re: Pamps Snow Cannons

Was over in pamps at the beginning of August and half way up the wall on the left hand side there was some major building going on!

The build can only be described as a bloody big concrete cylinder that looked as though it was there to hold water!! Not 100% sure as all the guys working there spoke no english at all! Looked like it could be some kind of holding / pumping station or something though.

Here's hoping!!!!!

There are a few pipes laid out on the ground in view from the mid station webcam. Wonder if they are water pipes ?

I was wondering/hoping that the pipes are to feed the cannon!

The lake has been filled with water this summer, and I have been told that the 'dispute' has been resolved - will have to wait until the winter to see if this is true !!! Very Happy

I thought i was at the lake 2 weeks ago and it was as dry as a dead dingo's donger when i was there .Maybe i was at the wrong one tho.
