Gore Mountain Conditions

Where is Centerville? What is the elevation?
Saratoga Springs is low elevation, before the long climbs to Warrensburg, so snow there is a good sign for Gore. Even rain in SS often means snow at Gore.

Centerville is in the center of the Town Of JBurg, 1310'
 
Well today was foggy but no rain this morning. Sunway to Pete's and Jamboree was really nice with the second groom, and they also opened Quicksilver and 3B today, and they were pretty good as well. Upper Sunway and Wild Air were sweet!

Podcast transcript this morning:

Despite yesterday’s rainy weather, our mountain operations crew did an amazing job keeping conditions in tip top shape so we’re able to open up Showcase to Lower Sleighride! With a fresh groom from the cats overnight, this nice long blue cruiser will make for some sweet laps. Additionally, the Sunway chair is opening today with direct access to Pete’s Paradise and Jamboree. We are now offering 11 trails across 3 lifts and over 5 miles of terrain. Looking ahead, the North Side is slated to open Saturday afternoon with the trail Tahawus while the Northwoods Gondola is getting prepped and ready for a Sunday opening.
 
Today was my first day skiing for the year. I agree with milo that it was firm and fast. I didn’t think showcase was good, but everything else skied well.

Snow report: they started blowing tahawas around 10:30. Not clear how many guns going. I could only see one. Around 12, they started on lower cloud and a bit later on fox lair.

What @TomCat said. I was the first one down Showcase/Sleighride this morning. Showcase got a little better later, but Sleighride got worse.

I was there today, and I must say that I was very impressed with the conditions with the weather hand that Mother Nature dealt. All of the trails skied well with the exception of Upper Showcase to Lower Sleighride which wasn't great, but it was a first groom for that, and I expect it to be much better tomorrow. There was no damage by the rain, imo.

Whether the Gondi and Lift 2 run tomorrow is a game time decision, but hopefully both will be running by Sunday ⛷️

Tahawus has the only automated tower guns on the North SIde (which is why it's opening before Sleeping Bear), so it's fully lit up
