Liftline waits: 
if you can call the big cluster of people a line near the lift then could have been worse, but also would have been nicer if it was an actual line
Jumps/Rails: 
fine but they put the biggest jumps in a place where it is super hard to get speed

The vibe at Mt high is always kind of annoying, which is why you have to stay away from the high speed lift and stick to the double chairs. But the annoying vibe helps to leave untracked snow in what are seemingly easy areas to get to, which is awesome for people willing to explore just a little bit. Overall had fun, both West and East resorts had powder in the right places a week after the major storm and it is only a little over an hour away.

they also got about 7 inches

they also got about 7 inches of snow friday-saturday, theres where your powder is from
