The state of Superstar 2022

Post by Mister Moose »

With the large piles on Superstar, I thought it might be interesting to take photos of the spine as the year progresses. Here's photo 1.

Hope you started skiing at Killington in the spring like you've done in the past.

I have never seen snow that deep at the start of Preston's before, even if the mid 90s.

Deep

how does the top look? when I was there mid-Feb, it looked like it wasn't super high at the top of but that there was a ton of snow between Launch Pad and just below the top. this appeared to make the "hump wall" Thicker.

Tuesday April 12th. The top of the Mt Mike got a haircut. Rainy through mid morning, but enough traffic showed up in the afternoon to bump it up.

The other big build that happened is Great Northern. Impressive depths here as well.

Too bad they made all that snow in the second pic to keep the bubble going and it's broken.

They're still running the bubble on weekends, and that trail is also needed to access Ramshead, since they're keeping it open late this season.

How late is Rams running? They put out a lift plan for the next couple weeks?

I assume the 24th, but I've seen no such lift plan.
