On the bright side .. all the snowmaking catch basins are again full.
Hope they still have sufficient compressor power laying around.
Gonna be a long recovery effort to match the nirvana of 10 days ago.
As a comparison, Vail East lost >40 trails.

my understanding is that snowmaking is done after tomorrow except perhaps for superstar. really have to give kudos to mike & co. the snowmaking the last 2 weeks has been very impressive. where things had been looking sad, now it looks like it's gonna be an awesome spring. very beastly guys!

Superstar was amazing this afternoon and the current assault on it is nothing short of impressive.
