They fire them up tomorrow night. Looks like there is a good chance at T-day weekend at least...

I might try and make my first day(night) for that!
That would be the icing on the cake, I'll be happy for any local skiing though.

Looking very promising for the 28th. Opening plan is Canyon Run, Nor’easter, Temptor, Stinger, Exhibition and Little Joe. If the weather stays cold, they'll try to open with more. Plenty of time to seed bumps. 
Think COLD!
So who's in for the day session and who's in for the night? I'm definitely out during the day. Night might even be a stretch, but if I can pull it off, I'll head over.

I'm in for both sessions.
I'll probably be there on Saturday too.

You're not core enough.
I might bring Abby up there that day to get her season started. My dilemma is going to be Sunday the 30th. If there are bumps on Temptor, it's going to be very difficult to not ski Sundown and drive to Hunter instead. Great problem to have.

The Accuweather 15 Day and the NWS 7 Day both suggest snowmaking temps at night right up to Thanksgiving. At this rate, we might see at mountain that opens pretty damn near 100%.
This cold weather is ruling it right now! I hope it stays around!
BTW - I fixed your quote for ya... 8)

I have to imagine that Chris is going to do everything possible to get Temptor seeded:

I don't think lack of snow will be any problem, that's for sure. Water is holding up well as I understand it. Seeded bumps in November will be an amazing feat. I'm sure they could do a soft opening this weekend if they wanted to, but I'd rather wait a week and have them open with a ton of terrain, seeded bumps and a full on terrain park for the rats.
This weather has been ideal for them. I'm so pumped.

If I make it, it will be with my 4y/o Breckin. He is itching to get out almost as much as me. He has been walking around the house in his ski boots the past two days.
