Trouble with you is the trouble with me,
Got two good eyes but we still don’t see!
We had been cleaning the.stake in the morning and before our 1pm snowplan meeting. Overnight Friday we got 6" and then another 6" by 1pm.
We have decided to do it differently going forward and started yesterday afternooon. We will clean the stake once a day at 3:45pm. That way one can see what got overnight and cumulatively through the day.
How many times a day to clear the snow stake. Now that is a good problem to have😆😆
What very cool is watching the 1 week time lapse. Too bad it does not go further out than 1 week.
I will miss your posts, Howie. Hope you can get up at least a few times.
Any word about possible expansion latter this week for the Valley House side. The pictures that I see from SB looks great. but if they go into this weekend with only two lifts running it could be a shit show with the amount of skiers they may.
Seems inevitable that they will open the Valley House trails with just natural snow but i am not sure that would mean running the lift.
If we can get SB->Fling locked in with snowmaking, I would guess that VHQ would spin for the weekend, and I wouldn't be surprised if patrol dropped the ropes on Twist, Moonshine, and Lower SB->Racer's. But the weekend is still a few days out. SB->Fling is a lot of real estate to cover, but with cold temps coming in for the weekend, it very well may come together quickly and nicely. Also, we're ready to make snow on Pushover off Gate House to expand beginner terrain, but that will take some time to get ready. Don't want to open that au'natural, being a beginner route and such. Once we make snow on it, it'll probably be left to cure for a time before its groomed. A lot of variables between now and then... but so far so good.
Oh I'll be up more than a few times, just not every weekend and holiday as in the past. Another reason is that my daughter doesnt get off of school for presidents week, and I couldnt resist booking a cat ski trip in BC for myself that week, what with the exchange rate being so favorable.
