    Wait, are you charging admission to your backyard?

    Cannon and Wildcat aren't on the same pass. Wildcat is on Peak which also gets you Attitash and Crotched though.

    You guys know how to live.

    If anyone wants to ski Platty Sunday I don't mind carpooling. Last I saw they had 12 inches and were expecting 4-7 more.

    Sick. You get 2 tickets to some resort in Japan with your E p i c P a s s Do you guys like sushi?

    If I was driving west I would skip all those places and just go to the knob, if conditions warranted.

    I always make a point to travel each season. Even if its just a few days in NY or VT, and the flexibility of basically having a season pass to whatever mountain is nearby is a great bonus. Skip the ticket lines, go right to the lifts and when you add in the cost of a ticket at Hunter or Mt Snow it quickly makes it worth the investment. My only real gripe is that Hunter is probably 3rd on my list of Catskills resorts. Haven't gotten to the NH places yet but will definitely check them out. I guess it comes down to if you plan to travel or not each season.

    Was a Roundtop pass any more expensive. A drifter pass costs the same as a season pass the Blue would for me, and I have the bonus of a free day at Hunter or Mt $now.

    PA mountains in order of gnarliness *provided they have received ample natural snowfall*: The Knob Elk Blue Mountain the True Mountain Jackson Frost Everything else

    Platty is a gem. That place is a lot of fun after they've gotten some solid snowfall.

    Montage is great because it really like two mountain on top of one another.

    You could rip up the slide when they had a lot of snow. You'd get yelled at though. It was fun. Good move turning it into a trail. Still not agreeing with the terrain park move though. Doesn't matter as I never will go to CB again probably.

    Wait, they put a terrain park on Pharaoh? Why? I liked when it was contained on its own little area with that mid mountain double. They had the cool graffiti thing going too.

    There's still the cliff under the east mountain lifts. Skiers left a short way after you come onto the liftline after exiting River Shot. It's before Mark's Way crosses under the lift. The sign for Risk It is still there too.

    Just got back from Jackson Frost. Elevator is indeed open although its almost impossible to drop into the steepest section it being a sheet of ice. Skiers' right was great though. First time I've ever really hit it, definitely need more practice (and more snow) to get down more confidently without a line pause before that little drop/cliff thing halfway down. Also Challenge glade was pretty much full top to bottom which was great.

    Blockbuster at Platty is maybe steeper. Westway is legit though. I like Hunter but don't like the crowds and its easier to put together unique runs and kinda get "lost" at Belle or Platty. Better glades too when the conditions are on.

    Best run of the day was ripping up the lift line under the Merry Widow lift.

    Easter bunny park.

    Peak can buy them.
  22. EdBacon
    Looks promising. NWS is called for about 3-6 inches of snow Thursday into Friday before it turns to a mix of sleet/freezing rain/rain. Saturday looks like the better day to open.
  23. EdBacon
    Think they can open next weekend?
  24. EdBacon
    Guns on at BB overnight. Just looks like they blew on Freedom and maybe the neighboring green.
