EMERGENCY SNOW DANCE ON BLACK MOUNTAIN


After watching yet another snow pattern slip by us, we decided to take matters into our own hands! Black Mountains' snow goddess arrived on the scene yesterday afternoon to perform an emergency snow dance. The Snow Goddess, (AKA Carlene Sullivan, of symmetree yoga) believes that baring skin to the powerful snow god, Ular, is the key to bringing him our way, since, after all, he is a God of the Snow, and does not see skin very often. Although Carlene was the only one brave enough to bare her skin, she had many 'snow hopefuls' participate in the dance....and now, all we can do is wait.
But until then, we are very pleased with the response we are receiving from our customers this week. Of course we would all LOVE more snow but our top priority is happy customers and that is what we've had. Our snowmaking crews have a stockpile of inventory from the past 2 months and now our grooming crews are working their magic with placement, keeping the trails we have open in beautiful condition day after day. In addition, our southern exposure is keeping everything soft and easy to carve up. Customer reviews such as this one received yesterday tell the story.....
'Thank you Black for a fabulous day on the slopes. My husband, daughter and I really enjoyed it. Definitely coming back soon. Job well done with the snow on such a tough winter season. Two thumbs up. :)'
In addition to great conditions on the mountain our customers are enjoying all kinds of fun events this week, such as trivia contests, scavenger hunts, movie nights for the kids, date nights for mom and dad...and our biggest hit this week -rides in our Snow Cats!'
