There was no one even working on it last night. Skiing was pretty decent but mostly stuck to the Little Gap side due to the lines at the quad. Quote

Johnny Law Posted January 24, 2020 Report Posted January 24, 2020 I was up today from 930 to 1230 and no sixer. Some snowmobiles around but no action. Snow is super nice but the line gets pretty nuts 2 Quote

Says 36 of 40 runs open and 10 of 16 lifts. Navigating blues website is like an old Run DMC song. It’s tricky Expand They have had a VIP line at the quad a couple times this year. Didn't mean much, still had to wait the same as everyone else once past the gate. The conditions at blue on everything but sidewinder were very good today. Sidewinder was rock hard with cookies on top, not much fun. Barney's was a little slick in between the bumps but still fun. Skied the sleepy hollow glade the conditions at the bottom of that required your attention. The six of course was down and they were only spinning the main street chair on the little gap side (vista chair too I guess) so the lines there grew quickly. But overall a great day. 3 Quote

Expand Atrocious is an understatement! Sidewinder was brutal today, not sure what the hell they did grooming it but that sucked, Quote
Deleted Posted January 25, 2020 Report Posted January 25, 2020 First day open is almost always rough for a trail. Whether it gets tilled wet or just pushed flat wet, until it’s had a few days to fully dry there are tons of lumps and cookies. 1 Quote

Johnny Law Posted January 25, 2020 Report Posted January 25, 2020 What I was told was the sixer is down becuase of a drive issue. A rep from the manufacturer was there yesterday which makes me think they don't know exactly what's wrong with it. Both those chairs are pretty old 2 3 Quote

Expand The quad is 30 years old, the sixer is 25ish. 30 years is generally the limit on detachable chairs. It's like an old car, yes proper maintenance can extend the life but eventually you'd replace so many parts it wouldn't be the same car and would cost more than a new one. I just hope they get it running fast, by 930ish all week there was a solid wait at the quad. 2 Quote

Benm Posted January 25, 2020 Report Posted January 25, 2020 Sidewinder is amazing today. Crazy what a day open and an inch of rain will do. They didn't flatten the whales out all the way so it's hilly for the length. Lots of fun. 2 Quote
