Good to hear! Did you actually make it up to the mountain or were your observations only from in town?

Site crew are working overtime. I just left the site ( just before 6 PM) and they are still working.
That's pretty much standard for jobs like this where the construction season is short.

Yeah, that's true for all sorts of projects going on up here right now. Certainly not worth drawing attention to.
Masskier, any steel delivered yet?

No, However the project is on schedule. It will be another week or two before the steel arrives.

Vide of Bike & Brew. It has some good shots of the crowd for those who want to gauge attendance.
Meh. Not a huge crowd but not a tiny one either. IIRC it's relatively new....

I thought it was appropriate for a first-year event. I wonder if they would get more people if it was held on NEMBAfest weekend?
I thought they did it a few years ago as well. Like in 2011.
This was the fourth or fifth consecutive year the event has been held, it used to be more of a joint event with Kngdom Trails but not so much anymore. They also used to set up a very large jump for a professional jump demonstration but that didn't happen this year either. This years attendance was noticeably down from past years but that should not be a surprise. There is no longer any connection between the resort and the community.
That's the sad truth. I recall it being a decent event and a nice thing for everyone to attend.
I also could not help but notice that a lot of those on the video, and in attendance, had "STAFF" shirts on and were likely Qemployees.

I didn't realize that it had been going on for a few years. My bad.
The drop in attendance was certainly a foreseeable consequence of kicking KT out of the sandbox.

Burke has a new promotion. 1% of season pass sales in August and September will be donated to the LSC scholarship fund.

It was working yesterday. Maybe it melted in the heat (mid-eighties is considered hot up here in the NEK).

Camera is back up. If they aren't on lunch break, it doesn't seem like anything is happening today. Does the concrete need time to set?
I imagine that the concrete does not time to Qure.
I see equipment moving around.....

I think it is just hard to see what they are doing right now since they are working inside the foundation (bottom floor/parking garage). They are likely putting in the floor as well as supports for the upper floors.
They are also likely working on the earthmoving/sitework on the other side of the building where the cam can't see.
