End of the season

Well the end of the season has arrived with this weekend being the closing weekend at Sun Peaks my local mountain. I was hoping to add Whitewater to the list of scrapable ski hills but it looks like they are already closed. I managed to scrape 8 of my planned 10 this season which I am quite pleased with.

So far the current version of the Snow Scraper supports the following ski hills:

  • Sun Peaks
  • Big White
  • Whistler
  • Kicking Horse
  • Red Mountain
  • Revelstoke
  • Banff Sunshine
  • Lake Louise
Off to a good start. Over the off-season I have plans to add auto update support so that the Snow Scraper can update to the latest revision with the press of a button. That will update the software to work with any new mountains that are added and to update any existing that change their webpages. I am going to switch to an OLED display and create a new 3D model around it. I'm hoping I can come up with something much better looking and a bit smaller. It will still use the same sized snow globe and led light as well as the same input module and raspberry pi zero.
