Snow Reporter Comments: 2/21 2:28PM - With a fresh 10 inches to kick off the weekend and even more snow headed our way, the stoke is off the charts! Tomorrow’s shaping up to be just as stellar with all 99 ways down across 670 acres of trails and trees. The grooming team plans to pack in the powder across 68 trails, leaving 31 all natural to hunt for pow stashes. For your way up, 13 lifts are scheduled to spin at 8:30AM with no delays detected. Plus, early access will be available for First Tracks pass holders at 7:45AM. Rest those legs and legs do it all over again tomorrow! Ski ya in the morning! Gondola Update:As we noted in yesterday's Mountain Report, our Lift Maintenance team discovered an issue during routine maintenance checks and made the decision to remedy it before running the lift. The part at issue is in the top terminal and key to allowing the cabins to circulate around the terminal and return to the line to go back downhill. If it were to fully fail, the cabins would not be able to cycle through the top and we would be required to perform a rope evacuation. While we keep many parts on hand for maintenance and wear and tear, there's no ski area that is able to keep all of the extra parts on hand for every lift part, for every scenario. That is not practical, and unfortunately, this is one of those parts. We have a very tenured team of experts who perform regular and preventative maintenance on all our lifts throughout the year including the winter. As with a lot of machinery, the indications of an issue present themselves when they present themselves and that's what happened this week after showing no indication all season long.We immediately began working with the manufacturer to procure the part and as of our latest conversations this morning we do not have an estimated arrival date. The good news is that the fix should only take a day once it arrives. We want to be transparent with everyone regarding the gondola operations beyond today as it's clear that the gondola will not operate this weekend and likely into early next week. We plan to have all of our other lifts running this weekend with 100% of our terrain open which helps spread everyone out throughout the mountain. We will update the timeline as soon as we have more information.Safety Tip: Be mindful of the ski area boundary rope. Always bring a friend with you in the woods. Presidents’ Week is here at Stratton, with a full week of skiing, events, and après across the mountain. Starting Saturday, February 14, through Sunday, February 22, lifts spin daily at 8:30AM along with live music, snowshoe hikes, snowcat dinners, and activities happening throughout the week. Off the slopes, enjoy tubing, cross-country skiing, ice skating, and more, while the Village comes alive with dining, shopping, and entertainment. It’s one of the most exciting weeks of the season, and a perfect time to be at Stratton. Hope to see you here!Reliable cars are the name of the game; that is why we trust Oliver Subaru and Ford.
