So Blackcomb is opening this coming weekend, and Baker probably next Tuesday.....ho hum.......
UPDATED TUE. NOV. 1 at 2:30 PM: OKAY. . . .HERE IS THE NEWS! WE HAVE SET AN EXPECTED OPENING DAY OF NEXT TUESDAY OR WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 8TH OR 9TH. THIS COULD BE THE EARLIEST OPENING IN OVER A DECADE.
IT IS CURRENTLY 32 DEGREES AND SNOWING UP ON THE MOUNTAIN. WE HAVE 24 INCHES AT HEATHER MEADOWS, WITH 36 AT MIDMOUNTAIN AND OVER 40 INCHES ON TOP OF PAN DOME. THE GROOMERS HAVE BEEN OUT ON THE MOUNTAIN AND THINGS ARE LOOKING GOOD, BUT WE ARE STILLLL LOOKING FOR A LITTLE BETTER COVERAGE BEFORE WE FEEL WE CAN OPEN WITH GOOD CONDITIONS.
FORECASTS ARE CALLING FOR BETWEEN 3 TO 4 FEET OF NEW SNOW BETWEEN NOW AND NEXT TUESDAY AND WE ARE HOPING THAT WITH THIS ADDITIONAL SNOWFALL WE WILL BE ABLE TO OPEN AS MANY LIFTS AS POSSIBLE ON NEXT TUESDAY OR WEDNESDAY.
NOW, WE KNOW YOU ARE ALL ANXIOUS TO GET ON THE MOUNTAIN, BUT WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE A GREAT OPENING DAY FOR YOU WITH LOTS OF SNOW!
FOR THOSE OF YOU STILL LOOKING TO GET YOUR SEASON PASS IN THE INTEREST OF BEST BEING ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF MANY OF THOSE OF YOU WHO HAD PASSES LAST YEAR AND HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE NEW DEADLINE, WE WOULD REEEEEEALLY APPRECIATE IT IF (AS OF TOMORROW NOV 2ND) YOU WOULD PURCHASE YOUR PASS ON-LINE ON OUR WEBSITE AND THEN COME TO OUR BUSINESS OFFICE IN BELLINGHAM TO GET YOUR PASS MADE.
THE BUSINESS OFFICE WILL HAVE EXTENDED HOURS THIS WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY FROM 8:00AM TO 5:30 AND THE BUSINESS OFFICE ONLY WILL ALSO BE OPEN THIS SATURDAY AND SUNDAY THE 5TH AND 6TH FROM 10:00-5:00. YOU CAN ALSO HAVE YOUR PASS MADE ON THE MOUNTAIN ONCE THE SKI AREA OPENS, BUT WE WOULDN’T WANT YOU MISSING ANY POWDER TURNS WAITING OR YOU PHOTO, SO IF YOU CAN MAKE IT TO THE OFFICE – THAT WOULD BE GOOD.
