Popular Post RidgeRacer Posted March 30, 2021 Popular Post Report Posted March 30, 2021 The bluest of blue bird beautiful spring today. Snows great... non-existent off piste. Very thin, fading fast but nice on. Made it in less than 3 hours with a pee stop / gas fill up. Looking out toward plattekill and it looks rough over there (not sure if they're even open). Time to work on the goggle tan. Grate day! 10 Quote
RidgeRacer Posted March 30, 2021 Author Report Posted March 30, 2021 Really thin in spots...brown and bare in certain areas require pumping the brakes. Similar to what blue looked like last week Quote
RidgeRacer Posted March 30, 2021 Author Report Posted March 30, 2021 Took my first real fall off the season on onteora. Slammed the brakes hard when I saw a bare spot prompting a fall. I guess it was better than hitting it and ejecting forward. Definitely rough in spots. Definitely can't let it go which is somewhat frustrating but it is what it is given the weather I guess. 6 Quote
mbike-ski Posted March 30, 2021 Report Posted March 30, 2021 Think they'll make it to Sunday? Cooler temps and some rain/snow Thursday Quote

Definitely can't let it go which is somewhat frustrating but it is what it is given the weather I guess I know that feeling. After I fell hard at Park City I was shaken up a bit and started making really dumb mistakes all day from my nerves. After that, the next 4 days I was confident again and skied just fine 🤷🏻♂️ Edited March 30, 2021 by saltyant Quote
RidgeRacer Posted March 30, 2021 Author Report Posted March 30, 2021 Think they'll make it to Sunday? Cooler temps and some rain/snow ThursdayI was thinking about you knowing you were planning on Sunday. If I had to guess I'd say 50-50 or 60-40 they open...it'll probably be very limited though. It's not normal first week of April Belle. Snow is sparse with the exception of roaring brook which good coverage and Tongora. Everything else was thin or bare. Deer Run was ok coverage wise but fading real fast. Everything from the superchief loading area up to the lodge was more brown than white. I'd definitely keep an eye on the weather but I'd probably wouldnt expect much if they are open. If they go past this weekend I'd be shocked. Quote
