Although I have not been out on the mountain this morning, I can tell you what is open and what we are planning for this upcoming weekend. We are open with 28 trails and 6 lifts today. Big Pocono is open today. Lower Cleo is open with bumps, and the Dromedary is scheduled to open tomorrow. We are making snow on the Hump, the Asp, and the Laurel Glade Half Pipe. On Saturday, the Rhodo Advanced Park will make it's long awaited debut, along with the Laurel Glade Halfpipe. Also on Saturday, we will be hosting another Demo Day as well as the Grind @ Camelback, the first leg of the Oakley Rail or Bail Series. Registration will be held in the West Cafeteria from 10:00am-11:30am and practice is from 12pm-1pm. The event begins at 1:00pm at the Sunbowl, with the finals scheduled to begin at 4:00pm. The registration fee will be $35 if you have not already pre-registered. A lift ticket (reduced price available to competitors) or season pass is required.

On Sunday, we are hosting the Mid-Atlantic Snowboard Series GS & Slalom Event on Pocono Raceway. Registration will be from 7:30am- 8:30am in the West Cafeteria. Practice and inspection will be from 9:15am - 9:45am. The first run begins at 10:00am, and the awards ceremony begins at approximately 4:00pm.

Not sure, but every other year they just used the Nastar area. Trail is full width, so there shouldn't be any issue keeping it open.
