Crystal - 01/31 was created by ddk
Big Sunny, Big Cold, not to Big Crowd early – but it did show up during the 10 to 11 rush. Groomers fast and fun early, anything off the groomers was cut up yesterday, PB was great nice left over deep in the center of the bowl, BP’s skier left was pretty happy 98% of the time (every once in a while you can manage to find a nasty icy patch). Last of the Doors was doable and got down right spring soft in the hot late morning sun – as did Sunnyside and Memorial Forest – will not be pretty when it completely sets up tonight (was already firming up when the sad early afternoon low clouds moved in). Crowd not to bad most of the time where I was….REX reasonable in the singles line, FQex was a pain during the late morning rush hour, HC mellow till some short random bulge (everyone thought South was finally open? Saw folks on the King way early today).

Other – Soup at CB lodge was Garden Vegy (did look full body good). Gondy line was way to big early and also way even bigger when I left (no line on CHex when I left). Pay lot almost full, B C D and E all packed full. Newly tuned and edge sharpened BMW’s were very happy today (as I was – not unusual). Another very fine Sunny Sunday in what has turned out to be a very fine January.

Other other – Maybe BINX will give us a report about were he was today? Did see him up on the top of Chair 6 at least once….

Big sunny day!! Iceberg was fast and smooth till the crowd showed up 10:00+, We headed north which was
cut up pow with a little scratch underneath. On 2nd north the chair got a stop signal which lasted about 1/2 hour,
at least we had a sunny spot. Ski patrol took all the stranded names and told us to go to guest services after
skiing. We headed out south and skied north side of King through DFF, which was soft and good. We ended up at guest
services where they give a $20.00 voucher if you bought a ticket, for season passers NOTHING, I ask for a slap in the face
and ended up with FREE hot cocoa. Good day. Later DDK!!

You're lucky. We had to sit on the old C-6 for an hour (and then 15 minutes for our legs to stop tingling) to get the slap in the face.

What happened? One time issue or systemic problem? And where is, a least, the free beer coupons?
