Loon South Peak Expansion

Undercut is clear but needs to be graded.

And snowmaking added to ever be open as a clear cut trail. Faces directly into the NW winds. Undercut got blown out as a glade by those winds, no way it holds any natural for long now.

Maybe the idea is to use the profits from real estate sales to fund further skiing related work at Timber Town.

Skied Loon today. They probably got about 3in of snow after the rain froze up. Surface was hard pack with a bit of fluff on top. Everything was groomed and every trail had a few icy spots and some crowded areas. The south side has one trail top to bottom. the North East Express also has just one trail open. Flume and Upper Walking Boss are closed. It's a bit odd that Loon has chosen not to make snow on any expert trails at all this year. Just novice and intermediate trails.

Novice and intermediate are their clientele

It is getting old with just Sunset off the North Peak chair. They usually blow Upper Walking Boss earlier in the season. Upper Flume is usually last on North Peak.

Yeah, very odd on NP. Probably passing on it as they have most of their water directed to South right now. That will be better with 3 main routes open down it. Ight be enough to draw me Tuesday for a shorter drive, but K just has so much more open right now.

I may head to K tomorrow and hit Cannon and Loon later this week. They need more snowmaking time. K has been getting some natural, hopefully it didn't all blow off!

Loon was surprisingly good today, groomers turned up a good surface. Cannon was all about the front five on Saturday, several inches of heavy fresh. Visibility up top was maybe the worst I have ever seen, cannot see your hands bad.

Cannon day for me tomorrow, will post a report.
