Of the 500, many of the people will be on the magic carpets or poma, or just playing in snow. I'd venture a guess that less than 20% of the people who give Big SNOW a try this winter will have any idea of how to load a fixed-grip chairlift. Much less make turns at the top, which has a pitch similar to a blue trail in the mid-Atlantic. When my daughter and her friends were under 7, they would want to spend as much time just playing in the snow as skiing. And she knew how to load a chairlift after ski school at age 4.I’m bad with spacial awareness.. how crowded do we think 500 will make it? Still sounds like lines could get darn long with such a quick ski down doesn’t it..?
Pretty cool pic of using a crane to lift the snowcat in order to get it into the building. I bet the slope manager is having some fun working indoors with no worries about weather or having to stay up nights. My guess is that he's doing a lot of the snowcat work himself.Updates on snow production from Big Snow's FB page (https://www.facebook.com/bigsnowad/):
It's nice to see Lindsey looking happy on skis.
Will be interesting to see what kind of deals are offered as the ski season winds down in March. May depend on whether target date for the opening of the retail stores holds.I'm excited to check it out. Not sure if we'll get out there anytime this winter, or more likely wait til the off-season to give it a go.
Maybe. But if flying for indoor skiing, I think I'd rather go visit Europe.I'd rather go to Dubai.
