New run opens on Goats Eye on a wonderful sunny day at Sunshine Village. Upper Afterburner is now open and the glades stretching over to the still yet closed Upper Scapegoat. The glades were tough going with fresh untracked snow that was deep and heavy. Also had a great ski down Bye-Bye Bowl from the Great Divide Chair. On Standish the Donkeys Tail was good with only one worn rock spot. Paris Basin from the Wawa Chair is in good condition but the run out through Waterfall is forming moguls again after the recent grooming.
