Oh, fantastic.  Thanks.  i bet you have "insider info".

Yup. That’s how I knew about the bridge being open.

The fact that they were even on...on Nov 10th still blows my mind

No no no and no.  Stick to leaf peeping 

I’m not saying it’s the right move, but if temps don’t look conducive long term, but you still want to try to have something open for Thanksgiving, the Vista Chair offers a decent solution and doesn’t throw a ton of snowmaking $$$ out the window.

Only blew for the Vista lift which is fine with me. Good start. Nice to see snow.

It’s happened earlier in years past.

Vista is harder to get open than lower Main Street. It’s a lot wider and the snowmaking cannons are farther apart.  The main test will be midweek. If they can get 36 hours of blowing and another 36 hours in early next week all systems go. The one year they opened with just vista lift the line for Vista was prohibitively long within 2-3 runs.

Vista doesn't need - and usually won't - open with full width. That said, if they were going to try for a Vista Lift opening, you'd see the other guns on Vista running too, not to mention Come Around and Easy Out.

It was the first night of snowmaking with marginal temperatures...wait until midweek if temperatures stay as forecasted and they’ll light up lower Main Street and midway..all out assault..operation blizzard 2.0

Yep. If they were blowing for keeps last night, you'd have seen at least Comearound and Easy Out and the old guns on Vista between the fans on.

If they weren’t, then why would they leave them on for 12 hours? 

[Deleted]

If they were going for real, why wouldn't Main Street have gotten any attention at all, not even the couple of fans over there? Much less not starting anything but fans.

Maybe I can get another gift card for when they send up 1/3 of chairs empty despite 500 people in line in the early season.

Nope, you’re a season pass holder now.

This was the funnest day. I'll never forget when I made my own singles line and AtomicSkier told me I was on the cusp of being banned from Blue.

Same. It was a great day. First day is always good just to be on home snow and hang with everybody in the lot again.

That wasn’t opening day.

That was December 10th, two weeks into the season.

I thought it was Salty's first day? No? or did he go to Cameltoe before that?

I was there both opening day and 12/10. I also made some trips to "Cameltoe" around that time, I think. Opening day was awkward because I didn't know any of you and made eye contact with Atomic a few times, then he yelled "Salty" and I was introduced to 10 or 15 people at the same time. Fun times.

Ah for some reason I thought that was your first day. Maybe it was because it was the first time that I met you since I wasn't there opening weekend except Sunday afternoon.
