It'll be a better watch once they get the cosmic lighting installed

Yeah, that's Frontier Alley. I bet Homestretch is good to go after the last 2 days

I don't think there's any chance they don't open on Friday. Forecast isn't looking super awful so far, chance of rain only 50%. Saturday forecast is currently clear during the day then rain beginning at night. Maybe they close Sunday for rain with 80-90% chance and more than half an inch of rain forecast. Hoping any forecast changes are for the better . . .

I guess the crane is much more in the foreground than I thought at first, and is blocking it.

Liftoff! First piece is in the air

Is it my eyes playing tricks on me, or did they remove one of the two terminal supports?

Crane is on-site on the Vally cam.

If the production up the rest of the hill looks anything like those whales on the school hill, I like our chances. EDIT: Rain being the xfactor though. I could see them holding off even with enough snow if the rain looks too bad

They're definitely giving it hell on Homestretch/lift area now. Both of the new guns pointed at the OG6 are ripping, and it looks like they have a portable gun over by the construction area pointed back toward the lift as well.

Haul rope is definitely on-site, and partially strung. Not sure if it goes all the way up to the summit and back to this spot, since it didn't look to be over the pulleys on the left as it is on the right side.

Coming soon to a mountain near you

FYI, in case anyone (else) was looking to drop ‘em off for a very last minute tune, Blue is currently 2 weeks out. Dropped off a set that needs a bit of repair but elected to keep the main skis when I saw they were giving a return date of 12/3, I’ll get them waxed later

Valley learning hill too. They're really getting after it

Right? Opening day Burma and back? Unprecedented!

Probably want to keep the snow off lower main until the new lift is done? And also provide a route (especially a green one) to connect top lodgers with the other open terrain. Plus with the gun upgrade last season on Burma it's cheap in resource cost to lay down snow, like Coming Soon.

Definitely blowing on Paradise, can see on the tubing cam

Game on.

I could see them leaving that piece further back and offscreen since it should be significantly smaller. I bet the sides are where they are because of their length and inability to easily move them over later.

Action by the lower terminal, a ute just came ripping in and a dude jumped out. Wouldn't be surprised to see the crane come in soon.

Hopefully they can get the big pieces on the upper terminal today and move the crane down to the valley to tackle the lower terminal tomorrow, then blow like hell without having to worry about the equipment.

Cement truck just rolled through the frame headed out from over by the quad. Wonder what they were pouring out of frame that way.

Unload terminal may be going together? Tough to tell from the Valley cam, but looks like something tall on top of the ridge (crane?) that wasn't there before:

Flurries on the webcam are good for stoke

Camelback blew last night too. Pics on their FB page. Nice for stoke that everyone is getting after it first chance they got.
