Mountain is pretty icy. They closed some trails due the comp. they are having this weekend. At least thats what it looked like. I didn't ask anyone but there was a bunch of events going on.

The post was about the mountain being 100% open as the web site states. IT IS NOT no matter what level the slope is. I love skiing at Sno, however I am getting tired of all their lies or whatever the reason is for the wrong information.

Not 100% open. I was there today. Easy street closed, Mainline closed, snake closed.

I felt the morning was dead but around noon it started to pick up. Seemed like alot of busses in the lot when I was leaving around 2pm

I forgot about lights as a con also. At lkeast until they change them if they really are or not we will have to wait and see.

Pros: They have a nice plan in place for the mountain. Con: They may be bitting off more than they can chew too quickly. (It should be great when all is complete though). Also the way they count trails is a bit crazy. Mainline is now counted as 2 trails since they have a terrain park there. Nordic shouldn't even be counted. It's the top of the mountain.

They did a nice job blowing snow while they had the weather. Very impressive. Too bad this weeks temps are predicted to be in the 50's. At least they took advantage of the cold while it was here.

What second floor? Where the old stairs were is going to be the end of zip rider. There is a stake in the ground at the top that say end zip rider.

I agree the trails were great the way they were. I didn't know that CB had a double square. The first I ever scene this was on the map that Sno's office has.

The office up there has a computer print out of it. I went in and asked if they had a new trail map and thats what they showed me. They didn't have enough of them to hand out but htey were fine with letting me look at it at the office window.

The reason all the people not being able to ski were on the slope is because they changed the rating on it. It is no longer a diamond it is now a square square. I don't know who else uses the 2 square system but this is the first I have scene it. Smoke was also down graded to a single diamond so there may be more skiers on that slope now.

Talked to a friend that works at the mountain. These new trails are a joke. Baby moose is behind the lodge for little kids learning how to ski. Zip is basically a very short connection trail. Snake and sidewinder should be the same trail. It actually gets two names because it crosses fast track. Rattler sounds like it has potential and glades is off of fast track. Not sure what the plan for that is since we don't really get that much natural snow here.
