Ski town buses are such a mixed bag, one will do 10mph from SLC up the canyon but on the way home now the dude is doing 80......also many people smell..... -
You got to own that shit, school groups can fuck themselves go right around to the front and get on. As long as you project properly ain't nobody saying shit.

I was at Bear yesterday, I'll probably be up tonight. Work has been killing me..... -
Tahoe is the fucking shit dude, Reno is like 5 seconds away....anyways peeps are going to bitch maybe but I'll just say this cause it's true. GW/Climate Change whatever the fuck you want to call it is fucking with the oscillations and the jet stream, it has been since 2008ish. PA has been colder for sure. Upper level warming wobbles the AO, cold air spills into the NE which then fucks with the jet stream. Everything is the US is based of the jet stream. At a finer level it's the RRR, Ridiculously Resilient Ridge, essentially since early 2013 a high pressure ridge of tremendous size and duration has blocked pretty much any serious precip for Cali. You need divergent air, you need chaos in the air for water to fall and this RRR has diverted that energy up to AK (hence why parts of Ak were so plump) and the Arctic. I don't know JL your kind of a fuck head anyways and medium duration high pressure blocking is nothing new..........true however in the entire recorded history (which isn't much) there has never been a high pressure ridge like this. Additionally if you run models without the extra heat you don't get an RRR where as you do with the extra heat because without the extra heat you can't get such extreme geopotential heights.

My family has used the pin method of motivation for nearly 50 years now......I use it with my five year old, it's dumb but it works......so does filling your pockets with candy though
-
Took a reunion tour of BC, they classed the joint up some more.....snow was good, crowds were light and BC still has the hottest lodge MILFS anywhere in the state.....
-
Team PASR minus AJ braved the rugged wilderness of Bear Creek to make some hot laps on their slalom setup. Wuz real gud.......big shout out to the dude for getting my ass out.....

Looking good dude... -
Winch cat has got to be drivetrain which is why they haven't moved it. Both the lift and cat gotta be waiting on parts, the market isn't that big and most of the manufacture's are in Europe. Last year when the sixer broke for about a week I remember the one racing lady said it was something insane to have the part shipped over, like 50k.
-
What they saw was even more than what they predicted, the models said 46" at one point for LI. This one fucked 99.9% of the pro mets. EURO for the longest time has been the model of choice for winter and it totally failed on this one. I don't disagree with what your saying just weather is really really fucking difficult shit.
-
It's real, I mean you can see it on water vapor or radar and it delivered to everywhere not west of NYC. Weather is like gambling, you play your odds and odds were pretty fucking good but every once in awhile it fucking goes 1 out of 100 and shits on your face.
-
It's fine they can run it but it stops every once in awhile for 10 mins or so, last year it was down for awhile too IIRC.
-
That's not true, State College got 6-8" because of were the trough lined up....... Blame away, lower totals allright but jack shit....this one stings....
-
It's been busted for weeks, safety circuit is on the fritz.....
-
Got fucked, right up the butt, Juno didn't even lube up first......JL shall now enter a period of morning.....

Racing canceled, I love racing but I'd rather just ski when it's snowing....
-
Depends on where you are. Dirty Jers, certainly, Philly is right on the line I mean literally it is the line from 6" to 14". LV/Blue is 5-9" mostly tuesday from Midnight to noonish. Caveats......ratio's could be much higher, models are going 10/1 12/1 but it's cold up high which could boost to 15-20/1. There is also the likely formation of a Norlun Trough which can really boost snowfall in a relatively small geographic area. No temp issues but the current show down is over track, GFS shows it going way way east, PA would end up with a couple of inches, NAM/EURO say otherwise, honestly all of the models are having alot of trouble with this storm but real actual observations point to higher snow totals.
-
hahaha if I had that kind of control we'd be under about 8ft come Nov 1. Shit is getting mad testy in the weather nerd world, models are all over the fucking place and noobs hug models so they are getting way bent out of shape over 6z GFS runs going way east, GFS has no fucking clue what's going on, look at the radar the mofo is here.
-
Be prepared for the bust talk tonight, peeps get mad antsy in the pantsy an yell bust at 9pm, wake up at 9am with 2 feet in NYC. Models show storm feb 2 and feb 8th, we are in the fucking pattern gents.

lol night skiing is alot like butt sex, some people just will never get used to it being different. Clear lenses make night skiing infinitely better (they make day skiing almost unbearable lol) It can be pretty firm but it can also be the best snow because it's cold. Even if it's firm at least it's fast then, blue is pretty low angle in the grand scheme of things, lazy when soft is pretty boring but when it's a fast its way way more interesting.
-
Whole mtn lit but there are always a few lights out. They run everything but the quad. Nights are a real mixed bag, either you get good snow all to yourself or you get total shit snow all to yourself. Generally isn't crowded, school groups are there en masse but they also leave by about 8. They can make it feel crowded lol but I ride alot of nights and crowds are never an issue. Friday is a whole different beast stay away from Blue on Friday night, is a mother fuckiing legit shit show. Snow this week should be pretty good, natural should keep it soft and no thaw which will really help. Wed 4 - 8 should be decent soft snow, pretty smooth, around 5 some more people show up but you'll wait at most 1min for the lifts. School groups out of the house around 8.

Ding got about 2" overnight, very light dry stuff for PA, if the winds do their thing later gonna make visibility total shit.
