Headwaters really comes into its own once we get past the cold, dark and dry months. That cold smoke just needs a little density and body.
Edit to add: I just saw that MR Hummers is closing at the end of the season. Lease not renewed by the Corp. and to be replaced by yet another mediocre Pizza Joint.I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.

I'm coming up to Bozeman tomorrow afternoon, gonna ski a day at Big Sky, probly Thursday, and either tour or maybe go to Bridger Bowl Friday. Spent one day at Big Sky last year being shown the goods, it kicked ass, would be excited to meet up for some turns there, and if anyone would like to tour somewhere in the greater Bozeman area Friday let me know. Or get a drink any evening. Peace!

Madison Base (Headwaters Grill) and Yeti Dogs are my 2 faves for price on the mountain.
The new Moonlight Lodge is a freaking joke as is Everetts 8800! Very $$$$$$

I haven't taken a seat at Mahogany Ridge in years. Bernie seemed ready to go but Hummers was sort of an institution.
I guess this means that tearing down the Mall will have to wait.I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.

NS girl is a friend and she speaks the truth.
...sounds like maybe the chairs on the new high speed bowl lift will be staggered enough that Tram traffic won't change much.
Damn good skiing the last few days.

Posted on another forum:
Got a confirmation today that the two new lifts are under contract. Total cost over $10 mil. so I think those who think current owners are stingy must be VERY rich in comparison. Big Sky has a very efficient lift system and the two new lifts will make it even better.
Engineers have completed their lift alignment work.
Removal of the old Challenger equipment will start tomorrow.
The Challenger replacement will be a triple chair with a loading carpet. It will run 500 fpm faster than the old chair. It will be a little better in the wind because of the weight of the chairs and the cable. The dismount area at the top of lift will be reworked considerably to make it easier to get off the lift. The additional capacity is considered to be an improvement for both the Challenger and Headwaters terrain since both areas can be accessed from either lift.
The Bowl Triple will be replaced with a 90 degree loading, bubble covered, heated seat, detachable six pack. The chair will be relocated at both the top and bottom to enhance loading, unloading and traffic into and away from the lift. Enough dirt will be moved on top to allow for grooming and dismounting the lift from both the right and left sides. Improvements will be made to Upper Morningstar and the Bowl. It was noted that this style chair will be considered the standard for future chairs at Big Sky.
My personal thinking is this is clearly more capacity than is needed for skier traffic in the Bowl, Tram and Upper Morningstar but it's an indication of a future need to get more skiers up the mountain into the area of the lower Tram station.
Make your 20116-17 reservations early. It should be and EPIC season!
Snow conditions are good at Big Sky, with more snow in the forecast. If you're looking for a place to make a quick spring ski trip you should consider Big Sky.
