DAMN! I wish i knew this cold snap was coming. I would have set my schedule differently. It would be sweet to be skiing now.

Can't believe they fired them up, it's April 6 ! Unreal.

Pics they show only have *1* gun running tho. I'm assuming they have more going, but when I saw the link to the pic on their site, I expected to see real guns blazing. :)

Covering up a big thin spot over there. The skiing has been pretty good this last 2 weeks. It's a great place to practice the bumps, most of the top runs where in good shape and all corned up.

I would think that it is more of a marketing ploy than anything else. They have plenty of snow to push around to cover any bare spots and if they were really going to make snow it would be done at night when the temps are not marginal.

Just got back. Pretty much about 3" of pow over SOLID bulletproof. Skiable, but the moguls where solid ice, top ones where where still pretty big, middle ones where good. It would be great if it warmed up.
