We have had guns making snow when the weather and temps allow for several days now in the Back Bowl. The now is starting to pile up back there but, like everything with snowmaking this particular winter, it's been a slower process. Normally, we would have most or possibly all of our portable guns back there by now. However, because of the record warmth so far this winter a the rain storms over Christmas, we had to leave some portable guns on the west slopes to open runs on the west/main side of the ski area and to repair the base in areas from recent weather.
After the next few days of few days and cold temps this weekend and early next week, we should have a better idea of when we can open some runs in the Back Bowl. We are also limiting snowmaking right now on the terrain off the Sunrise Triple Chair and prioritizing the Back Bowl in this current phase of snowmaking. Right now, we are concentrating on the Carter's Cliff, Great Scott, And Seven, and Allie's Alley areas.
Again, I'm biased, but our team and especially the snowmaking crew, is the best around. Stay tuned for more updates on the Back Bowl and other new terrain opening soon!
