More ice on Friday, but this time with holiday crowds. Â I can’t remember the last time I saw Sugar so busy. Â Still, somehow the chock-full parking lot and people everywhere didn’t translate into much in the way of lift lines. Â It took longer to get a drink at the Belt Room than it did to get on the lift!
And then.. poof! Â Just like that, everybody went home and the mountain was quiet as could be Sunday. Â I pulled into the parking lot and couldn’t believe it was a weekend. Â The warmer temps mellowed out the ice and lots more terrain was suddenly fun again. Â Monday was much of the same, but even warmer, starting to get a little springtime sticky in the afternoon even.
I was a little surprised Mt. Judah was on money hold Monday and presumably weekdays through the rest of the season. Â That explains the recent terrain park relocation (so it can still be accessed from Jerome lift).
Nothing in the forecast but days of sunshine, which is nice for a little while, but we definitely need some snow out there soon. Â Juneuary is thinning things out quickly.
