    President's Day @ Mt Bachelor

    Well played. I only got one back there, but it was nice. Amazing how different the scene was at the bottom of NWX in the soup compared to the dry talc up top.

    PNW gets some

    The what "counts" discusson is a good one. At Mt. B I start counting based on when people start demanding regular snow report updates, which I have decided is reasonably Oct 1. This year we had 8" in early Oct that people came up and skied on. Most of it melted, but not all of it up high. I...

    The main reason a ski to trail from Sunrise Base is not on the prelim draft is that in actuality, it would be a hike to trail. If folks want a hike to trail as a back up option, that seems reasonable. There is some down, but there is also a about a par 4 of up in there.

None of this is new. I've seen both sides as a skier and as management. It's not a foregone conclusion that...

    Oh trust me, if anyone slogs through the ills of "prior seasons" in their daily and nightly life, it's me. Thankfully not much slogging going on in regards to last season/coming season (all I can really control). Pass sales are up too - so we did something right. Years to go tho..

    Great shots. Needless to say I was sad that I had to be in Corvallis today instead of office/cone. See ya at the meeting. Should be interesting. Season length - you are right there is a modest disagreement between those who run the mountain and a core group of skiers who ski/live it. We are...
