It looks like a rather nice lift. Could of been taken before it opened or it could be a weekend lift.

It runs 7 days a week when snow allows usualy it opens later in the season than the remainder of the back bowls and closes earlier. Theres usualy good snow available there but its a long run out on the cat track.

I've never been there when it's closed, but I imagine you could find quite a stash in Mongolia Bowl.

I have found lots of pow back on mongolia even a week after the previous snow, its just short runs for two lift rides, but usualy worth it.
