tons of progress this week!
Here is the new snowmaking pump on the right and one of our two older pumps on the left. This one new pump pumps more water than the two older pumps combined. That means more snow faster to get open, expand terrain and get the superpipe open earlier than ever before!
Here's the new snowmaking pump as it went in yesterday.
All of the towers for the new Castle Peak Quad were lifted into position today!

superpipe fans guns.....
The new automatic fans were set at the top of the superpipe yesterday. Now that these are permanent we won't have to wait for natural snow like would before to enable us to drive the guns in place with a snowcat. No matter when and where we are making snow we will always have resources to crank these suckers because of the new pump that is going in on Monday. This one ultra high capacity pump has more output than our two existing pumps combined! Don't be surprised if you are driving by Boreal in mid to late October and you see a pile of white growing above the superpipe!
These guns and the rest of the system will be run from a computer on my desk...this is getting too easy!!!!!These pictures are courtesy of SMI and give representaion of what the program will look like when installed and running.

concrete on snow progress update
Today we started final assembly of the form work on the hill. We should be finished Monday and ready to pour concrete!
Looking up Rail Alley at ...???(we don't actually have a name for this yet!)
Side view into the soon to be pyramid
Filling the interior form with dirt.
About half way done with remesh/rebar work.
It will not be long now! Just a little more rebar/remesh work and then the exterior form for the pyramid can go into place and then we can pour the concrete.

Concrete on Snow
That's right! Dave and Eric are out on the hill prepping for Boreal's newest feature. A 5' tall, 16' long, concrete skate-style feature.
There are going to be so many options, it is going to be ridiculous.

Summer Project Update
Work continues at the top unload area of the new Castle Peak Quad
Final grading isn't too far off.
Looking down at where the top terminal will be set and 4 of the 16 new fan guns that will provide coverage for the new lift.
Hummmmm....could these fans be for the superpipe?
In total there will be 25 new fully automatic fans to provide coverage in the mountain core of the Accelerator and Castle Peak Quads including the Beginner areas, Prospector and Race Arena trails as well as the Superpipe, Night Park, Accelerator jump line(??say what??) and Kidz X park.
