the parking lot was 100% full...and yet when we actually got on the mtn we didn't have to wait in one line the whole day. you go to alta and it's a standard 20-30 minute wait on any run that takes you all the way to the bottom of the mtn.

She said it was good. She just went from 2:30 to 4:30 in the afternoon and she said conditions were good.
