Long Season

I would like to get up there on Saturday just because I haven't skied Belleayre in spring conditions this year, as I have in the past. Spring conditions came in December, the week after Christmas. It has been an upside-down season!

Also, we know ski resorts compete for the greater number of trails, number of lifts, uphill people per hour, vertical drop numbers, the earliest and latest dates of operation. It is all about marketing and they are not above "creative" ways of inflating those statistics. Staying open an extra weekend, maybe beyond Hunter and Windham, and simultaneously salvaging the bad press of the season's slow-start, would be a feather in Belleayre's cap.
