Got to thinking a little out of the box about late season options. Everyone knows that Jordan, Oz and Aurora have the most coverage this time of year, but they are often the first to close. Would something like this be possible as an alternative to the setup of previous years at Barker?
Use South Ridge as a base for selling tickets. Run shuttles over to the base of Aurora or to the Jordan. An alternative, likely more costly, would be to upload and download on the chondola. Keep the North Peak Lodge open for food and restrooms. You could even sell tickets there if you didn't want to open South Ridge. Run the Aurora, Jordan and Oz lifts. This would allow people to access the North Peak Lodge from above and return to Aurora on Paradigm or Quantam Leap. The advantages would be better cover, higher upper mountain access and maybe more business at the Jordan Grand.
