Tussey is a disaster zone! College students can't get their lessons in and some are hiking up the steep slopes. I say, screw you guys, I'm going home.
-
What a freakin' joke. I drove 20 minutes to Tussey, got my skis and boots ready and now the resort is closed again due to "chair lift broken". But the website says the black expert and blue square trails are open. Big let down Tussey. Very, very disappoint. 0 out of 10 stars. I'd give negative stars if possible.

Sounds grate. How were the glades? Asking for a friend @Ski2Live Live2Ski -
I really hope Tussey Mountain snow resort gets their act together by tomorrow. Right now only the green circle is open and costs $27. WTF?.

Some fancy shrimp with cocktail sauce in Milroy, PA. I think @tarponhead says always order seafood as far from the coast as possible. These shrimp were probably caught fresh from the bountiful streams flowing from Tussey Mountain.

I didn't get a day like this at Blue this year, so I'm gonna hate hate hate. But I did get sum perder at Vermont which was nice, so I ain't even mad
-
Wao that's rad. I remember just the other day when Upper Sidewinder was a wee baby trail. They grow up so fast 😢
-
All the melting snow will be really grate for the snow making retention ponds. Maybe the ponds will be full enough to get Upper Sidewinder open by February 31!

I heard it wasn't so good because it was wet heavy snow and not light fluffy champagne powder.
-
Correct. People on Facebook must be posting fake news
-
Lift closed at Tussey. Maybe they are getting chair lift consultation from Camelback? All that fresh pow pow at the top of the very high mountain top will be radical once they open. I think Tussey is your favorite name for a ski mountain as it sounds kind of like Tushy.

No preference, but I try to stay away from the cheap places like Econolodge

Maybe I'll ski Tussey tomorrow night as I'm working nearby. I think they got one or two inches of perder. Get stoked!!!
-
Maybe a snorkel too. Good thing I have Elan Ripsticks for this weekend to ski all the fresh powder stashes in the glades!!!

Correct - 6,000 feet above sea level (per diagram below) minus 1,000 feet elevation = 5,000 ft. Grate job

@GrilledSteezeSandwich one of the local hill stations made it on Reddit. Can anyone guess the mountain?
-
@DiMe I'm hella jell-o. First time at Killington? That mountain has a special place in my heart as it was my first big mountain. It's where I took my profile avatar picture. Each run there is like a magical journey through trails like Dust Bunny Buster, Launch Pad, and my favorite, Grate Eastern. Bear Cub sucks though. Fudge that stupid run.

2/8…last of mid winter snow before the February thaw.

Grate. I'll propose a trade to the leader of the race team clan. Maybe I'll throw in a couple of Captains Wafers to sweeten the deal. -

Grate idea. We should trade the race team Razors Edge for the Burma Road. They can have the whole Burma Road all season long and practice their super G turns. -

I love how their website says "36 trails open", but doesn't specify that only 34 are open to the public. Fake news!! False advertising!! -

Closed for a race, just like 365 days a year? -
2/6/24…Sunny…Challenge was excellent.

When I started skiing it was almost exclusively night skiing because it was cheape, like $20. I didn't have any season passes. Now that I've seen the light at how much better early morning skiing is on fresh courdoroy, the icy and sugary slopes of night skiing are far less appealing. -

A grate reason to ski only in the daylight times.
