  1. Visibility is much better. Riding the gondola
  2. It was a miracle I didn't get jacked up I guess. In the town known for miracles. Having lunch now. Waiting for my kid. Will end up skiing till close. snows good despite the low vis. Wilmington trail is grate.
  3. Lookout mountain is officially open. Wilmington trail time!!
  4. I honestly don't care that much tomorrow is supposed to be bluebird. The snow is really good and that's what counts. I just hope the summit and look out open soon
  5. Just skied approach to wilderness and made the most miraculous recovery in all my years of skiing. Flat light and foggy I didn't see a lip right before the pitch...came in with speed, saw the lip last minute and tried to stop but it was too late. Did a 180, and backwards wedged on that pitch (wilderness) with speed for about 300 or so feet. Finally dug in hard enough to stop but miraculously stayed up right. Literally had to pull over and just sit for like 10 minutes to absorb what just happened.
  6. There's hope. Clouds to the east over in vermont appear to be breaking. At the moment look out and the summit are closed. Sticking to little white face at the moment
  7. Little bit of Olympic history right here
  8. Visibility is rough up top. Little white face is where it's at right now. Just did approach to wilderness to the base. Visibility sucks but the snow is really good
  9. Cloudy or not. I fucking love this place. Rode essex to the base. Cord is great and my legs are screaming
  10. Riding the gondi solo. New gondolas a swanky AF. My daughter will be here after her physics test. Cloudy at the peak so it may not be the best day for pics but I'll see what I can do for my fellow PASRs. Stoked as always to be at the True beast of the east and one of my favorite places anywhere. LFG
  11. Strange weather. cloudy this morning and kinda warm - upper 30s. Temps are gonna drop it like it's hot however with a low of negative 4 overnight tonight. With the temp drop should come some snow which is supposed to start around 1pm... nothing crazy...1 to 3 inches or so. As for the skiing... looking like cloudspin is on tap today. Over on lookout mountain Wilmington and maybe sugar valley are a go but hoyts and lookout below are likely not happening. Upper empire is listed as closed but we'll see if they drop the ropes. Should be minimal in the way of crowds which could make for a pretty great day. More to come...
  12. That house is way too close to the road. It's crazy. I'm gonna leave blue one day and find a car parked in their living room
  13. You'll need to fill me in
  14. Arrived not too long ago. Took just over 4 hours to get here from greek peak. About 4.5 with a few stops. The Wendy's Asiago chicken ranch whatever on a pretzel bun is the fuckin bomb btw. Today was awesome. Greek peak is a freaking treat. I can't believe this was my first time skiing it. Worth 2 hours from the Poconos and will be back.. There's a crap ton of tree skiing and I wasn't expecting the old school vibe. It was busy but never waited more than 2 minutes for a lift. Was really impressed with some of the steeper pitches there. Stoked for the main event tomorrow however. Time to check the weather.
  15. Old school vibe here is awesome
  16. Zeus, hercules and some trees. Probably skiing until they close at 5
  17. Olympian is badass.props to my daughter for skiing it nicely
  18. Temps are comfortable. Snow is nice. Spring like... Easily edgible. Almost hero snow. Great freaking day!!
  19. Rain passed. Skiing is nice!
  20. Me and JFDan did chute 1 I think. Speaking for me only...but if I recall I don't think it was very pretty.
  21. I did. Heres how it went... Me: hi front desk lady at Cobble mountain lodge. Salty says hi. Front desk lady: salty? Oh you mean the guy who complained his room temperature being one degree warmer than he likes it. Me: yeah that's the guy. Front desk lady: sorry...we're booked up but we'll let you sleep in your car. Have fun in utah.
  22. Johnson and Johnson vaccine was approved.
  23. Damn Barb. My heart started racing reading that. I'm glad you're ok.
