<\/figure>\n\n\n\nTerrain Park Prep in Full Swing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
This week, our millwrights have been busy welding a brand-new feature, while the crew has been completing rail prep like buffing and painting park features over in L-Park. We\u2019re working towards running a lift-access terrain park from opening day right through to closing day. The preparation work is setting the stage for an impressive park experience all season long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Watching for Snowmaking Windows<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ve been keeping a close eye on the forecast, patiently waiting for temperatures to dip low enough for snowmaking. As soon as those snowmaking windows open up, we\u2019re ready to jump into action with quick decision-making. If there\u2019s a chance to start the guns, we won\u2019t miss it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Seasonal Snowmakers Onboarding Soon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019re excited to welcome back our seasonal snowmakers, who will begin over the next week or so. The way we onboard our snowmaking team is tied directly to snowmaking opportunities, with strategic scheduling to cover key snowmaking windows. Initially, we\u2019ll be scheduling 7-day-a-week coverage with 4-10 hour shifts, gradually transitioning to 24-hour coverage once temperatures consistently drop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Two webcams in the Orchard and Valley are returning to livestream! These cameras not only offer real-time views of the trails for our skiers and riders but also help our operations team monitor the snow guns on the mountain when we start making snow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As we get closer to Opening Day, our team is fully prepared for any opportunities that come our way.
