Apparantly Opening Rumor is a huge undertaking. Rumor takes as much man power, water, and pressure as Hawkeye, Chateimac, Lies and Open Pit combined

There are some pretty big boulders that need cover on that thing.

So, for Friday, I figure I have 2 realistic options given that Plattekill is barely open and Windham and Belleayre don't really do it for me:

1) Drive 2 hours to a near 100% open Huntah. The crowds usually annoy me but should be light on Friday. Based on the last couple of weeks, the place should be in good shape and at least have some bump runs.

2) Drive 4 hours to a not nearly 100% open Gore (granted, much bigger mountain). If the glades were open, I wouldn't even consider the option. Not sure I want to drive that far for groomers. Gore does have some really good cruisers, though.

2.5) Elk - probably go there on Saturday so that's out.

Is Gore good enough for the extra 2 hours?
