Sundown's opening tomorrow with 6 trails including a couple blues and "blacks". I'll probably head over for a couple hours of night skiing around 7:30. They're open until 10 PM.

Greg ... check the boards before you leave. If the Christmas Decorating Facist releases me from my duties early I'll pm you and head up. (probably around 4 from here)

You do mean Sundown, right? Cuz that's where I'm going. ;) I'll take some pics, but it'll be at night so I'm not sure how they'll come out...

Trail update:

Easier Trails Listing: Little Joe
More Difficult Trails Listing: Canyon Run, Nor'easter, Exhibition
Most Difficult Trails Listing: Stinger (with 12' double barrel rail, 16' flat bar, 16' butter box, 20' flat bar and 24' down-flat-down), Temptor

Look at all that junk on Stinger. :blink: Could it be that Stinger will be the new "terrain park" this season and Gunbarrel may return to it's days of old as CT's best bump run? Brian do you know the scoop?

Didn't see that, I actually didn't get to ski at all... :( I'll try to find out about the terrain parks next weekend when I'm there. Was all that crap on Stinger, or was it really on exhibition at the bottom of Stinger? As much as I'd like to have Gunbarrel back to its formal glory I'd hate to see Stinger ruined, since its only about wide enough for the features... :roll: I'll bet you once Gunbarrel gets some snow on it the terrain features will get moved back over to there...

Nope. All that junk was top to bottom on Stinger. It would be a train wreck if they put all that on Ex.

I just read the following in an email from realconditions.com regardnig changes for Sundown this season:
realconditions.com said:
Expanded and regraded beginner area. More terrain features in 3 parks on Stinger, Exhibition & Sensation trails.

Looks like Greg may be right, Gunbarrel will be spared this year? I fear for Stinger though, that is or was a good trail...
