They made an update showing guns ... at the ski bowl.

Putting the science of snowmaking aside for a minute... very curious to see what happens!

WTF?!? Does anyone think Ski Bowl is gonna open anytime in the next 10 weeks? Are they trying to open Ski Bowl before the top this year? AFAIK they're still using porta potties at Ski Bowl, so we got that that going for us.

Ski bowl will be open for Xmas week with the new lodge

Probably the Village Chair and Nordic trails.

Nope! They're blowing from the top of Lift 11, Hudson Chair, down Oak Ridge to the Peaceful Valley Half and Half intersection, and then down Half and Half to Moxham and down to Lift 11 on skiers left through the Village Slope.
ORDA is committing to the Ski Bowl, weather looks good, think positive...

Does this mean it will be isolated from the rest of the mountain with hopefully a shuttle between the two? Will Burnt Ridge be prioritized to get everything connected? Once they have North open, they can connect by opening Backwoods to Eagle's Nest, and then Hedges out. Also, please note that Burnt Ridge is Lift 11, and Hudson is Lift 12.

Yes, correct on 12
And yes, it will be isolated early season; haven't heard anything about a shutltle, yet. They are doing this to highlight the new lodge.

The worker bees are now spinning the Gondi and bumping the snow off the seats on AEII as they come around to boot.

Not much in the way of any whales from the portable fan guns yet though. They are off now.

How are they gonna run it without a connection to the main mountain? Is there enough parking at Ski Bowl to support $40 Million? Are they still using porta potties? Is that what they're gonna highlight?

They should at least clad them with some rough sawn and call them outhouses to get that authentic ADK vibe.
