A Change is In the Air.
It's a cold and slightly foggy morning on the mountain but I think it'll be another day of good turns on the hill, and we should see the weather clear somewhat as the morning progresses. We've had a dusting of snow overnight, the current temp is minus 3 and the wind is a moderate northerly, giving a wind chill of about minus 10 up the top. The wind is expected to increase during the morning.
The snow makers are in full swing, adding some nice dry snow to the surface of the groomed runs. And all going well, Huey will be adding a healthy dose of natural snow on top, starting later tonight and continuing through tomorrow. Stay tuned.
Today will see a Hike Park opened at the bottom of the Big D, while the main Big D Park features will be constructed over the next few days. The lift will be closed until the build is completed and the exciting new world is ready for action.
Rug up for the wind chill and have another fun one out there.
Cheers Bill
