Pete Martin, skier: "It's pretty good. Made a couple of runs. It's steep, it's good, it's light. It's really nice."

With excellent powder and virtually no lines, skiers had no complaints.

Steve Ludlow, skier: "I was surprised, I thought there'd be a lot of people up here with the holidays going on and everything, but so far it looks really good. No lines, nothing. How can you complain?"
