I don't know if you've been to Heavenly in the summer, but our trails have a lot of boulders and downed trees that help stop erosion and provide habitat for wildlife. So we need a lot of snow to get the trails where we want them from a quality standpoint. As I've said before, we're all about quality and service here, and we won't open a trail that doesn't hold up to that brand promise. Tim – As soon as terrain is ready, we’ll be ready.

I'm visiting from Chicago next week and want to explore the entire mountain. Is early season lift operation and staffing driven by the calendar, or do you have enough people at the ready as soon as additional terrain is deemed skiable? I echo Mat’s question.
