I Hope Loon always has at least one good bump run going
I'm hoping that Loon always has at least one bump run going and that the far side of Lower Flume is left ungroomed for the rest of the season. I would also like the bumps to extend to the top of Lower Flume at the Haul Back cross over. Now that I think of it I would like the bumps to continue to the top of Upper Flume. -Just a small portion of the side of the trail left untouched by the groomers. Big Dipper and Triple Trouble just don't seem to have the right conditions to support a good bump run. Flume is the way to go.

Thanks for the feedback. Our plan is to leave the bumps "as is" for the rest of the season. We are also planning on leaving skiers left of Upper Flume ungroomed for the rest of the season. Today was the first of many excellent spring skiing days in our immediate future! We plan to remain open through 4:00 p.m. on Sunday, April 19. A reminder that 09/10 New England Passes are now on sale. Don't forget the sunscreen!!! -Stacy Lopes

I agree with you, I skied three times at Loon this year and they only had bumps (small) one of those days. I love bumps, and it effects my desire to ski at Loon.
I add the trees are closed a lot, in the three days I was there not one tree trail was open. I hear from others they are rarely open and you should just ski them any how, that Loon is over cautious on their tree trails.
What do people that Ski at Loon more then I do think?

Comments: The Luck of the Irish was with us again today with another gorgeous day. Groomers have been leaving a number of trails untouched each night, much to the delight of those of you searching out traditional New Hampshire Spring skiing/riding conditions. Moguls are still in place on Upper and Lower Flume and Lower Speakeasy. Early day skiing/riding on Upper and Lower Walking Boss was pretty popular today and then a number of folks I ran into followed the sun over to South Peak for mid-day action. There are no bad choices! If you haven't started building your entry into the Cardboard Box Race, you better get started; it's scheduled for this coming Sunday. If you're not participating, at least come watch the event. It is tons of fun either way. Have a good one! -Bud
