Magic

Not sure Bill but you'll be happy to know the new glade is on the tamer side from what i've heard. I did not get over there. Our crew, well mainly my buddy Bob (tree expert) was working on overhanging limbs on the Black chair.

I suppose it would not hurt to bring it. Thanks!

Hey Rusty, do you know what the snowmaking strategy will be this winter? When to blow, where to blow, how much to blow, that sort of stuff. I know they are dealing with a limited resource in terms of water and an expensive resource called energy, so I'd expect judicious use.

Really impressed with Magic both with my visit last season and their work this offseason.
Had probably my best day of the season there last year.. I will be bringing friends there this year, hopefully they will bring their friends and so on.

That’s great to hear Bob! Exactly what the mountain needs.

Bill, I don’t think even Magic management knows that yet. Snowmaking as we all know is tricky. Really all depends on mother nature. I do know they plan on putting snow on the hill as soon as the forecast will be favorable.

They will be replacing all the gaskets in the pump house in the up coming weeks as well. Fewer leaky flanges will mean better pressure & more water up on the mountain.

So Rusty, is this new glade an on map glade or something else? Looking forward to coming back to Magic again this year. Will bring converts!

I believe it will eventually get on the map but I doubt for this year. More than likely would help it ski better if more skiers ski it. The Hallows has skied magnificently since it was put on the map.

& thanks Beetle, love hearing this!

Where is it located on the mountain?

 

[RustyGroomer]

Not exactly certain as I was not over there but somewhere near Up Your Sleeve I believe. Someone feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.
