i doubt it will be anytime soon. I skied there friday and it was completely bare where the tabletops were last year (between tuff enough and centerstage). I thought they were building one up at the end of showtime but it looks like the rain killed that too.

If they make snow over the next few nights like they should be able to then they might get something the weekend or so after christmas... Right now jumps aren't high on their priority list... coverage is... so if we get more snow then maybe.

Later,
Tad

they made snow all last night until about 9:15 this morning, and should be able to make more tonight, i think.

the first jump is great if it wasn't destroyed today during the rain, that bastard rain, i hate it, but it makes it soft so you can basically fall on your head and not get hurt.

Hey, they just tore down and rebuilt the tabletop by centerstage/tuff enough. It's alor bigger than the last one, but that damn natural snow makes it hard to spot the landing.

yesterday that jump would have been perfect, the landing was powder, really soft, i fell face first and it didn't hurt at all, but the landing had 2 or 3 huge ass moguls in it, and then there were huge ass mounds where they had made snow and not groomed it, the same for the inrun...and it has no kick,

well, they groomed it today, and it was nice, but still no kick.....oh well, the little kicker in the rail park was better than the big one, which is kinda sad....
