Sure it will be fun about half the year, but how much fun is artificial snow when it's 107?

If they can't make it comfortable then it would certainly be a failure. I understand they are installing cooling and misting systems along the slopes to bring down the ambient temperature by over 20 degrees. It doesn't make sense that they wouldn't think that part of it through very thoroughly before going forward with the project. I also don't think their investors will make the leap until they're satisfied it can be done as well. I for one am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

I think that if they're doin this of course it can't be a big mt but I hate havin to wait a whole year to make it back out to Loveland in Colorado every year I get a lil better at my jumps, grabs, and spins but it seems like I'm just gettin in the flow of things when I got a couple more days left if I had somewhere that I could keep pushin the limits year-round I would be blasting by my friends (which are locals) on the jumps (I already do but a lil salt in the wound couldn't hurt... Me at least) get the funding ull make it back off of just me in the first year oh yeah don't forget the half-pipe and some rails

Daily Horoscope for December 10

Leo

Be choosy about who you spend time with today. If you're with someone who's habitually miserable or sorry for themselves, you'll soon be dragged down to their level and will struggle to recover again. However, you may feel such sympathy for their plight that you don't see you have any choice but to be with them. If so, do your best to remain positive.
