Seems like it's time we had a sticky for this?

Could we get a report from opening day?

There's nothing better than an Orangina after cheating death with Digger.

Looks like the usual slush followed by ice after 5 on cypress.

That being said, powder is slowly creeping on the sky chair:high::high::high::high::high::high::high::high::high:

Clunking is for retards.

Lions chair opens tomorrow, which means more fresh lines provided it didn't get too warm up there today.

Right. For whatever reason I thought lions = sky.

That said, there is a ton of great turns off Lions side :banana:

I had some good schmoo turns off of Collins, but only made it 3 runs before I threw in the towel.

good that they're getting snow again; this was the scene on the w/e:

funny: got chased down by a patroller on a sled - concerned i'd destroy what little snow there was left, i was asked not to carve on the lower (cat track width) runout on collins.
