Hunter skiing Jan 20

Hi All,
Couldn't buy a ray of sunshine today - other than that, surface conditons were excellent but you couldn't see it. There was a dusting overnight and a few light flurries today but no accumulation. Very flat light with thick low cloud cover and damp with temp in the teens up top and about 30 at the base. Everything on the front was well groomed except Racer's and the west also groomed except Claire's / Apurna. Rt 80 was nice until you hit Claire's as the runout to the lift was slick and bumpy (what's up with that Skip?). All east side trails were flat and powdered but again, hard to see. Cliff was nice into Ike but the top of Bleeker above Ike was showing brown snow - needs snow making. Hgate well groomed but very flat on the runout to mid-station which was also very hard to see down to Kennedy. F was running empty and there was no line on the quad - ski on, ski off! The forecast for tomorrow shows sun - 'bout time! They really need to make some snow as there is so much groomers can do with shavings off the hard pack.
Weekend movie: "Fantastic Mr. Fox" (never heard of it)
Food review: Hearing good things about the food at "Vertical Drop", the newly renovated restaurant at Cortina in Haines Falls.
