This Saturday December 4th.

Whos game?

[DiMe]

I am but I cant make it out until 3pm class in the morning. Ill be there for first trax Sunday morning though also.

[Ride Delaware ?]

4th is possible depending on their current coverage... Anybody seen it?

[toast21602]

i would go.

[AngryHugo]

probably won't be able to go until Sunday, but I'd be game

[Switchsideskier.]

Where is it announced...I'd like to go if they can pull it off with this weeks weather. Are they charging $35 like opening day last year? You can actually get speed Marjies unlike Freedom at boulder just watch out for the whoop Dee dos.

From their site:

 

WE WILL CONTINUE TO MAKE SNOW AND SAVE WHAT'S BEEN MADE FOR A FANTASTIC OPENING WEEKEND THIS SATURDAY, DECEMBER 4, 2010.

 

I can't believe you are opening the same day we are! The power of snowmaking! We have to wait for Ullr.

If Camelback isn't open Saturday, I'm going back to Belleayre. They will be open.

[RootDKJ]

I'm at my moms for dinner. Later tonight.

I saw Camelback from 80 yesterday. Some snow blown, but did not seem like anything was covered. Of course, it is hard to see from the road.

Camelback Mountain

WE JOINED FORCES WITH MOTHER NATURE FOR SOME AWESOME SNOWMAKING.

There's no way that with Boulder opening today they aren't going to do everything in their power to get open this weekend.

[toast21602]

yup. see ya there. probably Boulder saturday and Camel sunday.

[DiMe]

yup. see ya there. probably Boulder saturday and Camel sunday.

 

Sounds good, like I said earlier post I can't make it early on Saturday because of class. PASR day at Camel on Sunday would be perfect

[toast21602]

i agree.

[DiMe]

probably won't be able to go until Sunday, but I'd be game

 

Will be nice to finally meet a fellow PASR knuckle dragger !

[Switchsideskier.]

I'm game for PASR day on Sunday. I was gonna go to Killington but nobody wants to go with me so I'll just stick it here in PA.

damn right! we put the ride in paskiandride.

[Ride Delaware ?]

No kidding... When I went with the crew to CB 2 years ago, I was "riding" solo...

[OutCold]

I think they can do it....lows wednesday thursday friday are 26, 24, 23

[Ride Delaware ?]

I agree... I'm sure this heavy r&*n will wash most of what they made away, but the temps should be able to cooperate for a weekend opening... I'm more worried about how boulder will hold up since they groomed it out and Jeff himself said that the base was adequate, but thin...

Boulder will just have to start over. I'm not confident that temps will be as low as forecasted Wednesday-Friday nights. Humidity looks higher than the last period meaning a higher wet bulb temp. I hope I'm wrong but it's gonna be close.

Don't be a stoke stomper Dougie they will pull through and get it open for us only takes a few nights. I just hope the arch on my right foot feels better by the weekend all this walking around my building and the city is hurting my feets!

[DiMe]

I'm not being a stoke stomper I'm being a realist...I think Camelback has like a 60% shot at pulling it off.

I give em an 85% chance snow at home snowmaking forecast is still looking good from wed on.

[Schif]

I'll be there Sunday if they're open.

[RootDKJ]

Temps look solid once this ncp storm passes tomorrow night.
