1 of 3 things will happen

 

#1. They will blow full force for however long they can.

 

#2. They will blow enough to test the new parts of the system and get all the kinks out for when there are favorable long term temps.

 

#3. They wont blow at all. They wont waste money and they wont get everyones hopes up too soon if it went back to warmer weather.

 

But #3 wont happen..... because I said so.

1 wont happen because all of the guns that can be moved are all sitting at the bottom of the triple. If they wanted to go all out now, the guns would already be out and ready to blow tonight. That leaves 2 and 3. It really doesn't matter which one that they do for the people who are looking to go ride. I would say we will know when they will blow as soon as those guns at the bottom of the triple get moved out onto the mountain.

 

PS. Hopefully they put most of those guns in one of the parks. Fill out every outlet on the water pipe in the park with movable guns. That would be sweet.

Guys please stop making comments about how Bear needs to make snow this very instant. They cannot make snow under these conditions. If they could they would. When the conditions are favorable and they can get enough snow down without it melting in a rain storm they will blow snow.

 

And hey whats wrong with Dec 10th?? Dec 10th is great for Bear Creek.

just because it is snowing outside does not mean that you can make snow. its 36 degrees here right now with snow falling and i guarantee you that if you tried to blow snow in these conditions it would result in a puddle of water.

i though that 28 was the max. temp. for snowmaking with the lowest humididty so they might not be able to blow on the 28 days
