Stoke meter at an all time high over here.

I took my dog out this morning and could hear the guns roaring up at Blue. Feeling pretty confident that we will be skiing and drinking in the upper lot next weekend!

Burma on opening day is pretty badass.

Just got an email. December 3rd.

I won’t believe it until the local who posts from alpinezone says so Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

How about Colonel Angus?

Snow Sunday/Monday potential

Let’s go brandon

Listen Joseph aka Jose aka top gun aka @saltyant What is confusing.

Sorry...the whole boilo thing. I hate that name. BTW see y'all Friday. Have one day left to schedule at work...and what better day to schedule than opening day!

Capstone final presentation Saturday

Last year they opened 12/11 so this is bonus!!!

Fuck yeah! Get the boilo going @Benm! Gotta get my gear out and ready to shred the white wave of Vista.

Knock, knock... Who's there? Connie! Connie who? Connie Lingus

BRB. Letting my manager know I’m working from home next Thursday or Friday.

Weekday opening means playing hooky from work.....

Yeah but you local?! Oh wait, never mind Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Inversion, yo! Blowing on tubing but not Main or Vista cams. Hope they’re blowing on Homestretch too

Camelback is a dump.

Cameback sucks. They always miss out on the first cold spell.

A classic!

I can’t wait till Bethlehem ford guy sees us all opening day...he’s gonna say,”don’t any of you people have jobs” lol

WJW. TMI.

black friday sales up - https://www.skibluemt.com/upcoming-events/black-fridaycyber-monday/ everything is useless unless you want to buy gift cards ahead to save 10% on next year's pass

yeah be confident. i still have tabs open with the ticketing calendars. between yesterday and today, full day tix went from no tix until the tenth to a boatload after the 3rd. bunch also added for AM tix the 3rd and 4th

I always thought it was made with shine.

Ski2Live have fun at belleayre.

I remember the pickle juice game

Oh, damn! Get that celebration Boilo ready!

Honestly lapping deer run sounds pretty damn good right about now.

Goddamn it I'm immature. I cannot say or even read "aer lingus" without a shit eating grin.

I replied GSS want to know the source lol

My Sonic goes radical in the snow. I've thought about buying an SUV but I need to squeeze every single penny out of my car first. It only has 120k miles on it. I always try my besy to emulate @Ski2Live Live2Ski when making financial decisions including when to split a hot cocoa and ask for a gift card

Report on Alpine Zone that Blue is trying to open Friday. No source referenced. What do you folks think?

@poconoceancity knows a guy who could lift that sonic up on bigger tires so you can get to the perder easier.

Thanks for helping those people. They owe you a beer or two, or at least a Yoohoo.

That’s a decent start. Hopefully they have upper Main Street for opening day next Friday.

MAIN ST CAM IS BACK look kinda light tho woooo

To put Elk's snowmaking in some geographic perspective: North and East: Bellayre says snowmaking has begun, Plattekill no mention of snowmaking - they rely more on natural snow than other resorts, Wyndham webcams show snow making has started, and making nice progress. Hunter webcams show a nice start in progress, could easily open by the weekend. Northwest: Greek Peak: Webcams show snowmaking has begun. South: Montage shows snow making has started. East: Holiday Mt, NY (Not to to be confused with Holiday Valley NY) - no news on their website. Mt. Peter, NY - Webcam offline, says "closed for the season. We are grateful to our staff, ... and we can’t wait to see you all next season" They didn't get the memo it is next season! - These two NY resorts (hills) are more weekend/family focused and so will not be early starters in making snow. Summary: Montage to the south of Elk seems to have one or two days head start in making snow. Competing mountains to the North are about four or five days ahead. It's fascinating to watch how the start of a winter ski season moves north to south like it is right now. Could not do this 15 years ago because not every report had webcams.

That reminds me of the travesty that was NMDW last year. I have nothing against parks...just not on that trail. Hoping that doesn't happen again this year.

I could never drink it.... the name reminds of a boil which are those nasty things that grow on people.

The best way to get snow to happen is to make sure you are completely unprepared for it.

exciting that a new trail will be opened up at Blue, with possibly one of the lamest fucking names for a trail ever. Plunge/freefall? like there is some crazy steep on this trail? no. Ray of sunshine? its never sunny at Blue. Those names all suck. They should go back to the drawing board with them. That trail should have this marker - Blue square with this symbol in it, for whats gonna happen at the intersection of Paradise.

Plunger !!! That way we can call the backcountry line the toilet bowl

Keep it coming soon
