yes.... I guess... The new ones are "no oil painting" either... Hey Ho, I'm on thin ice intellectually, moaning about the appearance of ski infrastructure - I ski, and so indirectly I'm the cause of the very issue I'm whining about 
The effect, to my eye, is more brutal and offensive above the tree line where there is literally nowhere to hide, and as the natural beauty (majesty?) of the mountains becomes even more appraent the higher you go, the jarring effect of the man-made gubbins is all the greater.
They seem to deal with the issues better in the Ecrins resort as I recall....

I just realised how close the season is away.
When is it likely that temperatures will allow the snow that lands to stay and build the base up?

Christopher, Depends. If the temperatures hit the deck soon then the base could start to build then again if nothing really good happens end of Nov start of Dec. Everywhere will be different. Looks like Banff has a base building already and Loveland has had 10 inches.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

You know it makes sense.

Both GFS and ECWMF show very impressive forecasts for next week! If they're true there will be heavy snowfall in the mountains, it will even snow across large parts of France and Germany with temperatures 10 degrees below average. Let's pray...

I heard tonight that temperatures have been low enough for Norquay to be pumping out the man made stuff at an alarming rate and they would actually like to open next week! I don't see it happening but certainly if they have made that much then they could well open the slopes before the end of the month just to nick a few points off Sunshine. If they do, then I may have to actually put my hand in my pocket and pay for a day on the slopes rather than waiting for my Sunshine pass
