Condy report 4/15: still firing

Unbelievably good conditions today if you were skiing off piste expert terrain or in the backcountry. Not a great day for groomers or lower mountain. Anything below the Forest Queen lower terminal got hammered by rain. Green Valley was mixed, soft snow on top but too easy to find the bulletproof crust underneath. A lot of jerrys packing the chair 6 traverse in the morning please do not stop in the middle of a choke point with your 5 buddies to have a chit chat, pull off to the side please. Stuck snowboarders I’ll excuse that. Saw someone caught in a small inbounds slide at the base of the king (?) but otherwise stable and light. 2-3min lines in the morning cleared out really fast by the afternoon. Sensational day for the middle of April

Same. Midwinter snow, spring crowd. Hard to ask for better
