fcksummer Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 Spin off of @Cannonballer's thread about wind direction. Figured it might be helpful in the future to log when our mountains have wind holds so we have a database to reference back to. Please use the following template- Mountain: Lift(s) Impacted: Wind Speed: Wind Direction: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABV Posted March 13, 2020 Report Share Posted March 13, 2020 (edited) Cannon *7am update: We are currently experiencing a regional power outage - that combined with strong winds that are predicted to continue today will not allow us to open for today. We do plan to reopen on Saturday, March 14th, with lifts opening at 8:30am. No power due to Wind issues.........think this counts as wind hold !

They update it every day of the season. On March 2nd they said "17 out of 6108" But they basically never change the 17. Even when they report that wind has affected lift operation.
