Crystal was a bunch of fun yesterday. I was at the lifts at 8:58 only to hear that they had started them at 8:30. For the first 2 hours or so, fresh tracks were to be had all around. I hit high cambell and had fun on the 12" of new on top of a harder crust. By the afternoon it was all tracked out and bumpy. Judging by the crowds, all of Seattle must have been getting their turns in after last year.<br><br>South Country opened by 10 am, and North Country opened in the afternoon. I was alone in the afternoon, so I didn't get out there, but I heard from people on the lifts that North Country was great.
