Tuesday- 3 new on the ground- 15f at the base and close to zip at the summit...winds were about 20 to 25, slowing the G often... regardless of how they spun it on the site, it was still essentially 2 ways down- off the g upper picked and upper b claw down to lower picked and or lower bear claw...lbc had guns going strong so that was kind of the least desirable route.. speaking of guns, as I would guess was the case everywhere, they had it fired up at what I would assume was 100% max... they were spinning the new quad and we hit it just for laughs ... it serviced sunset... it was so cold though, it was not worth not riding the G for what was really the same thing.. so I?ll call the no bull report 2 and 1/2 trails... they were also spinning the west basin q :? which accessed lower picked :? :? ?????? snow was all very edgable flat fake pp with the high traffic areas of g junction and the headwalls of the lower part of upper picked and the lower part of lower picked sheer ice.... 2 mini parks on line.. top of lower picked set up with 5 jibs... flat box to down flat to 4 kink down kink to flat rail to another down flat... top of lower bear claw had 2 easy on easy off mini booters of little consequence.... new hampton terror alert was a ?low? as they didn't show up 
wed: much of the same except about 5 degrees colder with a little less wind...guns still blazin on west side , blue ox.. lower w boss , low bear claw and upper flume?new Hampton terror alert rating was a ?moderate? as they showed, but were banished to sl gates off sunset so they rode the new Q all day and were not really a factor except at the end of the day :wink: ?
analysis: loon appears to have invested heavily in these monster cannon style snow guns that look like they have barrels about 15 inches wide and looked like they are moved around by trailer hitch? we counted about 6 of em in use?loon is close to major terrain expansion? I would guess lower boss , blue ox should be online by tomorrow?.the new Q is great for sure? we stayed away wed , but on tues , they were spinning it at a rate which seemed to rival wildcat?s speed?.we?ll see if that lasts?.it?s definitely a sub 5 minute spin?..we have kept our eye on the top of the super pipe for the last 2 weeks as it looked like a new small green lift tower pole was in place?. We were hoping reason was about to prevail and maybe a small poma or rope tow was going to be dedicated to the park :shock: ?.no dice :evil: ?it?s going to be a new observation / judging area at the top of the pipe :roll: ? back on Monday and Tuesday ( hopefully for some pow )
