A BUSY DAY
If you'd been here on Christmas Day,
you'd have wished you'd picked a different week.
Dec 25, 2025 came in at a 8/10, the kind of day where Ice Breaker can eat two hours of your morning. Crowds held steady around a 8 from open through close.

There is no afternoon dip
Waits hold steady through close. Live wait alerts earn their keep here.
