Not enough snow for OY or OM to be worth it. The snowcat is just right for that amount.

Why does the windy point section need to to be cleared by the cat? I'm not too familiar with C&TSRR opening days but is it coming soon? Or do the track crews want to prevent wash outs, erosion, etc..?

Looks like the area got a good amount of snow this year. I'm not sure but I think Durango was low to average this year.
