We got about 7" of glop at the Base o Magic overnight. It was raining lightly when I got up and by the time I tried to blow it off my driveway, it was full-on slush. Like the kind when you step on it, it's white but your footprint is a clearish grey. Base builder I guess.
Base building is encouraged
Loon is actually pretty good.

Great video. Tree skiing in New England with fresh powder and frozen waterfalls. It doesn't get much better.
My first day of the season was a beauty. Smuggs opened today with blue skies, little wind, and minimal crowds (except for the dozen foreign tourists on rental gear who each required a ride in the ‘boggan just to get to the base).

100 dollar to anyone who can post 10 link dolphin turns by end of day sunday. The ultimate troll would be taking my money, but you have to understand skiing to do it.
i don’t want to take your clams. besides, the footy i got wouldn’t prove anything, i was in the white room the whole time, tiddies soaked.
I mean I think Mont Miller has coverage right now, but still pretty far for you being a canuck.Quote:

It was like Groundhog Day with more sun and low crowds. The 3 dozen or so instructors in training didn’t help by side slipping the chokes so it was a bit more icy than the last two days.

But the power is out as well
2 7/8" of base builder at Magic this morning. Lights flickered a couple of times but no loss. Heading to Flatton soon.
Power still out
37° of glop inducing temp and bursts of sunlight

It was covered TTB from what I could see from across the street this morning but I doubt it would be enjoyable to ski yet
Flatton did not suck this morning.
Lapped Ursa (1,400' vert) 11 times in 2 hours. Snow was groomed but as soon as a few skiers got on it, it became creamy and interesting. 4 ways down from the top.
Skiing is fun.
Pulled an audible and went over for the 1-2:30 “late lunch” shift. Figured you were - or had been - there. Skiing was still very good, but heavy snow and light crowds will do that. Empty.Quote:
