It's unfortunate. Lots of progress was made but then last summer the vendor who was hired was flaky, over committed to other projects and then when they finally got to the part of stringing the cable they screwed up. It's been a bear getting them to come back. They are supposed to be on schedule in October to fix their screw ups. Fingers crossed.
The new owners have done lots to improve things since they took over 4 years ago. Geoff, Kerry and Bill are amazing. Many improvements in the last 3 years. My favorite is the tbar, an outdoor setup at the base of show-off. You ski there and can have a drink or a snack and then ski right down to the red chair to head back up to confine the fun.
Brownie, our groomer is fantastic. He knows when and when not to groom. After a dumping he'll only groom down upper/lower magic carpet from the summit to the base and he leaves the rest untouched.
Nothing like a powder day at Magic.
