I'm all for getting the mountain open, but things look pretty skinny around Main. And one or two days of crowds could really shave it down further.

Is snow making only taking place on Broadway? Stump perhaps?

Brahm or someone on the web team, why aren't there any updates to the snowmaking section in My Mammoth?


Temps/humidity have not been ideal to blow snow for the past 5-6 days/nights. Looking at the web cams, one does not see any new manmade snow.

I assume MMSA does not have staff hired on yet to update the snowmaking or daily reports.

It will be interesting to hear Snowman's report if he gets up there to see the conditions today.

I doubt your going to see big crowds for a few wrod runs.

Good News is snow making should be back on in a couple nights per the weather guy. You can find more good news in the El Nino thread in the weather section...
