First run down Chin Clip. Lots of Perder. Totally rad

Wao I'm on the gondola already. They opened it early and it was like a 3 minute wait. Sickbird!

Tuesday was my longest session a full 4 hours, 26 runs. Great snow. I went skiing with my younger brother for the first time in a decade. He had a great time and want to do another morning at Blue as soon as possible.

Salty I'm Stowe-ked for you sorry...couldn't resist. terrible Dad joke I know

Trippy, were at foot of pow already......

Surprisingly good day considering. One survival run down Freefall . Went down Barneys and stayed there the rest of the afternoon. It was comical watching the 6 pack top shack lifties come out the door and walking like penguins then slide down. I took one run down Freefall when I spotted the guns running. Should be sweet tomorrow although no bumps Stay out da trench for a little while a couple lurking rocks.

I changed my mind. Haven't moved in 30 minutes lol. I'll find a room in Burlington. Thanks for your concern. In 2018 you wrote fingers crossed when i said i might get buried in the Perder at Stowe, wow you've come around

Get a room. Drive home tomorrow. Treat yo self. You earned it

Thanks, I've never actually hit any resorts in NH or VT so I'm excited. It'll be a little skifari ending with the PASR montage day on Tuesday

This thread is good for stoke on this rainy PA day 🙌

Do you give group rates? Is there also a session on writing trip reports on PASR?

Good: No falls..some say well that means you weren’t pushing it to the max...well the yellow jackets there don’t think that and sometimes you have to survive like my ugly Hobacks run but I still skied it in control the old me would have cut off larger chunks like an out of control wet noodle but I’m trying to ski well. Firstish gondola every day..8:56ish start most days. What a way to start..whisked in comfort 2700+ vertical in about 10 minutes..plenty of time for a business call, tighten boots, make sure every pocket is zipped and talk to people who know famous people or might be famous themselves. Even the occasional wallet rides the first gondola with us sometimes if he she or they missed EarlyUps and they’re always entertaining. First run down ampitheater..nobody on it..behind the surgeons ahead of the chiropractors still doctor shit..front row a mile down and a quarter mile wide you wanna make a 90m radius turn onto the Thunder lift. Nobody for ten chairs behind...every ski day..powder or cord..when it’s clear it’s fast and it’s good and when it’s low vis it’s rough but only had that a little bit. NMSki: He skis fast..always positive..always down for another beer and punctual..his fourth trip to JH..and a lot of PASRs have skied JH multiple times because it’s a place that you want to come back to. Always unfinished business. Rental Car Atomic Jeff rented a Chevy Tahoe. He’s a good Chauffeur..rental car always on fleek...no Hyundai Santa Fe..I’m sure people thought we were sickbro rippers with Utah plates or traveling missionaries who happened to be black and double black diamond skiers. More to come...a lot of good with this trip but plenty of bad and ugly to come...Stayed Tuned. and since you like pictures here’s a picture of free after skiing hotel stuff..fruit and tea..

Thats a long drive home. Things are definitely getting sketchy out this way with roads and ice so be careful if you actually do come home tonight. It is legit slick out there. The 3rd worst kind of slick.

I'm doing the B-Dubb in in Lake Placid in March. 1 something a night (can't remember)...split one way.

Props to bear for still doing 10pm closings (I’m assuming just weekends)

Late, but FYI

Surprisingly no. The lift lines haven't been bad at all. In fact I skied so much perder and moguls and glades and more Perder that my legs are completely Toast and I dont think I can go on anymore today. But dang Daniel, it was a fantastic day of skiing at Stowe!

should be nice. you gonna join?

Staying at Best Western in Waterbury. I am pretty much a regular there for Stowe trips. Paying $180/nt (split two ways) with hot tub and free breakfast 30 min from mt and 30 min from Burlington to go out at nt. (Edit - I just saw Salty made same call - nice!)

Cancelled my Sat flight to Vail (where it has only snowed a few inches in last 2 weeks and there is none in forecast) and driving to Stowe instead. Unfortunately the friend I am travelling with insists on our driving up Sat instead of tonight, pointing out roads will suck tonight and it will be super crowded and super cold Saturday. Bad decision IMO - and could have forced issue as taking my SUV - but dont want to start trip with him mad. Should be lots of awesome snow still to be had skiing Sun through Wed, with it unlikely to get above freezing the whole time.

Good thing I have a Sonic. Perfect vehicle for navigating the perder

Tuesday and Wednesday definitely awesome and off the charts. Tuesday a little crowded, but they opened the 6 pack at noon, and helped dissipate the lines. Apparently it was Chinese New Year, and a lot of schools were off🤷🏻‍♀️ WTF, we never got that off. Wednesday was super foggy at first, but it cleared by noon, snow was soft, and we even did TCS 3 times, snow and bumps were perfect, and I’m not a very good bump skier. We’ve had a good run of cold, consistent temperatures, hoping this rain clears out and we go back to single digits

2/3. Frigid morning. Snow conditions were pretty good all things considered. Just keep moving to stay warm Hike up to ride Shot 9. Nice wind buffed pow at top. Too bad you can’t hike up from Casper lift. I wish I had a little video but got to see the Jackson Juggler in action for first time.

Correct, found a Fairfield Inn near Williston after about a two hour drive.

Went from heavy rain, to sleet, to snow, to sunset all within a few short hours. Now it’s 24° and everything is frozen.

Keep us updated!!! I guess you won’t be back at Blue until Sunday. Ski you then.

I think Goat is for experts like JohnnyLaw. I've been hitting up Upper Smugglers on the Spruce side and it's empty over here. Perder on the lower part of the run is deeeeep. I'll head over to the Mansfield side soon, hopefully the crowds start to spread out and I'll find some radical glades

Did you ski Goat? Underneath the lookout double is rad. I’m gonna check the Stowe webcams and see if I can see you. I’m keeping my pants on.

Looking at the forecast, I decided to take monday off...plan is to hit magic tomorrow. Either magic or somewhere else Sunday and then Cannon in NH Monday. Toast or whoever else, you're welcome to join me, although for a day trip, Greek Peak should be awesome this weekend

Hell yeah ! Looks awesome dude.

You'll still have an epic time and get there before the majority of the people that will be skiing today!

Awesome. have fun! Should be good weekend!

Have a grate time! It is going to be an absolutely fuster cluck tomorrow and probably today. I'm annoyed there are lots of people in my hotel breakfast area which was empty all week.

I hope my love interest is played by Melissa Joan Heart or Sarah Michelle Gellar

I think we all could benefit from an hour of instruction from the Pastel Prince himself.

This is turning into a 1990s ski movie.

A good lawyer or hooker is at least double and neither of them can help you with gaper gap

PASRs from all over rhe world will descend on Montage Mountain in Pennsylvania. Good times will be had by all who attend.

I'll be there, should be super special snow

Don’t do that outside the liquor store or every other person is gonna try to bum a smoke.

Skiing's pretty easy to learn yourself. Just watch a few YouTube videos, go to Spring Mountain since it's cheap, and find the easiest possible slope in the beginner area and traverse the slope like pictured below until you don't fall anymore. This way you're not going straight down the slope, you're cutting across which is far easier to learn. When you're comfortable, do the same thing on a slightly more difficult slope. Pretty soon you'll be skiing as fast as @GrilledSteezeSandwich

Try somewhere besides Camelback (or Blue, Jack Frost, or Big Boulder). You don't need a "big" mountain for a beginner. Camelback is a Sh!tshow on a Saturday.

Rain at the base, perder at the summit. Blissful solitude on a virtually untracked Rimrock. Doesnt get much better than this.

Thanks I slacked pretty hard on the report but did my best to make sure it was better than a Salty report

Why are you confused? I see no pics of stowe, mt mansfield, snow, skiing, ski trails etc etc. This is a ski forum not a state capitol forum. If you're gonna post a ski trip tr do it right. Now Insert confused reaction here ------------------‐-------------------------------->

Got there around six, crowd thinned out quick snow is grate, 4&6 both running smooth, one of the best nights so far

You're skiing the East.

Still my favorite mountain on the east coast
