Hunter March 25

Hi All,
Finally a very pleasant day to ski this week. Early lake effect clouds and flurries disappeared by 11:30 and out came the sun. Temps went from mid teens to 34 now. Surface conditions were hard and fast, well groomed and consistent. It was getting scraped off by late morning but also started to soften up a bit. The un-groomed trails were not really an option unless they soften considerably like they did late pm yesterday. "Thin Cover" lolly-pops still dominated the steeper west side trails and White Cloud remained closed. It will be cold but clear this weekend per below forecast. The crowds were light as they were all week. The Flyer was running fine and "F" was running today for the first time this week.
Winter is still here so don't put away those extra layers yet. Movies: http://www.catskillmtn.org/retail/movie-theater/index.html
Ski ya,
Jon
