For best results,
Carry tons of speed over the gaps & holes throughout the mountain,
you should be fine.
The weather is looking marvelous, enjoy.

Yay! That was a quick switch from the Saturday web site notice saying that they thought the snow was melting too quickly to allow more running of the lifts beyond this past weekend. Perehaps the premature web site notice helped draw some more people up this past weekend, though it was far from crowded!

Sure was fun on Saturday, and yes, it's good to ski what you can see unless you like close encounters with holes. Watched a patroller fall through thin snow and drop several feet below into a bit of a creek as he checked out one big gap that some folks were eagerly jumping. Some such stuff is marked with poles but much isn't.

Rode the chair Sunday with someone that also skied Saturday. Snow conditions much better Sunday due to cloud cover and cooler temps. Better weather on Saturday, but more solar affected snow.
Had a great time. Highly recommend Adrenalin or Breakover trees.

IMO the snow on Saturday was better than on Sunday. No stick to the ick on Sat. made for fast takeoffs over all dem holes, although by day's end, the few inches of new up high was riding quite well

I guess it is all personal preference. I am sure I would have had just as good of a time on Saturday too! I was only there on Sunday so my only reference is a brief conversation with another person fortunate enough to ski both days. The only hole that surprised me was skiers right at the entrance to Lower I. but it was an easy hop.
