Merry Christmas everyone! Just wondering if Lookout was still on schedule to open tomorrow. I'm driving up from Albany early tomorrow morning.

It'll take more than 12 guns to open it by sat. I heard mid jan. Wed screwed the mt and current forecast don't look nice at all

Yeah, that's a big trail. Had it not been for this warm stretch of weather I'm sure it would have been open by now.

I heard once the weather breaks it won't take too much more and it could be open by New Year's Day or right after.

They where running the lift for awhile today. A couple of lifties where also shoveling snow to make a path up to the lift. However, we got periods of heavy rain today, so I'm skeptical about a Lookout opening tomorrow. I sure hope you’re right though.

Looking at new trail map I have concerns about crowding of beginners Boreen trail from people coming off of Wilmington trail.

Park features IMO should be moved from Brookside to Lower Valley.
