Susan's TAY-FB thread from 12/14 suggests that Stevens' park was open, but Alpental's was off. Is that still correct?
Thanks!

Alpental is running, but only 2 pads are operational at this time. The ice is bad. We'll be working on the site this week to get more pads going and at least break up the ice around them.
Thanks for the update, and thanks for this valuable resource!
