Nice mountain with a variety of slopes for all levels. Wish there was more of a place for non skiing people to hang out, but still a great place to ski. Been here for a couple of spring breaks. This year was not very busy which made it even better.

Love the Mountain but the base area is looking worn and could use a makeover.
