Haven't gone out West all season but plan to soon. Does Beaver Creek have any plans to open Grouse? Is the continued closure because of lack of snow or COVID complications? Appreciate any insight

it was lack of snow; I’d expect it opened in the next week

Yeah if the storm this week hits like it’s suppose to I have to imagine it opens up. But I was out there a week ago and it was still closed.

It's because of lack of snow, and probably also in part because of the sketchy snowpack. Ski patrol (intentionally) triggered a number of slides on Screech Owl and a few other runs, some of which I haven't seen slide. Been skiing at the Beav my whole life and don't think I've ever seen Grouse not be open by early January, even on terrible years.
