Dick Barron's comments from the daily Priority 7 Ski Report.

We are closed Monday through Friday and may reopen next Saturday, April 12. The "spot" Terrain Park will be open regardless of the skiing schedule.

Competition can be such a good thing...

As stated before by myself and others, having a new owner who is willing to invest in Hidden Valley will only make Seven Springs that much better and benefit all of us who ski and play in the Laurel Highlands.

Well, just noticed Hidden Valley says on website that they WILL be open for skiing this Saturday and Sunday for $10. A looked at the webcams and, while not great, HV looks to have enough coverage to open Imperial, Continental and Rambler. 7Springs looks 'all washed up'.

I had heard it said that Buncher wanted to demonstrate that they could do better than 7Springs at making snow and in the end, as well as all season long, I believe they have proved that they can.

You gotta love it. Can you imagine this type of commitment behind a place like Laurel Mountain? I'm drooling....

Wagner and Stowe look washed up but Tyrol/Avalanche still have good cover. Never did I imagine a scenario like this.
