Did go up today and was glad we made the effort. Best bits - great weather,
snow overall pretty good, getting a bit scraped on the steeper sections,
remains soft on the tops. Thank goodness (I could use a stronger word)
for the Falcon tow and runs. Worst bits - Eagle 1 going off early doors and remaining shut, Snowy Owl Chair started late then on and off all afternoon with
more technical problems, Grouse also off of 2 pylons on the steep section.
Hire queue was also very long. Problems with the chair and the absence of
the Grouse meant long waits for people trying to access the mid-mountain and
tended to funnel people down to the Falcon but queues ther only got bad now and again. We'll done to the lifie there who was on all day and kept things moving.
Not sure why they are having so many technical problems - maintenance, investment, staffing levels? It definitely is affecting the customer experience which is a shame.
