fyi: the daytime high is supposed to be in the upper 50s-low 60s, so it'll probably get REALLY slushy by 2, if not sooner. the earlier you can start your day on the hill, the better.
also, a good spring conditions wax is almost necessary. and zardoz notwax will do wonders!

no problema... just offering helpful tidbits b/c "grabby" slushy snow can LITERALLY be a drag.
