Opening Day
by Loafman138 » Mon Nov 28, 2011 11:47 am
Hey Chris I read somewhere that you guys had done some trail clearing so you they could open with a little less snow. Any idea what trails those were? Please tell me Wardens Worry Black Beauty and Firefly got some work. Also, planning to be up for your opening. Wondering what the plan was for trails... Obviously it has a lot to due with Natural snowfall I'm sure... But any plans for additional trails along with the ghost? Weaver maybe? Thanks, see you soon

My call is Ghost to Weaver to TriColor to the stuff off the T (Silver Doctor, Blue Devil, Red Devil) then see what mother nature hands out and go from there...

Hopefully they can at least get Ghost and Weaver up in conditions. Maybe if we're lucky the guns will bury the smelt just like last year. An option either side of the Rangeley would more than satisfy me on opening day

All depends on the temps, waiting for them to drop

i thought you guys had a different weather pattern and could make snow anytime
i have often said opening before mid December is TOUGH... granted i want you to BUT it must cost big and return little

Indeed when we skied Sugarloaf the day before Txgiving there was some people there but I bet they sold 3 lift tickets total (to us). Seemed like Passholders by far were the majority.
