Grab an early lift pass, like around 8:30 AM. The lines get crazy after that. I managed to hit some fresh powder first thing and it was so worth it!

For the best views, hike up a bit before hitting the slopes. I found a quiet spot that nearly no one else knew about. Just take some snacks and enjoy the scenery off-piste!

Be prepared for rapid weather changes. I packed a waterproof jacket and was so glad I did. My advice is to layer your clothing, it really helps.
