One thing to maybe note here, this is going to be a fairly warm snow in the Blue/Montage/Elk region. gets a little colder in NY, but its just not gonna be a very cold snow.
-
Looks like things are shifting around some. Blue might get some snow, but im a skeptic at this point. Just based on how this year has gone, and its march, i would go on the low end of these numbers.

I cant accurately describe wtf the first headwall on Razors was. Mostly because i couldnt see it, but it was a new level of weird. After that, things were pretty good, slow in spots for sure. Switch was nice, coming soon was fun in the ditchy-ditch. Last two runs the vis was so much better. -
Going with the trends this winter.......Not PA.

interested. Following.

one overly agressive facebook meteorologist/paramedic says accumulation snow sat, and significant snow tuesday. like a nor'easter. and maybe next thurs/fri too. he is a snow lover, so sometimes his snow goggles cloud his forecast some.

i have an email with a link in it saying if i renew by the 15th i get gift cards.
-
Also renewed mine. For those that were waiting anxiously on the edge of thier seat about what i was doing for passes next year.

Waaaay to much in the way of logistics with this. At least @Benm got on the lift with 2x4's on his feet. This thing wont get near the lift. However, you may be able to get this to go at JF with skiitoolives on Sunday, since you can just throw it on the snow there and go down. Might have a hike back up tho. I would shoot for the glades, since he heard they were "skiable". -
Kicking Horse and Revelstoke, you have my attention. Plus, nice work getting all these different resorts in.
-
Nightmare is a double black. im not even sure skiitoolives kids are double black diamond skiers yet. Nice work.

i like all the posts, and like the lift. I am most thankful for the early season lot/lift options. I think parking up top might be a thing of the past now. yeah, it does turn into a cluster fuck in between the 2 sixes, i would like to think there is some good explanation as to why they are so close to one another, but we live in a very imperfect world, and maybe this is what you get when you remodel an old ski resort, basically having to put things where they need to be VS where you would like them to be. Who knows, maybe there is an ancient burial ground that the new 6 is encroaching upon. They could try to work on the getting off part of it a little bit more, but its all good.

Pretty unimpressed with the Friday/Friday night thing. I think if @RidgeRacer needs to use something on the driveway, it will be a squeegee.
-
glad to hear the blower is now running!
-
Whitetail has officially thrown the towel in on this year.
-
The bouy was bouncing around for like fri-sat too. There wasnt any action showing tomorrows, so who knows whats up with that thing anymore.
-
i felt like i was waiting for things to go sideways at any second while skiing today. The early run on Switch was really good, but again, just not knowing exactly how the transition onto Lower Main was gonna treat you kept me kind of tentative. i would rather ski goofy shit like today, than not ski at all, but my rating for today would be pretty low. i will take it though, with all the guns they had going to put down snow. take the good with the bad. way busier today than i thought it would be. lots of state police, 2 Dept of Conservation trucks, Paramedic, 2 ambulances, and 2 fire trucks. not sure what was going on there. Maybe policeman/firemans day off on the slopes?
-
how will i do shicola/raceway/widowmaker/cuzziscabin to midway then? Jlaw and DW wont be able to run switch.........The struggle is real.
-
last weeks forecast VS todays. Match up the Friday in the above photo, with "today" in the below photo. Trended a little warmer for this week, like it always does. lol. Glad we are skiing, but what a shit season for weather. Meanwhile, out west it just keeps on snowing.
-
my god is that thin.
-
Thats about it, but it was from way further back, and showed about 6-7 trails. Rough go for all of the East this year. Back to your regularly scheduled programing, Blue Mt season pass.
-
For me its the plain and simple fact i get to ski every weekend, its an easy commute from either direction, and the totally bizarre group i get to do it with. Of course i cant find it now, but i just saw a pic of Whitetail resort, and it definetly will make you appreciate Blues snowmaking. Granted, the temps are probably a tic lower than blues, but yikes. look at thier webcams. if i was them i would point them at the scrapple shack.
