BC-Mark Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 We are hoping the temperatures dip low enough around 11pm, as predicted, to allow for snowmaking tonight. We will be making snow at every opportunity and hope to open by mid to late next week if weather permits. To ease everyone's fears, the tubing park is ready for snow and the traffic through the base area is for the new hotel. We finished the grading of the runout early this week and we are all set to go. There is still some earth moving on the outside of the runout to create a parking area adjacent to tubing but that does not affect the slopes. As soon as the snowmaking cuts off the access through the base area, the trucks will go around the back side of the hotel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNU_rider Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 My god that is some of the best news I've heard today and just the image I needed to deal with the last day of classes, but let's hope they can pull together an opening as soon as possible! Also mark thanks for the update! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowsdower Posted December 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 Looks like they'll make the opening projected by Mark. Before Dec 7th... I don't remember Bear ever opening before that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC-Mark Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 We had a disappointing night of snowmaking last night. Got favorable temps at 11pm and had decent production until 2am. At 2am, the humidity spiked and the temperature rose and we began spraying water. We shut down quickly and waited for better conditions to arrive but they never swung back in our favor. The forecast looks like we can fire up around 4pm or 5pm tonight. Let's keep our fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowsdower Posted December 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 (edited) Hoping this next storm stays all snow in the higher elevations. The temp will be right around freezing so hopefully that little bit of elevation makes a difference.

Rowsdower Posted December 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 1-3 inches of snow then a coating of ice is still better than rain. The weather pattern now is dominated by short wave systems or individual storm systems. We get a short period of very cold dry weather behind storms. Then when a storm comes through it briefly thaws everything out and brings in moisture. Thankfully the warm ups aren't as devestating as last years, and we're getting real cold air behind storms instead of warm pacific air. The good and bad thing about these short wave type patterns is that they are very unpredictable. Just look at the temperature fluctuations on accuweather over a week long period. This is good because it leaves open lots of possibilities for what could happen. Bad because you are less certain about what will happen, which can be a good thing if long term conditions show a warming trend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
