More Snow

We've seen more natural snow this week to add to the base with another few inches falling tonight and tomorrow. All the snow is adding up; we're close to being 100% open. The park staff has been busy building the super pipe this week, it is quite the operation to watch. The new Zaugg pipe cutter makes the cat it is attached to seem small, which is quite a feat. The building of the pipe is done, but if you want to see how big the pipe cutter is, it has been parked at the end of the shop's yard closest to Lower Meadows.

The snow this week has been great fun to ski. Skiing powder early in the week and fast packed powder today under blue bird skies , as a former racer I made some fast rounders early in the day. The snow stayed solid all day, and I think that it will all weekend with the cooler temps. The grooming staff has been doing great work every night, I can see the winch on True Grit right now getting it ready for tomorrow. Hope to see you out on the hill this weekend.
