Arrowhead and Tomahawk aren't far off. As I write this, the guns are going all out on lower Tecumseh, Kittatiny, and the Bushkill Park / Pipe.

13 trails for tomorrow folks...Park features on the Country Club trail for the weekend. http://shawneemt.com/mtninfo/snowreport.html

when you guys calculate your vertical in the stats manager from Montage, what do you estimate the total vert from the top of the P. Snow quad is to the bottom? I'm guessing 500 feet but before I update it I want to make sure it's accurate.

I believe Elk faces Northeast looking into Wayne Co. I always thought one of the mountains in the nearby distacnce was Mt. Ararat in Wayne Co. I could be wrong though.

Shawnee was fabulous last night. It was sweet packed powder plus the guns were firing big time...That plus another 5 inches tomorow should make for top notch conditions. I have a feeling this winter is going to last a while.

Shawnee's making tons of snow.

I just got back. Conditions were absolutely incredible!

9am to 5pm on Friday 8am to 5pm over the weekend

lol.. That would be Count Dooku who cut off Annikan's arm - Classic

Yeah it's the Buddy Pass price.

The Blue Mountain actually seperates Northampton and Lehigh Counties from Carbon County. The ski area lies just over the Carbon Co. Line which is considered the Poconos - barely. Has anyone considered a pass to Shawnee Mt. For $249 it's affordable. As for the tower guns on Razor's, Shawnee has them on every trail and the snow quality is considerably better because of it.

ditto on the car as a locker thing. My boots go on when I park. I try not to bring a lot of stuff with me.

Uhh. 7 Springs is in SW PA.

Have you ever skied in NE PA if so where and how does it stack up against Whitetail. I'm interested in skiing there I'm just not sure it'll be worth the drive.

Nice shot Atomic. Yes I cannot imagine another PA slope being much steeper if at all steeper than WL.

Maybe the 10 inches they got will keep them open longer than the 2nd. Powder days are spectacular at E. - just remember to put on your snow tires.

and conditions are awesome with this latest dumping of snow.

Okay April 1st is next week.

sorry Atomic I didn't see your reply

They always go well into May and some years into June

Is it even possible to go straight down?

It is hella steep!! Reminded me of world cup at Stratton. But WL is probably longer and harder because of the ice

All of this White lighting talk made me want to see for myself. I must say I severely underestimated WL. I wasn't expecting that type pitch. My first run was Cannonball and when I looked up from the quad I was surprised at the steepness of the thing. The left side of WL was icy and impossible to edge ( I learned this the hard way) but I figured lightning out by my third run on it and skied it successfully every time for the rest of the night. (stay where the powder stashes and bumps are). The top part of the mountian didnt really interest me. Boomer is a nice run too. Lots of ice and hard pack. The snow wasn't the best especially on the steeps. Beginners (if there are any here) read the signs and do not try White Lightning if you aren't an advanced to expert skier / boarder!
