Ski Sundown (night): Sunday, 1/21/2007

[Greg]

I can't see any reason right now why I wouldn't be there.

 

[Greg]

I think I'm going to take this week off as I skied yesterday and will be skiing on Friday. Looks like they will get some extended snowmaking windows in the foreseeable future so I expect the 24th to be great! Praying for moguls on Nor'easter and Gunny by then...

Probably not a bad idea to hold of on this week in that case. They should be able to really blast the guns this week, the weather forecast looks pretty good for that. Looks like they should be able to blow all day tomorrow! I'm wondering if they'll be able to start the guns up at all during the day today. The temp and humidity both have been falling fast this morning, the wet-bulb is now below 28.

I don't plan on making it this there tomorrow either, but I will be there tonight and Thursday.

Thursday might be possible. I might make some early morning turns at Southington on Sunday morning as I am crashing at a friends house in Southington on Saturday night.

I might be there for friday night, but right now I am in the rest and recovery mode after lots of skiing/driving this past weekend.

 

[bvibert]

As usual on Tuesdays and Thursdays I'm not sure if I'll be sliding or working...

Sweet!

OPEN TODAY FROM 9AM-10PM. SNOWMAKING IN PROGRESS...REMEMBER YOUR GOGGLES.

 

[Greg]

Air temp is down to 28 here (I'm at home today). It looks like they will have a solid 48 hours of snowmaking temps at least, and quite possibly round-the-clock through the weekend. This is what I've been talking about all season, folks. You just wait to see what the result is come this time next week!!! 1/24 is gonna rock! I'm considering Sunday night as well.

Took my daughter to her afternoon class at Sundown today (at 1 p.m.) and they had all the guns blasting away! Check it out:

Nice! When I was there tonight they weren't blowing on any of the open slopes, except for one gun going on Stinger. They were blowing the crap out of Gunny though and I heard they had a bunch of guns going on Sensation over at the Sunny-Side learning area. I tried to take some pics of the snow-making effort on Guny, but I'm too tired to see how they came out now...

 

[ALLSKIING]

Nice! Sunday night anyone?

Looks like I will be there..You going to be around?

I'll try. Probably not until 7 pm. You sticking around through the night? Thread title changed.

I don't think I'll make Sunday night, but the conditions should be pretty good by then. It was a bit on the slick side last night, but I imagine they were able to resurface all the open trails last night and through today. At the rate they're going I expect to see some new terrain open real soon. Just looked at the website and they expect Gunbarrel by Friday!

I had trouble taking a picture of the Gunny snow-making efforts last night, but here's my best shot...

Nice. I'm pretty sure I'll be there, but will firm it up over the weekend.

All of the Sunnyside learning area opened today. Hopefully Gunny for tomorrow. Then all we need is those Nor'easter BUMPS!
