Got some shots last night. Terrain park had some new features since sunday, but the platforms/boxes were really loose in the snow. I almost tipped the first one, so be careful and check it by hand first before you hit it. If you haven't been out for a night session in February, do yourself a favor and fit one in. But, be sure to get there ready to get on the lift at 6. The first hour or so is the best time of the day to ride. Fresh groom, Twilight sunsets, and no lift lines.
Worst bare spot on the hill:
Wobbler:
The box line:
Base still looks fine:
Mid Mtn:
Lightning:
Great sunset last night (Droid cam does 0 justice):
Getting Dark:

Sunday, there was a step-up where the up, flat box and lift tower were... I didn't go at it in step-up fashion though because the jump seemed more like a boot than a kick, which meant I would have been jumping just to clear the up portion... but the final jump was still in good shape.
I think I might roll through tonight despite the hip situation... want a few turns badly, especially after Jam's statement.

Step up was still there, jump at the end was still in order. Those boxes are upper PB, then the two big rails and an up flat down box arrangement. Beech ball hip minus the ball is there as well. If you skip the step and hit the first one just right, it gives enough speed to stomp the second. Ill be there Wednesday but I may be a little late.
