We will be closed tomorrow (12-10-13) as I have to run down to Junction for the day. I'll have the doors open today and Wednesday. I'm here flying solo Mon-Wed. but the doors are open, come on in. If you don't see me I'm on the property somewhere you may have to find me. I'll try to keep an eye out for anyone coming in but there are plenty of places that make it difficult to see everyone coming and going. Full crew will be here Thurs.-Sun.

Looking forward to serving you,
Mike
 
Great pics Ray! I'll be seeing you in EARLY January. Wow, looks great!
 
All I have available would be Pizza and wings, but if you want to stop in I'll have the oven on and happy to serve you.

Mike

Thanks Mike, I might just do that.....I did check out your website today and did see your hours. no worries, I know it's early in the year.

Well so far this latest "storm" hasn't panned out to be much of anything. We've gotten a little over 2" of light powder since last night. Its still coming down lightly but I don't expect there to be much more accumulation. Good thing is there is currently little to no wind and the visibility I excellent.
 
If we head that way tonight how is the actual snow base? Good, great, poor?

Base is good, 4-5 feet on ave. South facing slope are 1/2 that in depth and very rocky. When in doubt stay in the trees, in the meadows or norht faces...rode up there yesterday it was great for mid Dec.

Been snowing lightly, should be 6" of fresh by tonite.

call the lodge for a cabin!
 
Just got back from top. Not much new snow. Still a great start but going to need more to get it really going. North facing under Leon is really good.
