Snake–Pioneer Night Sweep

× This website contains unofficial information to help us do a better job. Refer to the Patrol Manual or your supervisor for official information.

×Sweeps are not rigid rules. Expect and accept improvization.

Snake closes at 20:30. Someone should announce, "Snake sweeps are out the door."

Rotate the signs above Doyle's and Hardcoin so they don't say "Closed".

Move the closed sign at the top of Lower Pioneer to the side.

Move the closed sign at the entrance to Pickem Up (near the bottom of Hardcoin Right) to the side.

Ski the Great Divide to the top of Ziggy's (look down into Ziggy's).

Ski Pine Martin, cut below Punk Rock, and look down lower Ziggy's.

Continue down Pine Martin to just below the next lift tower, and cut through the woods to the Lower Pioneer runout.

Ski the Lower Pioneer runout to Snake Base, making sure you look up lower Pine Martin.

Move any slow signs to the side.

Wait until the Pioneer and Sunshine sweepers are down (and probably a Sunshine sign puller).

If there is a Super, someone should call, "Snake Top, Snake sweeps are clear to the base of Snake. Come on down." Otherwise call, "Crest Top, Snake sweeps are down and clear."

Don't pull the Bathroom Cut closure signs (they need to stay up until Crest closes). The Snake Super or T-Road sweeper will get them.

Ski to Crest base, ride to the top, and do a Crest night sweep.
