:: Weather Conditions
Warm, very little wind. Looked like it was going to rain at times but it didn't. Some sun in the afternoon
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Only the ptarmigan tow and the funicular for access but the snow was spring like and it was great fun.
The run was to the left of the tow going up, so the remains of skier cross gave some interest. The terrain park was also seeing action.
The Ciste gully is still complete to the boardwalk and was excellent. Thanks Alan for giving me a lift back as I'd only planned for one run and skin out so it was a bonus to get two.
The cas looked mainly broken so I came down at the end by the lady. Three or four decent patches but a bit of grass skiing and carrying in between.

Great day and there must have been a hundred at least taking advantage of it.
