Ober's website say's that they have everything open except for Alpine Way and Grizzly and are making snow on the Griz right now. It should be open in a few days. Wooooooooooooooo.

When was the last time they had Alpine Way open?? If they get that open it should alleviate some of the congestion at the bottom of the hill during the holiday open.

I want to say last season but it may have been the one before that. They had everything open and you're right, I lapped Alpine for over an hour on a busy weekend and usually skiied straight to the chair.

Last time Alpine Way was open was two seasons ago. It was also the last time Grizzly was open. I can't wait for next weekend. Looks like Grizzly laps are in my future! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Oh boy can she eat. Tonight it was fried pickles at a little place called Dessie's up in Mentone. They have really good catfish but she is going after the fried pickles and no I am not eating those with her!

11" of new natural snow. Griz is now open. If it can hold for a week, I'm gonna get me some.
