Belleayre Conditions

[Jersey Skier]

I was at Belle yesterday. Firm and fast were conditions of the day.

I’ll be there at least Sunday and Monday. Not sure on Saturday yet, I might skip it it looks bad which at this point it does. Hopefully the warm temps on Monday make it fun. Todays warmth is already eating the snowpack and it hasn’t rained much yet.

Word is snowmaking is likely either done or almost done. They don’t want to spend the money and the words “well we already have the pass holder money” were apparently spoken at a meeting. There are also many leaks in the system and they probably don’t want to fire some sections up and deal with the leaks. Like the maintenance lot leak that they’ve known about since last season and didn’t fix over the summer. It causes the lot to turn into a thick sheet of ice anytime they charge the pipes in that area.

Woah bandit you've got the intel. I know the lot you are talking about : )

Sad to hear the quote if true from the meeting.

Might've left that part out when they updated their UMP for the parking lot plans.
Oops.

They did make snow on multiple trails and along with yesterday’s fresh snow today was pretty good.

Tomorrow looks beautiful.

Today was great. They did make a lot of snow. Bump skiing was quite good.

I'll be there tomorrow as well.

Monday was beautiful. The bumps softened and made for a really nice afternoon. I got a suntan too!

Looks like Gore is the play again for us this coming weekend with the storm. Going to head up Thursday evening.

Yeah Monday was awesome! I was totally spent when I got home great bump skiing.

Agreed. Once again impressed with how well run that place is, even (especially?) after losing both my kids...

Haven't been there early this year, but considering tomorrow. What time have they been opening lifts lately?
