So the gang decided to go to da WOLF sunday morning to use our 24.99 liftopia tix. Left big "A" (Auburn, Ga.) around 6:30. Started seeing snow on HWY. 25 going to Asheville. Started snowing pretty good in Asheville. SNOWING real good about 5 miles from the exit and roads were not scraped. Got to the resort and proceeded to get stuck in the parking lot!A guy in an old 4 wheel chevy truck comes by and hooks a chain and helps us get up to lot and as we thank him I ask if he knows about the new owners or Mr. english the old owner. He was Mr. Englishs's nephew. He said yes that a new group was taking over currently. He offers to give us a lift up the hill to the lodge and as we arrive, Mr. English and the new owner (who I recognized from previous pics on here) pulled up and the new guy got out. I asked him if he was the new owner and he said yes and was glad to see us. I wished him luck and told him that his place had so much potential but really needed a new direction. He agreed and said look for many improvements in the near future.
Now for the skiing-- It was unreal. You could pretty much go where you wanted and many,many people were. Officially 10 trails were open but I personally skiied 13 or 14 of them. Light crowds, snowing like crazy the whole day.I hope the few pics I took will come out but my luck has not been good on here. No video as the battery died as we were going up the lift first time.
