thursday i got on 2nd chair at peabody at 8:30 as they opened early. good to be ready and early on a powday when no new is falling.
My wife & I were waiting in line at 8:30 Thursday - we were probably on the 10th chair or so... Here's a shot of of the line -
There was a wind-blown crust of about 2" on the snow near the top of the mountain with the light fluffy stuff underneath. I spent most of the morning experiencing wide/fat ski envy as I watched people float over the crust (and later crud) while my old Rossi 9x's did the best they could. The zoomer runs were great, with no crust. Looked like lots of people had a snow day as the place got crowded by mid-morning.
Hamdog is right, on both last Tuesday and Thursday people were just hanging around at the ticket counter asking for a singles.
