Anyone with first hand experience of it?

It is a great place, and some of the runs are pretty steep. It can get
crowded though, and you may find yourself waiting 20 minutes at the bottom
of the motherlode chair. On a powder day, you better get up very early if
you want fresh tracks.

Some of the trees are tightly packed, and when the slopes is 35 degrees
and more it can get interesting. Add some low level cloud cover and some
cliffs in amongst the trees, it can get dangerous. Take a buddy,
especially down runs like Powder Fields, and in the trees on the Slides.

If you head up that way, you should try out White Water as well. Has even
less lifts and less terrain, but it's got a nice vibe from it. Visit
Nelson as well, if you need a break from riding. Great place.
