Hardy is on his way to the top of Mount Ellen to make the call. It looks like we will turn GMX at 9am this morning. We had a good night of snowmaking and the word from the radio is that the powder looks good from Rim Rum down Elbow to Spread Eagle to the base of the Summit Chair. The temps are warming up so we are taking the guns down to make sure we don't spoil the quality and will turn them back on if the temps come down tonight. The forecast for today is sunny and in the 40's. There could be some nice turns and we will get some pics on the web today. I'll have to learn how to post pics on MRV myself.

Winter has begun. Let's hope for a ton a snow and a long season.

See you at 9:00, assuming hardy makes the call.....

It is a go! I'm going to exercise Owner's rights and go up with Ski Patrol, so I will see you on the Summit. Happy skiing and riding to all and let's hope we have at least 150 more days, no rain and light winds. Here's to a great winter season.

Bravo! Thanks for these reports (although I am totally jealous). Leave some for me on Friday.

Well done! Hope everyone enjoys their runs today!!

Outstanding!!!
A round of applause and thanks to Win for keeping us informed by the minute!
Have a great day out there..............and save a little for those of us who can't make it out until friday......

of Summit Ventures for, say, 5 bucks, to get in on some of those Owner's rights ? Pretty please.....

And so it begins....

Congrats to Win, Hardy and the Mountain Ops team for being the first area in VT to open. Fantastic job!

Thanks for keeping us updated here and on AZ Win!

Great job all!
