Speaking of communication from the mountain, it appears that the replacement part is on its way from France!

Although Saturday was not ideal with long lines on the service road, Am Ex, and Ursa, it's been snowing so much, this season, 'm going to have to re-learn how to ski on boilerplate next season :).

Last Saturday, I spent a lot of time at the bottom of Black Bear waiting on the singles line for Ursa. I think I averaged maybe two runs an hour so about 15-20 minutes on the line. Didn't try Snow Bowl. Did the runs off Shooting Star which was much shorter although not attended at times. It wasn't a mob scene, just long lines consistent with holiday weekends.

Unfortunately, no gondola again this weekend.

Do they set up light stands on generators for this?
They have in the past.

I believe it's the 24hrs of Stratton charity fundraiser this coming weekend. Which historically raised a bunch of $$ for local charities/organozations as well as having a very full field of participants

I had to bow out twice during a great February but should be able to hit it hard to the end here. Sounds like the gondola should be back in business before the weekend.
