Does that look to be the weekend plan as well?
Letting the water drain out of the snow on Great Northern. Should be groomed and open by Friday.

Looks like they opened the Ridge Run section of GN. Disappointed there appears to be no effort to bring the Snowdon Quad online. If they don't get that running they can't expand over to Ramshead to get that open for the World Cup.

We may need a fixed grip with the winds this weekend.

No more "porta potty slog" - you can ski GN to Ridge Run, to GN, to either Mouse Trap, or the GN hairpin, to Lower Bunny!!! Making snow on middle Chute, but not upper Chute or upper Bunny!

Yesterday there was snowmaking on Bunny Buster as well as Middle Chute and lower Chute. The problem with the broken pipe has been fixed and the hole has been filled in and you can't tell where it was.
