I predict a Shitshow of Epic Proportions at Snow on SatQuote:

Making my fat pow rock skis wicked shahhhrrp… because you never know what lurks below. They cut through twigs and spark rocks better with a fresh 1/3* from das Pansar file.
A ton of cars already in $towe. Stoked for the Catamount trail and if its heavy enough snow some low angle touring to open up.Quote:

Early storms on dirt and ice are just BBEs.
Looks more like Mt. Crumpit.Quote:

a nod to hunter dress code?
Rangers, or maybe Islanders. I save my Bills jacket for pow days at Holiday Valley.
At least it's pretty down the WROD.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...ebe2570cdf.jpg

Can’t make it up tomorrow, but trying to do Windham on Tuesday. Totally useless four days after a storm + weekend, or will I at least have a good base to take advantage of?
So, you're on an internet ski forum (which is connected to the internet) and you have to ask a bunch of dimwits if Plattekill is open? Now I know why buttah never posts here any more.Quote:

Will be at Smugglers Notch with Peruvian tomorrow. His helmet is yellow and we will likely be the only two telemark skiers there so won’t be hard to find us. May go back Monday morning depending on what the weekend delivers. Fam focused skiing, if any, over the weekend. Stoked winter has finally showed up to the party. Bring it.
Magic is planning on opening Sunday if the storm delivers
Either gore or ktown Saturday first thing. Fire orange pants blue helmet. Either blue yellow saga jacket or muted beige jacket.
Ask for change.

Happy to report I am at Bromley, and it’s snowing pretty good at 10pm with some accumulation already. Looking at radar with ocean effect rain heading straight west into the storm and up the spine it’s gonna thump. And this is just the start. Winners will legit report 30+. Will try to report in am but excuse me in advance if I blow you all off to skin up pre open…..
Pretty confident Magic opens Sunday.
Skiing is fun. Snow storms are funner.
