The one I'm thinking of is right next to the ski patrol shack at the summit.

I think there was a bar at the summit. There is still a deck you can hang out on.

Butternuts last day is st pattys day. Whaleback and Granite Gorge have closed.

The GEMs card seems to keep the smaller colorado ski areas together. Plus im sure they dont need much more traffic that INDY would provide given plenty of CO skiers go to these areas to escape the mega crowds.

Strange news from Hickory, if there's no lift there'll be some kind of vehicle to get you up there. "Running a ski season without lifts is certainly a challenge and our exploration of alternatives has provided us with a new Hickory partner. We are working with and autonomous vehicle company...

Ha. I really don't understand what Matt is saying, in addition to Bluebird they managed to get Sunbrook Canyon and Sundance running between 11:00 and 12:00. MT snow was savvy enough to use telecommunications to constantly update their Twitter feed with lift openings, wind, and snow totals. it...
