Looks like this baby has wheels!

Local press has showed up, slowing down the load test, but they are lovin' the publicity. Nice paint on the bullwheel.
Arisen from the ashes!

I hope it goes well for them. I have been watching them actively all summer and fall via F-B
I hiked them in early August and 2 weeks ago. Mountain is shaping up for a small team and a mountain that needs so much T.L.C.

Incredible! Congrats. If you haven't read the interview of Sir Michael Bouchard. The man is brilliant, sensible, pragmatic and appears to have the financial means to pull this off. For a non-skier, he has amassed a tremendous knowledge of ski operations, his scientific background serves him well, his foresight, his relationship development with town and local organizations is well-done. Incredibly transparent. Plan to meet this fellow soon. He's no fool, still out to make a profit, by leveraging his real estate, but understanding that skiing is his #1 attraction. Cooperation with skimobile clubs, nordic operations and inviting in local businesses to help with equipment and offer other attractions will bring lots of money into the community from payroll to local businesses. I commend him and have high confidence he will succeed.

Very nice of you to invite him. Got to admit when I first heard of he and his plans I was skeptical. But I'm a big fan now. Love his videos.

And we are all very proud and appreciative of all the support you have given us to get here!

Per Facebook, Tenney started making snow for tubing last night.

Looks like management called an audible, borrowed fan guns due to diesel permits, I am happy they took steps to get something going! They need a long stretch of continued cold and a major dump of snow, wait....every mountain could use that!

Agreed! Great to see Mike & Co taking the initiative to make it happen. As we've said here numerous times, the transparency of their efforts and challenges definitely makes for a great feeling about what's going on!

Guess I should have held onto those two free passes I got right before the year it closed. 
Glad to see that Tenney is back!
