Anything before March is bonus

From what i have seen from pics of Vermont yesterday, Blue survived pretty well, we are lucky the have the snowmaking system they do. It looks like winter returns on Thursday with good snowmaking temps overnight. Look past Sunday and we see some really nice temps. Hope that holds. Watching the Beltsville Bouy for something on Saturday.

Day 3 Late start but arrived at Pico 10:30 ish. Was not planning on skiing but sun came out. Never been but this place has potential. Reminds me of a smaller smuggs. Only lower mountain open as upper lift was not spinning. Winds still blowing but calling bs on wind hold. Upper trails had enough coverage to connect the dots. Sun soon disappeared then the rains came. Then the snow came. Then the sleet came. It even started doing something that looked like baby squids. This state got some weird weather... snow was mixed. Frozen moon craters on some trails to fluffier surface with occasional frozen rivers that you traversed at speed. Blue skies by 3. Skied until 3:30 and called it a day. Would recommend going back when more terrain is open.

Day 4 Arrived at snowdon lift at ~9:30 (pro tip, park in corner next to lift. Easy access to lift and car for lunch). Guns blasting all over mountain. 25F and receding winds. Ice baby ice. Wow! Swept mountain from snowdon to bear and back. Bear ok. Outer limits and wildfire closed so no bumps. Some guns blowing wet so almost went over the handle bars a few times. By end of day mousetrap-down was skiing grate because guns blowing good product. Got word two bumper friends joining me Wednesday. [emoji41] oh yeah, I’m talking to my skis now so I got that going for me... Couple of hero to zero pics

enjoyed my new I/O's yesterday. one thing i have to get used to is the increased air flow, which i assume is for anti fogging. i was a little concerned the lens is not flush with the frame, but reading reviews both these seem normal @Shadows have you noticed this?

Correct. Sanibel Island.

No powder at Hunter?!?!??

QFT! They're likely to already have a jig that would work and their turnaround time is great.

NOAA forecast is saying snow likely after 1am Saturday and an 80% chance of snow and sleet during the day. This is grate!!!

This weather is awful.

So over this warm weather. Someone asked me today if I was enjoying the beautiful weather. I wanted to rip her face off.... I know that’s not very nice, just can’t help it.

For Jeff Not nice enough to sit outside, was cold and windy all day. Good snow conditions, about 3” overnight. Ended up getting new boots at lunch so I missed about an hour of the day but the feel sooooooo much better. Supposed to be another 3-6 tonight into tomorrow. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Was in the keys last week. Got to the Miami airport Saturday night ready to change in to long pants and shorts for the flight home. Took a look at the forecast back in Philly and decided to just stay in a tee shirt, shorts and sandals lol. Mid January [emoji2957]

Cool have fun! Never been there, but do enjoy Fort Meyers and Marco Island south of there.

Pretty cool sunset tonight with the wavy clouds.

I’d suggest just going to Buckmans or calling Blue to see if they can.

Weather channel is calling for 5-8 inches Saturday. Accuweather isn't really saying much. Wonder if we'll actually get a decent snow storm

Day 2: We decided to start at bear because snow was best there yesterday. 8:sumptin start time as our legs feeling it and crew was banged up from yesterday. 45F ish and snow was soft and flat. Bumps where still set so had to wait to soften. Woods were no longer in play. Took a break at 10:30 (hot chocolate) and we were all decidedly still nicked up from yesterday so decided on low-hanging fruit goal of skiing over to rams head and back. While on lift line at rams head heard someone call us out. Was the 6 Canadian girls staying at same hostel. They asked to ski with us and we like ‘ok’. We headed back to bear and first run apparent they were bunch of ringers arcing turns etc. Collectively they skied Japan, Norway (combined sail surf trip) and heli skied BC back country. . We were ripping back, having fun riffing off of each other’s lines and basically skied as a fun unit. Outer limits was stupid hero snow by afternoon yet superstar was still ice ((slide 30’ at Mach silly until you saw some snow and turned). Anyway, skied until 3 when we felt first rain drops. Girls wanted live music so hung at bear lodge for apres and song. Finished night at hostel chatting bs-ing around the family table. I told them it was like skiing with their Dad’s but no one was buying them dinner (they got a good laugh at that). I’ll miss their stupid accents. Girls and my crew going home today. Rain is here and I’m pretty sure I’m not dropping K$ for today. May hit local library, do some work and try to make a dent in my pile of unread New Yorkers. Awesome 2 days skiing. Winter returns tonight so see what miracles Killy ops can do (?)

I’d be more likely to drive right through NJ into Pa or NY to ski.

Nothing really to add. Snow was great everywhere. I felt old considering the high numbers of hight school kids. Put in an hour between 4 and 5. First evening skiing in a long time.

Mother Nature doesn’t have a calendar.

Wow I’ve never seen @saltyant with his face mask off like that.

It’s ok remember to pour out a little yoo hoo for MLK
