Finally got motivated to get on the hill. 10″ of super wet and heavy snow. Arrived at the summit amid super heavy winds, just in time to see the lift status marquee flip from green to red: bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing.
Headed down to the crowds at Payday for a few runs, then the town runs. So much snow on Empire that I just skied down the middle of the road from the town lift.
