Despite a warm up Sunday-Tuesday and some heavy rain at times the man made snow remained safe in large piles on Holly and Twister. With cold temps predicted for the next 5-7 days it is looking good for an opening Friday. Snowmaking has been most intense on Twister and Holly. I suspect holly and the beginner slope will open Friday and Twister will come online quickly there after. Twister wil be home to an early season rail park when it has enough coverage to pop open. With some lake effect rolling in this week we can hope for some more help from Old Man Winter (most of the natural snow from last week is charging down the creek in the form of muddy fast water today) and will expand terrain as conditions permit. More updates through the week.
