Ski resorts still tyring to get on their feet

The ski resorts of the east coast are still having trouble opening. Mother nature doesn't know if she wants to be winter or fall. Big Boulder had originally been shooting for opening day to be today, December 10, 2011 but the snow guns were not enough to satisfy the staff. Bear Creek is slacking like usual. They haven't blown any snow and the temperatures during the day wont allow for snow making. Bear Creek got some new jibs this year with adding some new bonks, down rails, and stair sets. Big Boulder always has a nice setup with the mountain being dedicated to the terrain parks for the most part. Blue Mountain has been blowing snow and is shooting for opening day to be December 16, 2011. Blue Mountain doesn't seem to change there terrain parks very much which makes Blue very boring at times. Heres a video of Freedom Park at Big Boulder, usually the only trail for opening day.
