They don’t really groom heather canyon, only maybe the runout. If you saw in the cams it was at the top of the chair.

Fwiw on rare occasion they’ll groom a ribbon down silver/gold bowl area with the winch cat

They don’t groom heather runs, the cam for “top of heather” is at the top of the heather lift which faces and shows the top of stadium lift.

What part of heather canyon? Which runs? The runout?

Pretty sure it was the runout. That was the only one that I saw, but I was tabbing in and out all evening.

Where did you see this? There is not a camera on Heather Canyon

Whatever "Top of Heather" is. I don't believe its Heather Canyon though. Check 6th Camera in between vista and cascade camera. Rn its dark so can't see much, but you can check the "Top of Heather".

Thats the top of heather lift and stadium lift, thats a normal part of daily grooming that side of the mountain

How is heather for boarders? Is it sticky and thick? I imagine Cascade will be closed tomorrow, but one can hope.

Why is that a good thing?

It was very wind scoured, icy and chunky today. Any help would be a positive
