The latest news from the side hill. So since our last report there has been a few new catski terrain projects completed.
We spent almost 20 days in the Woody area, this has been our biggest project yet this year. We started by widening the road to hopefully gain access to this zone earlier in the season. Then we started in on the Little Woody line proper, which consisted of smaller gladded tubes. Gone now are the tubes which should allow for at least 2-3 more passes by catski groups. While we were in the Woody zone we decided to attack the last remaining ungladded line in the Big Woody, SWEET!
Then we realized that the ski season was just around the corner and decided it was time to work on our conditioning and we headed for the long walk to the 3 Bears area. We only spent a week there for a little fine tuning. This zone had not been visited since the Monashee Tree expedition of (circa) 2001.
With the weather deteriorating we have now started working closer to the lodge area.
The Enchanted Forest line off of Baldy West is were we are working now. Clusters of large standing dead trees are being removed for your storm skiing pleasure. Hopefully the weather cooperates and we get a few more runs cut. All this new work will make our catskiing terrain better then ever.
Here are a few photos:
