Very nice...Got to two minutes which took 25 minutes to view....Way decent powder....skiers nicely balanced....We would be riding more, far fewer shuffles....Just style differences....You guys got the goods early!!!!!!!! TM

That's why we don't long for fat and heavy gear very much. :)

Love the feeling of slicing, kinda hard to do on way fat skis....Been decades since we were ever on down hill slopes with that kind of powder....Keep up the good work CIMA....TM

Try to get up there once a week with the wife...Great place...great snow....wonderful people....And as I klutz around on my e99's pins and leather, wool sweaters and leather knickers....er...they like heavy tele think we are nuts....But they are so polite!!!!! Sometimes we see world class trainees...cruise past effortlessly....then a while later....then again....Man do they go...and do they ever hit downhill in a tuck....Ripping on dinky little slippers...tiny skis...Fun to see...TM
