T-Minus one day until ME opens. I remember a pretty sick opening day I had there a few years back.

Interested as well. Wondering what if any nattys will be opening. Stein's is open with whales it seems. Happy that I held onto the reservation for the weekend. With Ellen joining the mix, the weekend looks solid! Good weather too.
The whales on steins aren’t that tall yet, but the gun powder was pretty silky and nice. Wind right now is blowing the snow off most of the trails though. Upper mountain is not too windy, but from allyns lodge down is pretty brutal.
Looking forward to Ellen tomorrow!

Pretty much all of Gadd and LP aside from Paradise opened up! Whoot!
Bit of a change with snowmaking plans for LP. We had the overflow valve on Stein's rupture last night as we were starting up after the curtailment. Really unfortunate since the temps were so good for snowmaking. This is one of the issues with a curtailment as the pipes are most vulnerable as pressure builds up on a restart. We have a 1/2 curtailment again tonight. Some snowmaking can continue but we have to ramp down from 5pm to 9pm. The forecast has changed a bit and it looks like we will be out of snowmaking Monday and into Tuesday. So we will finish up Lower Snowball and Racer's Edge and then move to Organgrinder and Ripcord where the temps look best over the weekend. Possibly moving up to Looking Good and Elbow over at ME after we more off of the terrain park.

North was great this morning. Was on the first North Ridge chair. Exterminator, bravo, encore, hammerhead were great until late morning. Lightly tracked Wind buff for a few and then rode great after it was chopped up.
Groomers were rough until the sun on em. Still firm and fast.
Didnt make it over to South. Legs done by lunch

I heard that GMX was running on diesel today. Can somebody verify this?

Agreed on the nice job if it is cr (cr or spills were my first thoughts on that photo).
Although I bet cover on the cr trails is better than most of the trails I’ve been skiing. I just don’t think my legs could handle the hike right now otherwise I’d be checking them out.

It’s back up and running, but it’s not running very fast. Not a surprise to see it be on mechanical hold.
