creating whiteouts for a few seconds. However any exposed skin was on the receiving end of a good blasting, as the strengthening winds whipped up the snow.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Windblown wet snow down to the top station allowed you to ski/board over to the quad chair. The Fairway below the chair was pisted to 2 widths wide. The lower half of the Goose was pisted out to 3 widths wide, with the top half and Goose Gully left untouched.

The best conditions were definitely in the top half of Goose gully before the burn became exposed. With the wind blowing so much snow around, there were plenty of areas filling in waiting to be re-tracked.

A few areas higher up have been scoured by the wind, but the summit has filled in nicely since New Year and Mark has started shifting around snow to start on the park.
