We got off at Goats Eye to try to get the best of the Pow before it got skied out. We did do a couple of runs off Strawberry but the wind was howling and the skiing was better in the Wolverine Valley.

No one in front of us most people went to Strawberry first

So that  was the opening day at Sunshine no complaints just be prepared for a few rocks and small trees. Lets hope the forecasted snow allows for the opening of Wawa and Standish.
