Not much of a reason to give this Trip Report, but I'll do it anyway. Cat's Can & Coat drive was not quite what it was last year. The rain, as well as the limited terrain kept the crowds at bay. We were there from about 9:30am until 1:30pm and never had a lift line longer than one or two people. Lower Omigosh and Easy Way/Rabbit were the only trails available. If you look at Cat's webcam, it doesn't look much different today than it did on Sunday.
Have to give props to Cat though. They managed to produce and keep enough snow to remain open when most others didn't come close. I understand why they've won the Best of Western North Carolina Award three years running! Good job giving us something, even when the weather tried to stop you!
I was a little surprised Cat didn't change the date of the C&C Drive due to the weather. I'm sure the donations didn't come close to matching what they received last year.
I do not have a photo for this TR. As I sad, just look at their webcam and you'll see pretty much the same conditions we had on Sunday.
On a brighter note; the first official weather report from BP sound great!
