Update: December 1st at 12 PM: The snowmaking crew went out and made a great effort last night. The guns were up and running for about 1.5 to 2 hours. The humidity and temps proved to be a little too high for converting water into snow, so they had to shut them down. As of right now, we have enough snow to open and are still hopeful that we’ll have some lifts spinning this Saturday and Sunday from 10 am to 4:30 pm. However, we have about 36 hours of warm temps with drizzle in the forecast. Had we been able to make snow last night, a decision would have been made today. However, we want to see how the snow holds up and how we look on the other side of the warm-up. As a result, we are going to delay our decision until 5 pm tomorrow (Dec 2nd). If we are a go for this weekend, the plan is to have the North Peak Quad & Shelter Double Chair open, servicing about 4 to 7 runs: Smiling Irishman, Lower Canyon, Shelter & Ski Shop should be open and possibly Upper Canyon, Easy Street & No. One to RW. Conditions will be early season, with thin coverage, and far from perfect. The crew is working hard to do whatever it takes to get open, and either way, we are off to a great start with our snowmaking and well ahead of last year. On a much more positive note, the forecast looks very favorable for the weekend and into next week. The coverage and conditions will improve quickly prior to reopening the following weekend. .
