Well, let's hope for Friday then, eh?

Next Wednesday looks like a definite based on the forecast too.

Not good.

Just heard back from Chris. It's not looking good for this weekend. He's leaning towards Friday the 7th at 3 pm which wipes out Next Wednesday night too. I'm hoping that's a case of underpromise/overdeliver.

Let's hope that a slow start=longer late season.

Unlikely. The end of March is usually it.

Nighttime temps look pretty good starting Thursday and through the weekend so hopefully they can get open in time for next Wednesday. It's my understanding that water is a big concern this season. That's pretty depressing. Just imagine if it gets super cold and they don't have the water to make a ton of snow? Oof. That's a kick in the nuts.

We need some dumps this season.

I'd be real surprised if they go with a mid-week opening day, so if they're not open this weekend I don't see Wednesday being much of a possibility...

Well, Chris said a midweek opening is not out of the question. It simply depends on snow production.
