From our house, we can see the "glow" of the lights and blowing snow when they make it. Pretty cool. Well and the caption on the picture says snowmaking could start on the slopes today.

Not me, I guessed early December. I'm thinking they are putting snow on the plunge first as it's a small space and they can make tubing money over Thanksgiving weekend. It's probably much cheaper to run the tubing area and not a big loss if we get another warm streak between now and the middle of December. So who won the “guess the first day of snowmaking” contest?

With temps this cold it seems they would be gearing up to open the core slopes as early as possible--especially since the resort is in *dire* need of skiing revenue. Massanutten and Bryce are both making snow on the slopes and plan to open soon. I would prefer for people to spend their skiing dollars in Nelson County!
