Sorry something wierd happened. But I know most resorts who have night skiing end it early is it just for economic reasons or what. I mean the conditions are still great.....

The school ski clubs stop coming by that time, so there are not very many people down there, so it is not profitable for them to keep the place staffed, chairs running, and lights on (this is a big one because those are a light of big bulbs suckin up a lot of juice) for not many people, especailyl when most of those people would be season pass holders anyways.

Ah thanks. I kinda assumed that but I mean it seems kind of early for that. Isn't their unoffical closing day april 16th? It seems early for some reason (compred to last year).

April 6th actually is unofficial closing day. At least it was when I checked yesterday. I agree though, I wish they could afford to keep it open a bit longer. Can't go down after school anymore. All day tomorrow though, I'm there. Feels like this season went by uber fast.

Last year Bristol said they were gonna close the first weekend of April but eventually extended it to the second week I think. They're usually not open past like the 14th ever. Theres still a ton of snow left when they close though and that makes it fun for some hiking.
