for what its worth they are running a Winch Cat on SuperStar right now (4:40 EST) I'm sure they are just gauging depth.

Its kinda cool watching them work at dusk like this with the lights from the people and cat.
2-3 mins after I posted that the camera changed from color to black-and-white. All I can see is a big ball of light traveling up the trail, the cat's lights are blinding the camera haha.

So now we got the answer. They only need about 64 hours. And it's been marginal the whole time.

"...the mood is celebratory here at The Beast where we received final confirmation from the FIS on Wednesday that the snow surface on Superstar will be ready to host the Xfinity Killington Cup on Thanksgiving weekend."

From snow report this am.

There was some talk about them having to take it down for the world cup broadcast. Seemed rather silly to me because it would be a pretty crappy way to view the race, but maybe thats why?
