Best 2nd day maybe ever, to make some semi legit turns in formation on good snow wasn't even in my list of possibilities. There's nothing like the moment, that 1000th of a second where the ski really starts to accelerate and your brain screams go slower or we'll die and you know to ignore it and push faster. With lazy I think this is officially their best non mother nature assisted start.

Vibes were 11/10, its so good to see everyone and get back in the rythm where skiing is part of my day. I thought the snow was better than expected but only because I expected the worst and there were sections where it felt like real skiing. If they get midway/main open tomorrow that may really help thin the herds. Even on pdis anywhere where it turns was like cattle chute where the cows are only vaguely going in the right direction. For blue it was a good opening day, I even had my standard pass failure.

I'll be there tomorrow but this weekend my presence has been requested to decorate cookies so not sure what's up yet. -
Nuking super wet huge flakes in the ding, it coated the grass in seconds

Jf is three turns at medium speed and back on the lift for 2332 minutes. Lift speed to vert rise should be a stat................ Blow the ever loving fuck out of blue, the cold is around but less favorable next week and last year they had like 10 days. I haven't had my fix yet so maximize blowing this week and get shit open and deep. I'm still working on believing what I'm seeing, Blue opening with more than Vista and lower main is le tits

Just have them all working would be nice, I can't recall who all was there but one night moons ago switch was missing a bunch in a row and it was dark af. If they are going all leds go color change so the whole hill is disco elysium

First day out I feel like it doesn't matter, the legs are only 80% best anyways.

When I was in France I saw 4 Stussy shirts, idk but that and MLB hats where crazy popular
-
Good call and yes for sure, though I was friends with alot of different types.
-
I still say the whole projected day was all fantasy anyways. JFDAN's forecast is awesome and if they have the usual and something open for the 6th that is a major win in my mind.

Most excellent time, serious props to Mr and Mrs wolf...............GSS is mad agile, did you have a chain wallet and Jencos back in the day ?

How will the drought effect the 2025 ski season??
Johnny Law replied to paxonpro's topic in General Chat
IIRC you have to be able to argue your water system is completely separate from the water system of the local regulatory body in order to not comply. It makes sense as otherwise you'd just have everyone digging holes all over the place. -
Yo yo yo might snow in the high Poconos Friday morning pretty good. Nothing amazing but a good improvement over 80 degrees.

Johnny Law replied to paxonpro's topic in General Chat
Restless skiers and snowboarders will meet at brown, barren ski resorts to duel it out over who gets to ride the gun testing patch. Roving bands of banditos will ravage western resorts, rustling snow all the way back to PA in a modern twist on boot legging. They will be fine, no matter the drought they will get an exemption. -
It's depressing so I haven't really looked but CPC has the whole EC 30% above temps through april

For the most part its not a concern. Erosion is a big one for ski areas and can change the sediment balance, they rely on a good nucleus tooso they often have higher mineral content and it doesn't melt the same way out of the sky does due to the higher water content. But it's less than 1% of any states water usage and is 80 to 95% returned to the system eventually. The NSSA talks about water recharge and stuff here https://www.nsaa.org/snowmaking

Neversink has burned twice in my years, both times reading peep shit but it's wild to look up and entire mtn side is burning. That said I think our fighting to fire ratio is much better than true wilderness fires and its impressive how fast it all comes back.

Can you tell me how many x'ings that is ?
-
Same and I'm sure my pass won't work I was told it was started by peeps at overlook rocks on the AT. 4 miles from skiing and on the south side.

I feel like their website is perpetually out of date

Sick and I love you can see how light on their feet they are with the tide so low
-
There are so many actual good ones but the Barrymore era is my favorite and last of the ski bums/Ron Funk is by far the best

There was an update on reddit where some dudes went down to see if he was alive and he was a ok. I truly believe in the too dumb to kill

I'll be there, sat or Sunday..... can I bring anything ?

When I checked pricing was $17 but then dropped to 11$ during the week. That's old school cheap and I spent more on lunch
