Can't they open the whole mountain in 5 days of around the clock snow making?

I think it's more like two or three. The amount of guns on that mountain is downright astounding. It's crazy.

as long as they open before january, dont have to close in the middle of the season, and make somewhat of a good park i will be happy.

yup 90 hours of marginal to good snowmaking is all they need im pretty sure. we definitely have one of the sweetest snowmaking systems around. id like to see them move a couple of the mobile guns once the mountain is open and just pound the jumpline with snow so we can have something reasonably larger before like mid february.

 

Temps in the thirties, twenties, and teens this coming up week! Could there be jumps on opening day?

maybe a smaller one. they will probably try and get a good base going before pushing snow for bigger jumps.

Black Bear is actually lined with wheel guns at the moment :)

Does this mean by sunday there won't be a hike park, but a park with a running chairlift?

timberline used to be skinnier and more of a winedy skier cross style trail with berms and rollers and a few years ago they widened it and made it flat. it used to be way more fun... still one of my favorite trails aside from the park.

i dunno, i kinda like the double fall line thing on timberline...makes for some interesting turn shapes.

My guess is they're going to wait until they start pushing snow around to see what they have to work with before they post what the set up will be.
