How early are you guys aiming to start?

I'm still a very big maybe. Won't know until last minute so don't plan around me. Would prefer Friday, but maybe could do Thursday. Wednesday, no.

Saw you there on Sunday. Gave a yell, but I guess you didn't hear me.

It's looking less likely by the minute. Still hope, but it's fading...

panic/upper needles as well as skyeburst had a least a ribbon on it on Monday to make it continuous. The slog back on the crossover sucks though.

Here's the dealio with Superstar. They've been grooming three cats wide on the lower part and leaving some bumps on skiers right and the burly lines on skiers right (between towers 4 and 5). Otherwise lower SS is a groomed out mushfest. I skied it today on old Solly Guns and it was fun.
Lower skyelark probably wont be groomed any longer and has some really good lines as does middle O. I traded out the Guns for more narrow waisted skis last run on lower skyelark and it was skiing well.
