80% of the time it's open as soon as the glacier chair is open.... Witch on a powder day can be hours but it's best to wait at the glacier chair even if it's a hour or 2 wait, because it's always worth it when you're first up. Now for spanky's they open the glacier chair after the safety patrol skis every run up there and gives a all clear so being Fridays a powder day it will open around 10 11 ish.
