So it’s really happening huh…..

I’ll for sure miss the quietness of that zone but trying to be optimistic.

Even on a busy day you could ski Felsen and be the only one around. Not anymore.

I'm still hopeful that the masses will take one run, get cliffed out or over their head and go back to Chair 2. [emoji1696]

Some will get a taste of it and get addicted like the rest of us. Banking that it won't be the gapers and douches.

Well lower International can’t possibly get more bumped up so I guess that’s good. Gapers out the Elevator gate will be a sight to see.

Im more worried about the unprepared, who will fall down a hole in lower Felsen. Or the numerous people who will get cliffed/chuted out in upper felsen and create a backup for everyone else above them.

I wouldnt mind more enforcement of the BC pass to go out the gates (with a healthy dose of common sense from the gate keeper).

Just past the Snake Dance Gate

Same. We don't have many of those biggies left so it's a bummer to see them come down.

Cruised up to Silver Peak yesterday. One tough snow patch down low (before Twin Lakes TH) kept us from driving up past the hairpin. Would guess it’s passable today. Had continuous snow from Catherine TH. Ridge is pretty melted out thoAttachment 459589

Thanks for the report! It was fatter than that at solstice last year. Did you get a look over the ridge toward Annette?

You bet!

We had intended to ski down to the lake, but the melt out on the ridge dissuaded us from taking a shot at it.

So i gotta ask. The workers commute to the jobsite involves taking Ch2 up and then skiing down upper international... Facebook just post a pic of one of the workers pouring concrete from a bucket while wearing jeans and ski boots.

Was "must be able to rip double diamonds, and not be afraid of sharks" part of the job descriptions for these guys? Or has there been some carnage on the morning commute?

I bet corporate safety has no idea he’s accessing his work area via skis…

All the people I know who do heavy work on snow wear plastic boots designed for mountaineering or ski touring. Most of them are getting around by sled or cat.

Bookface says the crew has been riding Ch2 up to the site every day, and posted some pics. of the crew riding the chair with skis. Maybe its just 1 of the options to get to/from the jobsite? I cant imagine tandeming a sled up to Knoll 1 could be very safe?
