HS and Elementary school spring break is over now. But some private schools might still be off for 1 more week.

picked up my Y2Play pass today and hit up grouse for the first time this year today. Conditions were good--was there from around 330pm - 630pm. Not much fresh powder left and the snow was a little wet and heavy, but still good nevertheless. Visibility was great...i hope they'll get another dump of snow soon, but somehow i doubt it. The Quicksilver terrain park was open today--i am not a park person, but just wanted to bring that up in case anyone's interested in the Quicksilver park.

Thanks | today was pretty quiet
village was a ghost town
line ups maybe 10 minutes at the worst
peak = foggy at times, 6 inches of powder then pure ice underneath
mid mountain = awesome
lower mountain = all slush like a giant slurpee
