It would have been nice of them to put it on the snow report so any passholders in the area could have got a few runs in

It wasn’t for Magic to do, it was the person who rented the mountain - they are boss for the day. From what I understand they are locals so probably knew who they were going to send a last minute invite to.

As of last weekend they were planning to, with equipment to be moved from east side now that Carumba is done. Not there this weekend so can’t comment on what has actually happened. Also don’t know how the pond refill is going - it’s been a bit cold and that locks up recharge flow. They need a lot of water for Wizard-Talisman-Wizard.

But they need at least Talisman done for spring.

Heck, they have a big U14 race on Talisman, that is kind of a right of passage for the U14's of the Southern VT Council coming up in a few weeks that I am sure they want to host

Wizard was groomed ttb yesterday. The chute skied fine, a little thin and firm in a couple of spots, but fine. Tali and sorcerer were great. Didn't ski Hans, but it looked okay from the bottom looking up. No sign of any snow making. Pond looked down, but I'm not a regular so I can't really judge how low it is. Great day, not a bad run. Lots of fresh in the trees, trails were tracked out.
