Visited in late December 2007 first time snowboarding. Great place to visit such pretty scenery just like a Christmas card. Quite expensive place but your are at the top of a mountain. The drive from Seattle take forever through snowy mountains. I would recommend this place rather than Whistler as its has snow where as Whistler was just warm & wet. Tip get up early before 10:00 to avoid the ski schools taking over the runs.
