yep i was with him. the path up fro mthe gondola was epic. packed down, pretty easy hike for the most part. we didnt hike all the way up so we missed the main path down so i led us out and it was chest deep pow the whole way it was the sickest run ever.
one of the park guys told me that they will be blowing tons of snow infront of the lodge and making steps out of snow. on either sides will be the flat bot and a rail. winnes get hats from my mom and i dono what else.
