Haha, nice . . .
This is good, though . . . . Run a groomer over that crust, and it becomes nice eastern packed . . . (provided we don't go super super cold and ice everything up again).

yeah, im with you gents, i call it eastern basemaker. that thick wet icy snow will freeze up and stay all season... i'm willing to sacrifice tomorrow's icy conditions for the sake of the rest of the season. twister glades today were pretty fun actually, crust-buster conditions, not ideal, but it was fun no-less....
as my dad used to always say, "those western skiers think they're good skiing powder all the time... us skiers in the east are the REAL skiers, we know how to make fun of every kind of condition."

It kills me to be stuck in MASH with work when you guys are thrashin it.
Looks like one of those days when the trail report is simple: "Kill Kare closed."
My kingdom for some details and a pic or two.
