Next weekend looks better if that trend continues Blue could open the first weekend in December which would be nice. 1 Quote

Non-frozen precipitation on Tuesday, and as of right now, a significant amount, Quote

If they make snow and lose some, as long as there is still snow left on the ground they are ahead of schedule. I also think that they have proven that they are willing to take a little risk and be aggressive with snowmaking based off of last year. Edited November 16, 2023 by Dirtwolf 1 Quote

However, it did go colder i think, and based on this, i see shit getting fired up for real Wednesday pm. 1 1 Quote

Rain, clouds, more clouds, showers are all a recipe for high humidity levels, regardless of those temps. No chance in Hell, unless they're gonna open for fast-grass. But I'm willing to break out the rock skis for some fast-grass! Need some clear, crisp, cold nights and no clouds to trap the moisture. Edited November 17, 2023 by indiggio 5 Quote
Johnny Law Posted November 17, 2023 Report Posted November 17, 2023 They seem to be in 100% confident they will get open next weekend. I don't ever recall them being so upfront about anything really but maybe with their new capacity they can make Vista go in a couple of hours. Still assuming best case they have only 3 nights at best next week. That would be mad impressive. 2 Quote

Yeah, with the e-mail and YT video, they seem pretty confident in their snowmaking capabilities, that or they're smoking some goooood shit up there and need to pass it along! It is impressive they're so open with all the new snowmaking equipment and systems on the various social media sites, way more than with prior management. Perhaps someone's finally listening to the masses!?!? Next week's gonna be interesting for sure! 2 Quote

With prior prior management, you had to wait until the brochure came out to find out about new improvements and I was calling 1-800-235-2226 everyday for snowmaking updates. 2 Quote
saltyant Posted November 17, 2023 Report Posted November 17, 2023 Buckmans has my skis and new boots in the workshop. If I don't get them back by next Friday to ski Vista, I might be calling them every hour for updates. Quote
