  1. I already took advantage of it .
  2. I just checked my myspace account and this is from Camelback's bulletin: Passholders from other ski areas will be allowed to ski or snowboard at Camelback Mountain Resort for FREE for the rest of the season. All you have to do is go the Guest Services and show them your pass. - Camelback - Now I'm wondering if the left hand doesn't know what the right is doing . It doesn't say when it starts, though.
  3. never thought of it that way.
  4. I called today and they said that they are not sure if they are doing this again. Somebody might have gotten some old info?

    Conditions?

    I went to Elk today and conditions were pretty good. It looked like they blew more snow on various trails.
  6. Blow more snow at JF and stay open longer than CB, this year .
  7. Yea, that's cliff huck. They didn't blow snow on it the last couple years. I liked hitting that on the way back to the lift. I miss it...it was something different.
  8. I called today and they said that they don't know yet if they are doing the free skiing again.
  9. I called today and they said they are hoping to stay open until April 4th.
  10. Have you been there on a weekend, this year?
  11. It will probably never "officially" open, kind of like Mark's way. If there's snow on it, you gotta go on it.
  12. I slept in today, since I have the day off of work...actually the week off. Got there at 11:20 and it was still snowing, along with being a balmy 12 degrees. It worked out good, because the old frozen stuff was covered over, although the wind was blowing the snow around a lot. I did probably 90% of my runs between challenge and thunderbolt. The wind didn't blow much around, on those two. The left sides were the best. I only did two runs on east mountain, because I wasn't too impressed with it. If you looked around and picked your course, the snow was really nice. If it weren't for the wind, it would have been probably the best powder day of the year. On the way home, I saw an orange juice truck that had been involved in an accident and they were cleaning it up. The radio said they were having problems with this, because a lot of orange juice spilled out and froze on the road.
  13. Have you? JF gets crowded, but the layout of the place allows them to easily handle crowds. The amount of lifts that they have helps keep the crowds spread out. Therefore, everybody isn't trying to funnel into one or two lifts.
  14. It's FREE . I did it a bunch of times last year and never waited in line. Maybe only a couple minutes longer than buying a ticket.
  15. It seems like at least one of the two. The first one this year was pretty nice. Either way, I avoid them. The traffic line gets to the point were it goes from the lodge, out close to the red light.
  16. They both copied off of JFBB. JFBB has been offering the free skiing for the last few years.
  17. I figured that there was a reason that they were calling for a chance of rain on Friday .
  18. Go down the main trail that runs under the lift (rivershot). It is to the right of the last headwall. You can still see the cut off signs posts, from when it was labeled.
  19. How much snow that is on it won't be a problem. There is still a decent amount of snow in the trees. The issue might be ice, off trail.
  20. Go first thing in the morning. If you wait until night, things start to freeze up and it will be scraped. The place also gets more crowded, being a Friday night.
  21. You hit the Elevator off of the last headwall of Rivershot. If you look to the right, just before the last headwall, you can still see the stubs from the old sign posts. As mentioned above, the area to the right of Floyds is Risk It. I actually miss Little Cliff Huck. I liked hitting that, on the way back to the lift. I think that this is the second year that they didn't blow snow onto it.
  22. Temps this Monday night and Tuesday night look ideal. Light them up again. Exhibition and Tbolt could use a little help in certain spots.
