Looks like they got a nice amount of snow down so far compared to yesterday. If they can keep blowing all night and most of the day tomorrow they should have some really good coverage.

I was up there for a bit . Its a line of a few boxes and rails. Kind of fun. Hiked for a bit and took a few runs then it got pretty crowded. Lot more people then I thought there would be. Guy I talked to said they are going to try and blow all night tonight and all day and night tomorrow. Should be pretty nice coverage by Thrusday.

BC obviously decided it was not significant enough to continue the program. Oh well, like others have said I won't miss them bombing the park.

Nope, up in Killington again this weekend. About to hit up the Pickle Barrel.

^ Stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Nah its always January for this part of PA. Anything before X-mas is a gift...anything before Thanksgiving is a miracle.

BC isn't big enough to only open with 1 or 2 trails. They have done it in the past and it was horrible and dangerous. The weather for them just hasn't coperated and it will probably be another week or so before they can open. Oh well, plenty of other places are open already or opening this weekend.

Warm and rain on Thursday will probably put the opening off till at least the weekend if not next week.

Looks like they laid down a nice amount of snow. Perhaps late week opening?

Water temp was probably too high.

I've been in them. You aren't going to accidentally ski or tumble into them. You have to hike into them. Once inside, sure you could fall...but at that point you know the risks.

Probably the same one. But like I said you can't just tumble in. You have to hike into them and climb around like these dumb kids were doing. Its not like you are just walking along and all of a sudden you slip into a 100ft hole or anything.

The rescue was in 2010. Stupid kids exploring a mineshaft, probably drunk at like 2am. Whatever, its not like you could ride into the mine shaft(s) or anything or acidentally fall in. You have to hike into them.

Had no intentions of getting a board this year but a friend needed a board so I gave him my Burton Hero and I just picked up this years Super Hero.

Hopefully the IOC and FIS don't screw it up to much.

Jackson and Utah.

Had a nice backyard jib session on Sat. Nothing worth taking pics for or anything. Had about 4in or so on the ground in WC.

Just ordered 2 this morning.

Think the website is down again. Just tried to log in to order and I'm getting a login failed.

Why? Is there snow in the forecast? They say the deadline is Oct 31st every year...and every year you can buy the pass for almost the entire season.

Seeing prices on the new site, but they are just the regular prices again with no group discount.

Prices are up, but there doesn't appear to be any group discount applied so I would hold off on buying right now.

I'm up at BC most Thursday afternoon and nights and almost always spend some time in the bar. I'll definitely hook you up with some beer for putting this together again.

Just saw the new patio on the web cam. Looks damn nice.

Got an e-mail saying passes for 2011-2012 are on sale. Anyone setting up the group thing for this season?
