It certainly would not come as a surprise in a season where we just can’t win with weather.
Previous indications all mentioned May, Memorial Day or even beyond…but with warm temperatures, rain events and a quickly melting snowpack at the base… Get those Alpine Meadows turns while you can!
They could certainly extend the season by farming at least half of the Firing Line terrain park and transporting the snow down to the runouts near Summit and Roundhouse as the season winds down….
Pretty sure that is the plan after the TRAINS event….
Unless I’m missing something, When you click the link on the Alpine web site it takes you to the April calender, but doesn’t give you the hours of operation for the last two weekends. Are the chairs running until 4:00pm, or will they stop at 2:00pm? Ideally if they are going to cut the hours short in the afternoon, they should start the chairs at 8:00am
Normal spring operating hours have been 8:00-2:00…but we shall see. As warm as it has been, an earlier opening would be good.
