A FB groomers group page post from last night had a winch cat operator from K posting a through the windshield pic of snow farming from lower Skyelark to push over to Superstar - K may very well (officially atleast) be down to just Superstar come their reopening on Saturday.....

Forget that, check K-Zone from last weekend. Mid Skylark was down to a slush strip. At least SS still looked solid coverage-wise.

Saturday is looking like the better day now, some showers in the morning but the sun looks like it will be shining on superstar in the afternoon.

I'm done.... I was hoping to get one more weekend but chores and a nagging muscle pull got me thinking to call it a season. A good one I would say, lots of great times on the slope that will put a smile on my face for just thinking about them.

Can't wait till the start of the next season.

I'm debating trying to squeeze in a few hours before the rain Saturday or waiting until next weekend. Next weekend looks nice as of now, but we're pretty far away still.

Well, K was mostly sunny to start at 9 but quickly went to mostly cloudy. Great corn snow, not too wet mush with the clouds. Couple pics:

Very nice, indeed. Unfortunately, this weekend promises to be yet another washout. It looks like they should have no problem doing a few more weekends, at least.
