Confused again by the Snow Report

[Jeff]

So, it's 3:45 Tues afternoon and they've got Wednesday's Snow Report up already. Surprisingly, they are listing the Adk Express (the high speed triple) as an open lift tomorrow. But not the High Peaks chair or North Quad. So they're running a lift that serves 100% duplicative terrain instead of one of the others that would allow additional terrain to be open. Is the Dark Side considered to be in "unskiable" condition? Could be, but yet they post on the same Snow Report that "We've got oustanding conditions thanks to fresh snow this week and loads of great grooming!" And, where one glade was previously listed open, we are now down to zero. I just can't reconcile the trail count with the "outstanding conditions." Sometimes I can't help but think that the people running the mtn are their own worst enemies. Sorry to sound like such a curmudgeon, but I just don't get it. :?

That one glade, Straightbrook, was CLOSED all weekend :x

I doubt it was open today and yesterday.

Surely LS and the DS liftline are firm and shouldn't/can't be groomed. But is it really that hard to run a groomer down Hullaballoo? That way the sadists can ski their runs over there and the folks who want to keep all of their fillings in can ski Hullaballoo and it opens up more of the mountain...

How is the weekend looking? I know its going to be warm but does the mountain have enough snow for nice (non rock) spring skiing?
