I think that means skiing backwards. Not for me! I kinda like to see where I'm going....

... or just ski facing forward 🤷🏻‍♂️. I can easily ski 50 more years without ever having the slightest desire to ski backwards.

Nope, I have absolutely zero dating prospects. I can barely take care of myself and would be the worst parent ever.

Parent?  Dating is just about having some fun with a lady or a man if you’re ghey.  If you don’t wanna get a girl pregnant just don’t go past third base.

We had a great day at Elk today.  Spent most of the day on the quad side and the whole family enjoyed it.  There was fresh snow blown on the ungroomed trails, and the bumps were nice and soft.  It even started snowing pretty hard for a bit and there was a decent couple of inches on top of the bumps on Chippewa.  My son and I were the first tracks down and it was a blast!  The kids enjoyed Tunkhannock also and I’m really happy that they are keeping up with me.

Wow, that's nucking futs how it snows up there all the time when it doesnt here. That's exactly how it was when I was there 2 weeks ago and it was sickbird! JohnnyLaw and I were just talking about how Elk's climate is so different than Blue's even though it's not so far away. Radical!

Since there are no pics of @NMSKI in his report I'm just going to imagine he looked something like this

Wao, NMSki got 5 boner cities. WTGAI. There should be an annual award for most boner cities on a post. Winner gets a purple cucumber.

Be nice to Salty

We had another great day today.  This weekend was cold as balls but the sun was shining which was nice.  The grooming and the snow really was nice.  The conditions were so nice that my wife was enjoying the groomed black runs which is a big step up in challenge, and my kids were wanting to ski bumps almost every run!  I think we’ll do a weekend up there every year from now on we had so much fun.  Lift tix were pretty cheap, and the restaurant was decent and really cheap for a ski area.  Place was 100% open except for the one natural snow run.

Longest line on the quad was between 5 and 10 minutes on Saturday at the peak. Way less crowded today.

I don’t wanna hate on good old Blue, but there wasn’t a cookie to be found either.

Not that you can ski the trees, but was there any natural snow off of the trails?
