Coverage is noticeably improved from 2 weeks ago. It is easier to reach chair 1, with still no creek (so far). It was clear and sunny all day, warm enough for T-shirt skiing from 10AM onwards. On Thunder there were ideal spring conditions nearly all day (plus a few packed powder areas in north facing trees). Groomed areas of chair 4 were great around 10-11AM but sticky by noon. Untracked Chair 1 areas like Holcumac have not consolidated yet since Wednesday's storm, and will need a few more warm days and freezing nights before we get corn. Skier-packed runs like Bentley's and Sugarpine had good spring skiing in the afternoon.

The late afternoon on Thunder was particularly enjoyable, with great skiing all over, and while waiting in line we watched one skier throwing (and usually landing) backflips off a well-placed jump.
