The sheave was fixed around 2:30. It was on tower 12 I think. I skied lower bird land a couple of time and they were working on it for a few hours. It is working this morning and we should be all set. That kind of thing happens occasionally. 2 degrees this morning. Brrrr again.
How was LP today? I spent the day at ME. It was pretty empty over there. Lifts were sheltered from the wind for the most part, but boy was it whipping at the summit (only took 1 run up there mainly to see what the wind was like). Walt's was a nice warm-up run this morning since GMX was delayed. Exterminator was pretty nice despite the thin cover. Did that a few times. Overall a good day, but some fresh snow sure would be nice!
That's what they used to do.....
Yea...but it has been ages since they've done that so I was pretty surprised to see that gun and hose over there. No sign that it was actually used though as the headwall looked like its normal rocky bare self!
There was a windchill advisory in my weather app for Saturday that disappeared this AM… but now my app says there’s another windchill advisory for Sunday, but it ends at 10am. Today definitely felt cold but not windy. Murphys was the most wind blown of any trail I skied. That said, I had Hottronnics running in my boots, plus boot gloves on, plus toe warmers in the boot glove and I had to quit at 2:50 PM because my feet were frozen. it was cold today!
Not sure at LP...but at ME the lifts were pretty sheltered with the direction the wind was coming from. Only felt the wind on the lifts 2 places at ME...very top of NRX and maybe the top couple towers on Summit. Wind was whipping hard at the summit. On trail...you felt the wind all along Rim Run (decent size drifts and rollers on skier's right as well). The wind was also pretty strong blowing up Elbow. Didn't feel the wind on Exterminator or Looking Good though and felt no wind on any trails below mid-mountain.
.. but all is not lost 
Exactly. I saw them do it in the 2007-2011 era (give or take).
Yeah. And he hasn’t said much about the upcoming Thursday/Friday storm, so maybe that’s a good sign.It appears Josh Fox scared Kenan away
