Conditions 2/08/09

Post by T360 »

.


SAVED BY THE "Skin of our Teeth!"


An expression that means we just got away without excessive damage.

"Things could be worse."

Considering all the rain and warm temps that the regional weather
has had, we have gotten away with missing the bulk of those harmful
conditions.

The open run count is at 73 this morning due to the closure of Soleil,
the Edge and the South Side Park.

Luckily, our temperatures this morning are below freezing, so now
it will be up to the Mountain crews to make the best out of our
snow surfaces.

This is a good sign. There is still snow in the trees at the top. If we had either excessive rain or warm temps, the trees would be bare.

Surprisingly, this will not effect the skiing or boarding too much
because there is nothing wrong with a "Granular" surface.

Daytime Packing to make the best of things 2.08.09 jpg.jpg (117.61 KiB) Viewed 2945 times



A Swift reaction by the Mountain Grooming Crews will make
the best of things as quickly as they can.

It is unusual to see daytime packing, but when you get strange
weather, you have to react and Tremblant staff are working
rapidly to give us the best surface possible.


--------------------------------------------------------------



By looking at the following closeup, taken just out front of the Ski Patrol
HQ at the Summit, you can see by the Skidoo tracks that the surface is
quite good for edging.

The Mountain Grooming Crews will be doing their best to have these
types of surfaces on all the open trails.

On top of all that, you can see by the shadows that it is sunny as well !
