Went out for a tour today at Moffatt Tunnel. Had to carry our skis for about 1/2 mile before there was enough snow to put them on. At first it wasn’t so bad, but then it was just an asteroid field of rocks to dodge. We went about 1.7 miles in and it was not improving at all so we turned around. skied down part of the way w skins on to protect bases but it was no good. After 1/2 mile took off skis and put them back on our packs. Still counting it as my first day. All pics of my friend Ilise. this is a good one to show all they rocks

Went up today to pick up my kid’s pass and look for @Benmbut only found the pass. Impressive amount of snow and can confirm Paradise has snow. Valley open on opening weekend?! Under 6 passes changed as others stated before. No more tubing included, cost $25, and are not good at CB.

Dropped off my and Pops skis for a wax n edge, and snapped a couple. Mini -whales on valley school. Most of the valley snow is the base near the lift. Could see some snow up on the look out below intersection of Paradise and Stupid Name.

I purchased an indy pass this morning...not looking like I'll do a trip out west this year, so this will give me the option to hit some places in the East where I can do some shorter trips

Nothing on challenge / razors. Can't tell if they're blowing on paradise or coming soon, I'm guessing paradise.

First drive of Skison almost as stoke building as first chair. This will be 6th year in a row I start skiing in Nov. I was a slacker in 2015-16 only skiing 16 days and missing November. Have been in the 25-41 day range every subsequent year.

Atomic Jeff was at Hunter today and said it was grate

Guns are back on..the temperature dropped way faster than predicted..night #4 of snowmaking let’s go!!!!

Sounds good. I'm hoping for a good amount of natural snow at some point for blue Knob and some other mountains

The new lights on Coming Soon look cool...sorta whiteish and less orangey. Remains to be seen what it'll look like in person but I like it a lot from my 3rd favorite Bette Middler song...From a Distance.

EPIC day at Hunter w/ @GSSucks and @Justo8484. @GSSucks caught up with me somewhere on 87 and arrived at Hunter ~6:50am. Geared up started our skin right as the sun was coming up. This was my first real skin adventure, as my Jacobsburg State Park adventure with @toast21602, @mbike-ski, and @Mixilplix was more to test the gear, and practice changing the skis from uphill to downhill, etc. It was low 20s when we started with a nice breeze which helped regulate body temps. The alpenglow was spot on as we headed up hill. It's a ~1.75 mile tour with 1600ft-ish of gain (I think) and it took us about 50ish minutes with a few stops to adjust venting, take pics, etc. Pretty efficient method to travel uphill. Gear test was pretty successful I thought. We were back down at the car a little after 8 to meet up with @Justo8484, change into dryer clothing, and head back out for a day shredding the gnar. First few runs were 10/10 awesome groomers but lines started to form and stuff got more scraped off. Skied until about 1:30pm with a beer stop somewhere in the middle. Well worth the drive to ski some nice conditions, fast runs, and get a little uphill practice in. TFTI @GSSucks.

He’s a legend

I’m sure he’s writing it now.

I’m interested in a Knob.

I was not aware you could mold them yourself. I had mine done in the skate over at the hockey rink at play at, just in a lower setting than you would mold hockey skates on. Worked fairly well.

Eh I changed my mind, I'm stoked to ski but I just dont feel like spending 7 hours driving tomorrow. I can wait one more week to ski at True Blue. Have a grate time at Hunter Mountain.

Will Camelback be ranked number one or in first place?

We should do a PASR Magazine Resort rankings guide. I'm totally serious. I'll need to think on this one...

Salty you know like 9-10 years ago Buckmans used to give a gift card valued at 10% of what you spent on season pass so if spent $550 you received a $55 gift card. I think it was smart because most aren’t only gonna go in there and spend $50-60 that’s like two pairs of socks. Many prob use it towards a larger ticket item or at least goggles or something. That was grate

@saltyant this is getting good

I bet somebody would buy the $150 buckmans gift card for $100...the funniest was my friend was selling gift cards for her kids school and I wanted a wegmans gift card and it cost $100 for a $100 gift card...had me shaking my Herman lol

I think they have big World Cup races there.

Surprisingly not crowded at hunter today

I think they'll be ok. Valley has a lot of work to go though. Guy at skii shop said they're still on for Fri.

Thanks for the update for those of us who don’t have access to their webcams.

That’s amazing that they are blowing on paradise. Let’s hope this is another season where the valley is open fast. Last year it opened only a week after opening day. Some years it’s 3-4 weeks thanks for posting BenM

Thanks for the update for those of us who don’t have access to their webcams. One more night of snowmaking and they’ll be locked and loaded for Friday. They should be able to blow the next three nights.

This is exactly what PASR needed.

They need you to feel that way. Election season will be ramping up right after the new year.

The snowmaking cannons are fired up fuckers

Damn you can’t even give her a like? That’s fucked.

Correct and they’re already saying the Africa variant was attributed to Toto...not the dog from the Wizard of Oz but the band.

Gonna guess that the new variant will be blamed on mutations caused by the non-vaccinated

Good point. I might go up Sunday, I dont have to buy a lift ticket and have nothing to do this weekend lol. Too cold to bike and golf. Maybe I'll see you there and we can split a hot cocoa.

Yes, that’s the place.

Delet this.

Salomon.

I predict everyone is thinking it'll be a shitstorm so they'll all stay home, then I'll have the slopes to myself and it'll be magical.

Wouldn’t even consider it. It’ll be a shit storm.

you could sell boot juice to groupies.
