Well, the mountain is back! 

After a good foot of snow over the last few days, following snow last week, everything opened up with skiers on the Face, Canam etc.

Temps of  -20 Celsius this morning but since we had played hooky we ventured up , and lo and behold the sun came out and a bluebird day was the result. Yesterday we left early and got behind stopped cars at the top of the 242 hill so we waited about 15 minutes to get by. Temps kept the on hill traffic down and conditions were great with groomed groomers (big deal at Jay) and lots of snow in the woods ( a few stumps and ditches with the lack of base).
 
Let's hope the thaws are behind us and the snow will only get better for the rest of the year.
