    Out of curiosity what is the reason for starting work before the end of the season?

    It's not as simple as an in-kind lift replacement. The project involves blasting, trail re configurations, and relocating existing mountain operations facilities. Best to get a jump on it ASAP.

    When will the valley house close for good. It usually does not run at the same time as bravo after a certain point in the season.

    Win has stated that Starting Monday 4/6 the lift will be closed as well as all the terrain south of Murphys. So if you want to ski steins, Mall, Lexis, Etc. you had better get it by next weekend. After that it will be Bravo and Heavens Gate for the spring combo. By the looks of the runout at Castlerock, that will not be that long for this world either. Better get out and get it!

    For those who missed it this week, the Mall is getting yet another t2b roll tonight by the groomers, according to the snow report.

    [So is Cliffs at ME... first roll of the season for that trail I believe]

    I did nott get to Cliffs, but I picked up a couple of great runs at the Mall. 😬

    Sure would have been nice to have made a second pass to even it out and fill in the holes. On the other hand Rim Run and Elbow were great.

    Lincoln Peak was good up top and even better where lightly tracked. Did some exploring Howie. You would have liked it.

    Mall was exactly as expected. What have I been saying about grooming the natural snow trails. Whatever. We only get to ski it for another week in it's original condition and before they modify it and they killed it. Oh well. It is what it is.

    Loved them. So much that she bought a pair. Yes they are 104 under foot. Basically the same as my Peacemakers. Great ski.

    Man,... the skiing on LP sucked compared to what you were skiing on ME. Wish I had made the trip over there. Is next weekend the last weekend at ME?
