Happy 50th birthday Purgatory weekend! Good friends, sunny day, backside opened, low crowds, great views and SKA's new 50 year commemorative Pilsner. This place will spoil you, especially during the week.
Rumor has it that more than 2 1/2 times past amount of water was used for snowmaking. I definitely have mixed feelings on this. It has been several years since daily skiing has been available early season. Hats off to the new owner and hope his actions succeed. The new Legends high speed chair 8 grand opening is Dec 19th. Hopefully, there'll be more natural snow by then.
Best quotes from the weekend:
From a friend: "Corduroy is my favorite fabric."
On Ski Barn's marquee: "El Nino 2016. It's too big to fail!."
