As I recall, things at Copper didn't really get much better until after the racers left, in early to mid-December.

A bit more natural snow would help.

First day of the season at Crested Butte and I got some runs in. Skied with DIL and a friend of hers who followed me down the hill to salvage any parts if I fell apart. Only one lift running and one run open, man made snow topped off with 4"s snow o/nite. Quite pleasant skiing on an old pair of Blizzard SL skis. Will try the Blossom FIS SLs tomorrow.

Both days with mrsjmills after a shortened season two years ago then her two days last season after a shoulder surgery.
Black Friday in the afternoon was warm with nice snow but a challenge. Seeing that Sunnyside would open for the season we started early on Saturday and didn’t leave the Sunnyside chair the entire day. Grooming was a little rough and the snow was firm, the lack of lifelines made for a good day.
Confidence was gained by the end of the second day and I had a great time skiing the same green run all day with my favorite ski date.

98 days to go to hit my goal for the season. The current base is similar to what it was the end of December 2020
I’m looking forward to keeping my LSS busy with base repairs and prefer skiing rocks to crowds so the next month will be good for me
@ADKmel It seems like we had compared home ski area base totals last December with Alta at 37”, do you remember what you posted?

today Gore has 2 lower trails open w/ about 2-8" manmade!,
Whiteface has more base (more natural) but only trails w/manmade are open.
We need a NorEaster...

2 though lines and windhold have made them incomplete. We have a low early season tolerance so will get out for a hike or whatever. The ski and bike shops are happy. Still got some nice runs in and am feeling good out there.
