No lifts, but there were cat tracks to follow.
The condtions are definately worth mentioning.
The two to four feet of snow since Sun was too heavy to ski except in the steeepest areas. A fall or ski-tip under a tree could potentialy have resulted in burial.
At noon + the winds from the west went from 0mph to 30+?mph w/ no warning at all (other than the forcast). This wind imediately started to transport lots of snow and blow many trees free of snow.
