Will check it out. Thanks for the dining tip. There's a place called pizzicletta that was packed last year and we couldn't get in. Definitely want to get there if I can this year. I think we ended up at fratellis which was awesome.

Posted up at EWR. Plan is to drive to Flag tonight, ski tomorrow, Thurs and Fri, drive to Phoenix to drop off my kid and meet with friends for dinner Fri night. Snowbowl has gotten about 60 inches over the last few weeks. Looking like sun and over the next few days however. Should be fun.

Holiday technically. Gondola is probably on wind hold. But yeah holy shit. It's supposed to snow through tomorrow. Edit...rime ice

Was debating on whether or not to go today. But I'm glad I did. Conditions were good, snow was soft, nothing too terrible but there were the usual divots and unevenness to be aware of; but what made it extra spicy however where the crowds and fog which started out about half way up when we got there to almost entirely covered by the time we finished. Btw In the house were JfDan, Mute, BenM, Mixilplix, indiggio, mbike, enjorales, pops and if I missed anyone else I'm sorry! Overall a good ski day and no rain (at least not while we were there) Happy new year all!

Nice today. Lots of PASRs in the house and lots of new terrain to ski on. Snow was good but the trails were sorta off kilter with some divots here and there. First run on razors was nice. Other ROTD was Midway to lower main. Upper main was open but good depending on where you skied on it. Chute was also opened and decent. Free fall was also "multi leveled" so to speak (not sure how else to describe it) causing me to lose an edge and a ski at high speed. ..should've known better I guess than to go full throttle first run without seeing it first. Overall it was a really nice day with.good snow, comfortable temps and great company.

As much as I love a good night sesh, I'm kinda feeling that this season so far.

The cold coupled with the media hype I'm sure hasn't helped them so far this holiday. This is going to be a great week wether wise upcoming however so hoping they sell lots of $115 tickets to make up for it. Skiing is no longer a walk up, purchase ticket, go skiing kinda thing. You can but it'll cost you $$. The folks complaining need to understand that. -

I thought today was pretty good with the exception of maybe p dizz and certan areas on lazy that were slick. Lazy, right before and through the turn though was $$...like silk. Midway to lower street was fun for getting some speed and falls was ok. The narrowness has me worried that newbs coming out to ski over the holiday week will end up in the ditch either side... especially when the crowds pick up. But the "experts only" sign was posted which will no doubt deter them 😐. Curzis cabin wasn't open btw. Either way... good morning with a good crew as always. Back to reality for me until Friday which is fixing to be a good one. Perhaps a night sesh or two this week until then! -
Who said they weren't?

-3 when I left the house. 3 when I arrived at the lower lot. In the house were Atomicskier, NMSki, JohnnyLaw, Matt Edge, Schif, Skincy, Nastar Glen and many others. It was cold but nothing completely unbearable. Crowds were light but best of all conditions were really really nice. First run on free fall was most excellent with some nice cord to start off the day. Midway to lower main and p diz were also on point. Falls was open but closed for the race team (smh). Too cold to take the phone out for pics except for one from the car. Overall a really nice morning despite the cold. Happy holidays!
