So?...Your trip threads have like 6 different sub threads....Is all that really necessary? 1 1 Quote

I think only this one and Zonked's Whiteface thread... I mean if the mod squad deletes this thread then I guess I'll go back to Zonked's thread. They already deleted half of my tags 1 Quote
GSSucks Posted February 2, 2021 Report Posted February 2, 2021 Can we change the title of this thread? I got real excited that this was going to be a legit thread about someone actually skiing in the Dacks, not about Whiteface 1 4 1 Quote

Schif Posted February 2, 2021 Report Posted February 2, 2021 I support the decision to start a new trip report thread. Keep things nice and neat by separating trips. So Please don't fuck it up with dumb posts. Dak action only please 1 1 Quote
guitar73 Posted February 2, 2021 Report Posted February 2, 2021 @saltyant have you been to WF before? also, in a normal year the food options in LP are the bomb. I'm interested to see how LP is fairing under Comrade Cuomo's reign. Quote

The funny thing is the first time I skied at whiteface there was 6-8” of fresh and very little winds. Salty is getting it perfectly. He always finds the Perder on trips. Good thing he has RTMs 2 1 Quote

You're welcome and any time! You were mostly right about the Interstates. The worst segments were I-84 in the Poke-n-Hoes, and I-87 north of Albany. Then the last root from the interstate to Lake Placid was entirely snow covered and the approx 20 mile drive felt like 2 hours. Sonic handled exceptionally well on my no season tires. Eventually I made it and just ordered flounder at the Chinese restaurant Edited February 2, 2021 by saltyant 1 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 2, 2021 Report Posted February 2, 2021 Salty you are in for some sweet Perder tomorrow at Whiteface as the little white face lift and summit lifts were closed today and on windhold..sadly the gondola isn’t open tomorrow but the little whiteface lift takes you to the same spot. Have a blast!! 1 1 Quote
saltyant Posted February 2, 2021 Author Report Posted February 2, 2021 (edited) @GrilledSteezeSandwich I put windshield wiper fluid in my Chevy Sonic all by myself. Are you proud of me? I tried calling you for step by step guidance but the number you gave me didnt work (867-5309) Edited February 2, 2021 by saltyant 2 1 1 Quote

Have a blast!! That's a bit of a bummer that the gondola is closed. I was hoping to ride that most of the day since I think the rest of the lifts are super slow (other than the mid mountain). Regardless itll be a grate day ! 1 Quote
