Brighton comments:

[APRIL 1] Today's bringing a little bit of everything. A fresh layer is sitting right on that edge between soft powder and packable snow, with warmer temps and rising humidity giving it a slightly slower, PNW-style feel as the day goes on. Conditions are already softening up, with a slushy base underneath both groomers and off-trail terrain.
