First, I must give props to Winterplace crew and the person who found my bud's wallet and keys on the slopes:>)Arrived late(10:00) looked like 6" of pow but all tracked out by then:( Made 3 runs, then spent next 45 minutes back tracking looking for wallet and keys. Still can't believe they were found:) With everything right in the world, we spent the rest of the day sking the blacks and blues on Mountian Lodge side:D

Mogul run was roped off when we made our first runs. Later on somebody knock it down,so I jumped. It had bumps but wasn't consistent. Rode the lift with ski po, he said they had it laid out sweet but people were pushing it off and tearing it up because of the soft snow.

Turkey was pretty nice yesterday morning. Most people there can't ski bumps though so they ruin it. The top half was still nice this morning, but the bottom had ice between sparsely spaced moguls.
I have some park footage and I also skied the "backside" of winterplace today. It was more like I walked towards the radio tower behind woods run but there was a lot of really soft untouched snow back there.
I didn't take any picture or video of it because I didn't have my camera and I didn't think it was that interesting but it was worth the hike back up just for the novelty of skiing back there.
If I have time I might post up some of the rail footage I have tonight.

Your wallet ordeal sounds better than mine. I drove all the way up there only to realize I left mine at home. Conditions looked awesome and crowds were light early but I ended up hiking Pipestem instead.
Got back there today and didn't forget my wallet this time. Wasn't exactly a powder-day but the conditions were still pretty good on the upper half of the mountain. Crowds were very light. Had Snowbowl all to myself.
