I've an inkling what that they don't.Does blue do 4 hour tickets still, or am I looking in the wrong place?

I hear about northern resorts getting power curtailments - Sugarbush's owner has said they missed cold weather a couple times this year from that. Maybe that's why they missed most of this window.

I was hoping for lower Sidewhiner but you can see from the lift not all of the trail is running and there's still dust covered grassy parts - maybe Sunday.
Also Pioneer Pass has till on it.

I might be out if Razors and Switchback open.

Looks like way more progress on Central than Terrain Run...

At least they had a little snowmaking last night to tighten things up for first tracks.

I've never seen Main Street bumped that hard without natural snow. That was nuts.

It was sweet through about 10:30, the sleet stopped and Barney's was bumped without having been seeded - natural spaced bumps are a treat and natural snow in them just made them better. I started with Chute - Main, did one trip down Main proper, then ComeAround to Chute a couple times before the kitty litter and lumps took over Chute. ComeAround had nice powder that whole time. After that I worked on Barney's 'till I packed it in. My conclusion is I need more practice, wax, and sharp edges. More powder wouldn't hurt either.

I'm not a potato, I've been slow tubing maybe three times but I did take a look around when I drove by.I didnt actually look at tubing. I said hopefully they are done on tubing soon.
Are you a tuber? Why so much info on whats going on at tubing?

Done? The middle section is barely white and the family tubes haven't even started yet.Pretty decent snow day today. Lazy was sooo much better today. Stopped in the lower lot on my way out. Blowing on challenge, not huge production. Really hard to tell what paradise looked like. Hopefully they will be done on tubing soon so they can focus on more trails.

Minivans are okay. Station wagons are awesome.

Rain's still holding off except a sprinkle once or twice. Chute's been suprisingly good all day, lower Main is starting to grow bumps.

Depends on weather if I'm there Saturday or just Friday.

At least something happened this year out that way - that's more progress than we've seen since it got clearcut.

I'm aiming for a night ski session - its too good to pass up on this early.

Also the groomers - they did great work especially with rain last night.

No, that's fresh paint - Burma chairs are still the old color. Vista got painted too.
Did anyone else notice the unplanted trees and new snowguns on Burma Road?

Looks like upper main and something near/on Midway and some stuff in the valley is on.

Main Street lit up some time before 6:15 per the Main Street cam.
Edit: and of course my phone loads the new comments after I post. So at least before 5:30.

There's no snowmaking on Vista, either - what sign are you expecting to see before ~midnight when it gets cold?

When do I get a grade, I keep posting all these correct answers.Correct
At least a gold star or something!

Vista also comes with Come Around, so your unsteepness is only blocked by other people, not features.

The big tell is going to be Tubing and the valley - if the fans for the base area run plus Tubing, they're ready to fight and try and stockpile.
Edit: as compared to opening just for the weekend.

Because it's five inches of natural. That'll compact to about an inch of base depth. Then it'll melt for a few days before the snowguns turn back on. No area around here will open on such a slim margin that one inch of base depth makes it or breaks it.Why?Also, the meltwater is going to soak the ground. Dry ground holds manmade better than sloppy wet, but this part probably doesn't change much either - again, there wasn't enough to really move the needle.

Sticky snow is cheaper - more gallons per minute at a given temperature means denser snow that doesn't till as nicely, but lasts longer, builds up quicker, and costs less.
