Well, that was quite a day...
Basically, we were flying in and out of the clouds all day. There were times when it was clear as a bell for whole chunks of the Mountain, and there were times when it was "pea soup" fog.
It was actually kind of neat to come out under the clouds and be able to look across the bottom of the clouds as you skied down.
As a skier, the conditions were great, if you needed to make a lot of little turns because of low visibility, so be it. When the vision was good, the traction was excellent and you could really lay down tracks.
Every run that was open was good.
It did rain quite a bit, but there were no bare spots at 4:00 pm and it was beginning to snow very heavily. There were white out sections on the way in to St. Jovite.
