Posted by GrilledSteezeSandwich,

Get on some wide skis and go fast and use a lot of power in your turns and you should be just fine getting through the mashed potatoes..in a typical warmer ski season you're gonna encounter spring conditions a lot so might as well work on your mashed potato skiing. Get forward and power through them.

Felt good to get on the XC skis again!....Snow was pretty easy to break trail through....Could get a nice kick/glide once I looped around to my tracks....

I live about 2 miles from Elk. The lights are on and the guns are blowing, although they dont plan to open tenatively till december 9. Montage, on their facebook page, said they would be blowing tonight. 

 

Im hoping with 3 nights in a row of cold temps we can maybe be skiing blue or BB on black friday

I'm definitely NOT driving to bb to "ski" the freedom shitshow ever again.

 

Im down the street from it and i have no intention of ever doing that again as well.  i would stop by and drink beer in the parking lot with the rest of the weirdos from here though.

QFT I'll only go there if big boulder park is open.

was it that crowded before?

Fuck yeah cause it's the only place open and all the Jibhonks descend.

And that lift doesn't have much capacity.

I should have done the BB wrod my senior year when they opened Nov. 9, but I left my gear at home until Thanksgiving thinking there was no way I would do it until after that...

I remember in college people wouldn't bring their ski gear up till thanksgiving. Dumb ass's

i dont see how anyone is gonna be open on Friday for the Pocono WROD.  Next 2 nights look ok for some snowmaking, but thurs-fri look stupidly warm.

 

Low 50s is not stupid warm. If big boulder can blow alot tonight they'll be fine for Friday. Blue has confirmed that December 4th is earliest possible opening.

They got 3 days of McSnow blowing before the warm temps return, 3 days of above above freezing temps, chance of rain on Saturday and then the cold moves back in.  No reason not to get some limited runs groomed by Friday or next week. I'm gearless down here anyway, but cheering for local weather to cooperate.

line is a bit long, mid day you wait about 5 min to get on lift  but not horrible.  the bigger issue is that if you dont do boxes or rails, you are left a sliver of white on the side of the features, which is mostly ice

I didnt realize they open at 9. I remember 10am openings at BB

STFU Doug... BB is too steep for you, stick with Blue Hill.
