I just spoke to the peak office and they said that there are no hazards or equipment in the way of our launch area. The road to the peak has not been cut yet so be prepared for some slogging.
I have not met yet with the guest services people so they will likely be disorganized if you require a new pass, however your old pass will likely work just fine. I hope to be meeting with the guest services and other Grouse people next week to review our procedures and ensure that everything goes as smoothly as possible. If you do go up please post a note on the forum or a pirep to let us know how it went.
