Whiteface crews resumed the process on Friday night and have been making snow continuously since then.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I skied down to mid-station today (Tuesday),&#8221; said Assistant Manager Bruce McCulley. &#8220;It was fine and we&#8217;ll keep making snow to get it better by Friday.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Whiteface will open with three intermediate trails and two lifts and will ask guests to download at the end of their day.<\/p>\n<p>The Cloudsplitter gondola will bring patrons to the top of Little Whiteface where skiers and boarders can cruise down Excelsior, Summit Express and Upper Valley to mid-station. From there, the Little Whiteface double chair will return visitors to Excelsior.<\/p>\n<p>To end their day, guests will download via the gondola. Pre-season lift ticket prices will be in effect.
