The latter seems to be the better option, BUT I'm not sure how well you could seed a bump run if the snow is of frozen/loose granular consistency. |
Bromley doesnt seed to my knowledge. they just leave the east side more or less alone and let it bump naturally. Although, i have seen a course setup on the Pabst trail that is skiers left. Didnt seem seeded to me though.
But to answer your question, my opinion is that in late march just leave them. Close them off on rough days and open them on warm ones. Springtime is for bumps. Even people that dont usually seek them out seem to WANT to ski bumps on a warm day. Its soft, naturally slower and damn fun.
This thread has me jonesin pretty bad already. Thanks Jaywbigred.
