Any rails left up there?  I'm thinking about going up tomorrow.  I brought pretty much all the rails up last year, and they got trashed by other people.  So I'm not doing that again.  But if there's rails up there I'll use them gently.

okay so i might be going up this saturday. But i need some quick answers from anyone whos been up lately

first and foremost: Is there enough snow up there

second: Do you think a volvo station wagon-ish type car could handle the road

and third: where is the road required to get there

and fourth: are there any rails up there right now?

1) Plenty of snow for weeks

2) Would not be easy on the car, but people force all kinds of stuff up that road and will tell you it's fine.  I will be honest, it's rough.

3) Peak 9 Access road starts at Beaver Run

4) Probably 5 or 6 nice rails and some other stuff.

im in texas til next tuesday so i have no way of checking, but the overnight lows in the forecast are starting to get well into the snowmaking range (first snow tuesday morning in vail???) and while i dont think theyre actually going to start blowing for at least another week or so, i bet you anything theyre going to be starting to move hoses and blowers around, so they might close the road for that pretty damn soon

but i honestly wouldnt really even bother with it, real snow is going to be coming down pretty soon, start getting your yard jibs sorted out...
