lilmill Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 this is impressive, bear is keeping up with boulder and progressing every year. too bad my foot is too swollen to even fit in my boots
neutral Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 I just drank a beer in celebration to the guns being fired up.
roundtop03 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 Yeah Kevin Ill have my camera..im trying to ride and get a lot of footy should be a good time for sure!!.. and its not that its that bad papasteeze, its just not my fit. I need a mountain that has the same ideas as me or atleast that lets me do what I need to do to put the effort in to make GOOD events.

petter369 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 good night of snowmaking but why did they turn off all the guns already, its still 25 degrees
ColoradoHigh Posted November 19, 2008 Author Report Posted November 19, 2008 good night of snowmaking but why did they turn off all the guns already, its still 25 degrees The water temp might be a bit to warm. 25 degrees might be too warm with warm water. Petter, the wing bowl was fun last week.
Saurus Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 lets pour beer in the pond and make beer snow
ColoradoHigh Posted November 19, 2008 Author Report Posted November 19, 2008 lets pour beer in the pond and make beer snow Lets put cheese burgers into the pond and make cheese burger snow....*drools*
ColoradoHigh Posted November 19, 2008 Author Report Posted November 19, 2008 Chippy great idea..and stopping snowmaking with a temperature of 25 degrees is weaksauce.. I'm craving a big mac...
JibHonk Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 Friday everybody should bring a bag of ice an dump it into the pond
Rowsdower Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 Well the ground was obviously cold enough. If it does warm up a bit later they should be able to have laid down enough base over the course of the week to carry them over. Yay for early winter, lets hope it stays this way.
BC-Mark Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 11/19/08 Update: We had a good night of snowmaking last night. Our temperatures fluctuated between 26F and 29F during the night and the team and system worked great. The water is still 46F so that is hurting us a bit but it should get better each night. Good production tonight will be critical for a Saturday opening. We hope to start around 6pm this evening and go as long as we can in the morning. We do have to shut down earlier than normal due to the warm water. Once the sun starts peaking out we shut down to avoid making a huge wet mess. I will update again tomorrow and hopefully will be able to share some great news!
petter369 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 The water temp might be a bit to warm. 25 degrees might be too warm with warm water. Petter, the wing bowl was fun last week. haha glad you enjoyed it, especially cause you won the flyers basket and that painting...a saturday opening would be soo sick. i guess we'll just have to keep a weathered eye on when snowmaking starts tonight. and yes that was an intentional pun
BC-Mark Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 We hope to fire up around 8pm tonight. For those of you watching the webcams, don't get used to the lights, the WFMZ news crew is here shooting some footage, as soon as they are done, we are going dark again. Next update will be tomorrow morning. Let's hope I am able to confirm an opening!
k2rider2690 Posted November 20, 2008 Report Posted November 20, 2008 i was up there today and it is looking good...there is alot more snow than i expected to see after only one night...here are some pictures http://community.webshots.com/album/568786251gMetyr
mollyskeez Posted November 20, 2008 Report Posted November 20, 2008 the webcams make it look like they have less snow.
