Snowmaking starts!
Just got the word that we have a handful of guns running right now up on Tote Road! Snowmakers are working on flushing out lines and setting up equipment around the mountain, and they plan to run a number of guns for a good portion of the day. The real snowmaking push will get underway next week as weather permits.
Check back for pics later today.
Only 15 days to go!

I'm currently feeling a bit ainxious that I got my first turns of the year at Sumday Bigger. I'm desperate to get some Loaf turns in to wipe my shameful slate clean. DEEP BREATH.

its funny how people knock "SUNDAY RIVER" as that is the correct title for the resort that continually outranks sugarloaf in all areas, and then they ski its snow because it opened first then run their mouth on this. What sunday river does not have is a superquad always breaking down, incessantly long lift lines, and a crowded torn up mid mountain.
Congrats on the loaf getting their act together and starting the process to open for the season, but lets not be too quick to mouth off about the resort that opened FIRST three years in a row, besides we all know if SL shut its doors tomorrow lots of sorry "loafer die hards" would be at the river the next day talking trash about the loaf.
Lol, even the skier population cant remain true anymore!
Enjoy the winter

Ok Jay you win and your "resort" wins. Now please go away. No need to make your point this way.

Re-check your rankings this year, bud. Sugarloaf beat out Sunday River in Ski Magazine. Now, considering my pass lets me go to both places, I'll ski SR on occasion; usually it's because an unexpected opportunity to ski presented itself for 4 hours. However, about 95% of the time I'll drive the extra distance to Kingfield. If any mountain is going to be seeing more of me this year it'll be Saddleback.

Hey stefan gre...
i dont think they can really disconnect them. they just need to make it so the traffic is directed AWAY from landings and knolls. and a hip transfer or C box could do that nicely.. then it could all be jumps on one side, rails on the other, with a...
