Final TR, Thurs: Skied til about 2:30PM, Summit quad opened around 12, wind died down and clouds were moving in. Slides were closed, and I did about 6 runs down Paron's, Skyward and Cloudspin to the Summit quad. Bottom half of the mountain was really wet, lotsa little streams and major puddling by the lifts. They had the lifties carving channels to drain the water. Conditions softened up, and the mashies were great. I headed to the bottom, cracked open a Joker Mad Energy drink ($1 at dollar store ) and a Pilsner Urquell that I buried in the snowbank. Cleared out my locker (free ) and packed up the car. Dad and I decided to head back yesterday cuz they were calling for rain Friday and Sat. We cleared out our plush motel room , and got back to Philly around 1AM. Here are a few random shots I took.

Thurs: up here for 1st chair @ 8:30. 36 degrees, clouds and strong NWerly wind shooting down the gap. Summit lift cosed for now. Sun is breaking thru. Corn, sugar n dried out groomed mashies. skiing the l'il whitefacelift. Excelsior, Approach to mountain run and Wilderness bumps. top is pretty frozen, lower slopes corned n sugared up nice. serious hangover and the Meistro was a no show so far, lol. Bottom of mountain and lower flats really beat up. Maybe 1 weekend left for the season. L8r..

well, it kept getting better.... we cleaned up after cocktails at the cottage, went back for dinner. bratwurst n saurkraut special, 7.95, and Spaten biers. Some guy with an accordian and guitar was jammin german tunes and yodeling. After dinner we sat at the bar and I chatted up some cougar. Turns out she was buddies with the musician, turns out his name is Eddie and is director of Whiteface ski school. Now were talkin in german, doin mega shots of Apfelkorn and I'm doin some runs with him tomorrow. He drives a Porsche Carrera, licence plate "Meistro", LOL! Too funny, fun guy. Stoked for 1st trax in the AM. Gail the Cougar took my email address, lol. Placid rox.....

Bloody Marys at the Cottage lakeside, firepit is cranking on the deck, safety meeting with coeds under the deck. Coming back L8r for bratwurst n saurkraut special. Whiteface will be weekends only after this week till end of month. glades in 10th Mountain division were great, shade has maintained cover pretty well. finished up with a top to bottom run down Paron's, the botom of mountain was getting major puddles and runoff, a few trails had little streams running on them. clothing was optional. Sweated my tits off. called it quits by 2.

mad mashies today. Bump runs on uper cloudspin, blazer bluff and mountain run for hi speed carving. gonna play in the 10th Mountain division after lunch. same weather n skies as tuesday. Pics when I get back. no computer. The 4 seasons is missing 3 seasons, lol. pic of "coffeemaker" in room is hilarious. L8r........

treo tr for tues. Mashies from head to toe. 60 degrees bluebird skies. Upper half of mountain was better. some skidmarks and ice bruises on lower half of mountain. skied slide 2 after lunch. 1 had too much melt on the falls. 3 and 4 were closed. great bumps from upper cloudspin that I'll checkity check wed. L8r

Here's a few ideas, some cheesy fake palm trees off to the side for glade skiing. Night skiing flooding the place with blacklights and wearing glow in the dark gear. With a spinning mirror ball?

It'll be fun to pull into midtown Manhattan in mid August with skis on the rack....... and 20$ does sound cheap, maybe that's a teaser rate to see how big the draw will be.

After watching that video it looks a lot cooler than I thought. All I need now is a lift that takes me from the bottom of my road back to the house.

Nice looking snow conditions, thanks for more pics

I think you'd get as much out of inline skates as you would with those and do you really want to wear ski boots in August when its 90 degrees and humid?

THe only Pole that interests me is tucked in my shorts. Otherwise, I heard it takes 3 of them to screw in a lightbulb. Sorry, couldn't resist. And I never skied Sno yet, but I'll check it out next season.......... If it's half as good as Ski says, I may never ski another mountain.........

It's spotty, there's a small front moving in from the lakes with moisture for Monday, some clearing mid week and a front from the pacifioc NW moving thru by week's end. Coulda been stoked if the temps were lower, but weather is subject to change and I've been Johnny on the spot for good ski weather this season.

Just called the mountain 3" + and still snowing on upper half of mountain.

It's great to surf around and find all kinds of pics and blogs detailing some obscure places around the world that people ski/board. I even found a piece about development ideas for N. Korea, Hyundai has some involvement with that.

Best case scenario is early rain, then clearing by noon, check radar in the morning.

Bring rain gear, mother nature is being a relentless bitch to the bitter end.

Slides 2,3,4 opened 3/27. read a few reviews on SKIadk MB. Weather forecast for next week looks wet, I'm glad I went the low budget route.
