It wasn't Elk, just had the movie at Schuylkill Valley HS a few weeks ago and I think I remember it being Shawnee this year. Not 100% on that though being Shawnee....

lots of new snowmaking guns this year; replaced a lot of water lines up the hill, new loading deck on B chair.

Got my Epic NE midweek value pass; booked a week at Mt. Snow. Don't need anything else. Keeping eyes open for sale on replacing my Spruce skiboards.

Boston newspaper reported today that 2 locals have purchased them. Both long time residents at Killington and both big money guys. No changes planned and all management and staff to stay in place.

Killington now shows on the destinations for the Ikon pass on the Ikon website. Elk doesn't show there or Epic site as a resort.

Just got my Epic pass, NE midweek value pass, senior, $314. Snow, Okemo, Stowe, JF/BB, stuff in NH, the liberty, roundtop, 7 springs etc. Pretty good deal. Non senior version is only $100 more. Who wants to ski the weekends in VT anyway?! Will be booking trips to VT soon for next year.

latest rumor is it sold last week.... hope it is just that, a rumor

Nice run! Liked the human slalom gates at the end.

NICE!!! Thanks for the vids and descriptions.

Reports of 11" knee deep western style powder. Reports come from friends that are regulars in UT and CO every year. One guy commented it was as good as anything out west he has seen. last time BC saw snow like this was probably about 17 or 18 years ago. And yes, it got very crowded today- all lots filled.

What this all means is shitshow incoming! That snow in Phila and suburbs and NJ means all of the Jerrys and its Presidents weekend one time a year people are all incoming! Get your runs in early......

Over the years there have been a few up-hilling it. We were told as long as they have a lift ticket they are good to go.

11" in Fleetwood in my front yard an hour after it stopped (had to clean up first!)

Was up this morning, first chair. Conditions were sweetness on the half shell. Not a bad run on the hill. F chair side especially nice. Started to soften up around 11:30. Very light crowd. Expect next 2 days to be the same.

BC frowns upon pop ups in the parking lot for tailgating. Will get a visit from security. I do see low key tailgating going on Saturday afternoons in lot. Just be cool and haven't seen any issues. Also haven't seen any grills going....... Snow today was pretty good, fast and firm. Got in my 16 runs in 2 hours. Started getting lumpy on Kodiak and Broadway by 11. Timberline, Grizzly both very nice.
