Rough Start, Great Finish

Yesterday was perfect. Today started a little wobbly. Just before 8 this morning, our Lift Maintenance Supervisor, BJ, called and told me Black Mountain Express would not open due to a mechanical problem. Well, that certainly put a kink in things. Luckily BJ and crew got after the issue, made a significant repair and the lift opened at 11:54. Thank you to everyone that patiently stuck with us. I apologize for the inconvenience.

The good news of the day was that it more or less snowed all day. I didn't get on the hill until about 1:30. After a quick tour of the Front Side and Zuma Bowl I closed the day with a power hour riding Pali Lift. The heaviest snow fell then and each run was better than the last. A great follow up to a rough morning.
