I don't know the specifics. Chris just indicated that "this year water is a real problem." My guess it's simply due to the lack of rain this fall.
In that case I guess I'm pretty thankful for the rain we've been getting...

Agreed! I'd rather have more snow in the heart of winter than a little bit of early season fun.

I just want them to seed bumps as early as possible and open Little Joe (a given) and Tom's Treat for my daughter. Quite frankly, I'm not concerned with what happens on the rest of the mountain...

I feel like a traitor, but anyone interested in Mohawk on Friday if they actually open?
:lol: Interested but I have plans Friday too.

I love Mohawk! If by some miracle my boots and skis are back (seeing as I can't drop them off until tomorrow for mounting the bindings) I'd be interested. Then again, if I can't make it, I'm sure Brian will.
Sounds good to me, I NEED to slide again!!

You skied early season with Grassi there last year, right? What is their typical early season offering, i.e. what trail(s)? Arrowhead?
Yes we did and it was slim pickings if I remember correctly.
EDIT: according to my TR there was two options, Arrowhead and Wildwood on the 20th of December last year.

I thought Chute was open as well. I remember two runs being open on that part of the mountain. Slim pickins indeed. Whatever, its snow.... man-made snow.
Nope, Chute wasn't open. IIRC that's not a trail that's lit for night skiing anyway. There was two runs on that part of the mountain; Arrowhead and Wildwood, both accessible from the same triple (technically there's a small connector trail to get to Arrowhead).
Now that you mention it, I agree. All I remember was that it was pretty darn cold and snow guns were blazin'.

Changed the tread title to Mohawk. Anyone else interested?
I should be able to make it.

Looks like they are not opening until Saturday so is anyone game for Saturday night?
Bummer that I won't be able to squeeze out one more November day.

Just heard from my wife who headed over to Mohawk with the kids. She says she can see why they had to delay their opening. From what she could see there was some piles of snow down the middle of one trail that weren't connected together...

Thanks. You just sent me into a mild state of depression.
