skifreak Posted November 23, 2004 Report Posted November 23, 2004 Got a call from my uncle. Told me to go on the webcam and watch for a truck to come out at the base of the mountain and then watch what happens. Waited about 2 mins and the lights came on! Brings a tear to my eye Quote
skidude Posted November 23, 2004 Report Posted November 23, 2004 Yeah, now all we need to do is wait for it to get about 20 degrees colder Quote
skifreak Posted November 23, 2004 Author Report Posted November 23, 2004 haha thats true but you never know what could happen! Quote
AtomicSkier Posted November 23, 2004 Report Posted November 23, 2004 haha thats true but you never know what could happen! Quote
AtomicSkier Posted November 23, 2004 Report Posted November 23, 2004 I SEE THE LIGHTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
Sno Mountain Skier Posted November 23, 2004 Report Posted November 23, 2004 the camera makes it look deciving as if there was snow on the ground sence it is so bright. Quote
skifreak Posted November 24, 2004 Author Report Posted November 24, 2004 the camera makes it look deciving as if there was snow on the ground sence it is so bright. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I know the glare is so bright it looks like snow. I remember when it got real dark it looked like there was snow on the ground and for a minute I actually thought it did snow Quote
train36 Posted November 24, 2004 Report Posted November 24, 2004 Thats funny, I just checked their website before coming here, its nice to see the lights on , I think temps are suppose to get colder beginning next week, hopefully some snowmaking soon Quote

Brings a tear to my eye <{POST_SNAPBACK}> whos ur uncle.. i must know him b/c i was working on vista 2 night when they turned lights on... whats his first name? Quote
skifreak Posted November 24, 2004 Author Report Posted November 24, 2004 My uncles name is bill. However you probably didn't see him last night because he does all the running around because he has been doing this for years. Its really hard to find him because he does almost everything himself and checks on the guns himself. What were you doing last night on vista? Quote
kmar2006 Posted November 25, 2004 Report Posted November 25, 2004 cleaning tips on guns.. were done with vista... but its raining in town now so it sux.. Quote
skifreak Posted November 25, 2004 Author Report Posted November 25, 2004 I know this weather sux. I was just looking at the weahter and it gets cool next week but then heats up again for next week. I'm telling you this is going to be a repeat of 2001. Then again everyday I look at the weather its always different one day it goes into a deep freeze the next day it is a mix of hot and cool temps.

tretiak Posted November 27, 2004 Report Posted November 27, 2004 im praying it gets colder sooner Quote
skifreak Posted November 27, 2004 Author Report Posted November 27, 2004 im praying it gets colder sooner <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Me too, so far the weather forecast has stayed the same all day thats a record because usually I was checking it about 5 times a day and it always changed with high temps. Then again every weather place has different temps so who knows. Hopefully it will stay cold Quote

skifreak Posted November 27, 2004 Author Report Posted November 27, 2004 Yeah same hear it gives me the results I want to hear for anywhere around here. Quote
tretiak Posted November 27, 2004 Report Posted November 27, 2004 i was in nestors today and it looks great! Quote
skifreak Posted November 27, 2004 Author Report Posted November 27, 2004 Yeah it looks awesome inside I was there last Saturday when they opened. But it didn't look like they had everything there when I was there. Quote
insomniac Posted November 27, 2004 Report Posted November 27, 2004 Why did they put in garages?? They look like they take up like half the store. Quote
skifreak Posted November 27, 2004 Author Report Posted November 27, 2004 The garage is there becasue they downsized that store to only be for mountain sports only. All other sports are down in quakertown. He probably had to downsize up there because there is just to much sporting competition on macarthur road. Quote
Justo8484 Posted November 29, 2004 Report Posted November 29, 2004 the garages are for strauss auto, not us. yeah the store is way smaller now, unfrotunately. its only ski, snowboard, and wilderness travel right now, and bike shop will be back in the spring. and to comment on the mtn, my friends and i drove up friday night like 1 in the morning, and there was snow on the ground, with what looked like cats or snowmobiles driving up and down paradise. ITC is the 11th and 12th, so it would make sense that they would be pushing to open the 10th. Quote

Justo8484 Posted November 29, 2004 Report Posted November 29, 2004 there was friday night, i kinda doubt it anymore after the rain and warm weather the past few days though. Quote
tretiak Posted November 30, 2004 Report Posted November 30, 2004 the cold temps the next few nites will help them make some snow .thurs,fri,and sat look to be good snowmaking days Quote
AtomicSkier Posted November 30, 2004 Report Posted November 30, 2004 the cold temps the next few nites will help them make some snow .thurs,fri,and sat look to be good snowmaking days they look to be marginal. Good is when the high is only 32. But i don't know WHEN we will see a good 24 hr snowmaking day. I guess they'll just have to do without it Quote
