There are a lot of people that 2500 is a drop in the bucket and might love to throw a party at their own private ski area for a day.

You get like church groups. Not powder hounds. They rented 3x last year and the year sucked. Most groups return year after year.

Maybe Harv can rent it with all the "click" money he's getting from the political discussion - call it a business expense.

Don't ski the trees, ski the spaces between the trees.

Well this makes has me thinking that it probably wouldn't be worth the extra coin unless it was a huge dump. I can be in Silverton in 5.5 hours driving from here and set up reservations while watching the radar.

You guys wouldn't believe the Silverton experience with one or two heli drops during the guided season on a Thursday after 40+ inches. It's one of the coolest ski experiences in the lower 48 imho.

I still want to get back and I will, I have family I need to visit but the Friday ski day is probably more likely.

Platty with 40" is pretty good.

James D , Me and Harv skied Platt after the big 90+ storm in 2010....NOT so good..The woods were chest deep, wild stuff..

My announcement: I am buying beers for any day ticket holders on my birthday, Sunday Jan 8.

Sunday Jan 8th, if there's snow I'll be there for B-Day party. Most likely will have a crew as well
