Tips for slow snow? Salt? More slope? Water content?

[letsskibrandon]

Local rope tow has had super slow snow lately... is there anything we can do to make it faster besides waxing skis? Would salting it help?

Is the snow brown? Only help at that point is to pick out all the dirt or have people ski it more to get it off the surface

Otherwise use salt. We use solar crystal water softener, $9 a bag right now

Did you wax your skis with warm weather ski wax? Sometimes its the wrong wax

Yes, salt if temps are above freezing.
