Is anyone at magic today and/or have an opinion on coverage of the non-snowmaking runs? Im skiing tomorrow, somewhere, possibly magic. I don't expect much leftover fresh but I'd like to ski redline, etc without it being completely sketch.
Thoughts?


Ive seen it in worse shape. Black, Witch, Heart of the Magician, and even Green line are absolutely loaded up. Surprisingly Twi and Goniff were the sketchy spots today.

Skied black at 4:30. Coverage was good. Normal sketch factor at the ledges. Entirely manageable.

Info up on their FB page yesterday that getting they're going to try and get the GREEN up and running, hopefully for next season, is a go!

The progress continues at Magic!

Are they grandfathered since it was never fully installed? I was expecting they would have to start from scratch and rip it down. Did they borrow some of Jay Peaks green paint?

Man. I kinda like Green Line the way it is. It's out of the way and is probably one of the more unique runs in the NE with the lift poles standing there silently.

Plus its got that nice huck in the middle.

They posted on FB that Greenline would stay open and I image unchanged. That said, more people will know - or be reminded of the trail - by riding the lift. But getting that lift running is important, especially for early season and for families with kids that are not ready for the summit. It will also help when there are races on Showoff. And it's been an eyesore and now looks pretty in Green!

Pretty good deals especially for locals. From a distance not sure if I would take the gamble yet on a season pass there for $499.

$499 even without stellar snowmaking for Magic is worth it however they've shown they are solid on that front now.
