A lot of Crystal reports recently, here's a "me too".
Chris (Stollen), Ryan and I went to Crystal today and it was a great day! Yes, it was wet, but snow was falling from the sky and onto the slopes! All day! So we skied around Rainier Express and Green Valley all morning, and Forest Queen all afternoon. As previously mentioned, the Gondola wasn't running all day, and the REX stopped in the afternoon.
I love the open trees and slopes of Crystal, even when covered in PNW cement-like "powder".
On steeper slopes we would regularly break off mini-slabs (really, micro-slabs) up to 1 ft deep. No propagation, though, and practically no sliding, just sitting there in a pile of broken wet chunks of snow.
All in all, an unexpectedly great day.
