Early lift issues at Bolton were quickly forgotten on the natural snow trails full of big bumps. 🤞🏼on a net positive tomorrow night.

Curious to see how this storm pans out for VT. Forecast keeps trending better.
Sbush could use it!
I saw a bunch of kids jump off of the rock on the CastleRock hike yesterday.
Seemed like a dumb idea but they were having fun.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...bd6bd2884e.jpg
Such a great little store to grab stuff on the way to and from the hill.Quote:

Back to the Maine bc. Not nearly the 3’ Vt likes, but we take what we can get. Phone only came out for one run and not the best photos to choose from. Surprised to be skiing uncut snow every run at this popular area. Between Wednesday and Saturday I learned my way around. Sure it’s a hoot when the snow is deep.

BUT the snow totals north and east look obscene. could be a nice escape if anyone has time and wants to put some miles on.
I’m glad you are on board this year [emoji123]. IMO this is the best way to “work” on the mountain!Quote:

Watching the Jay area hoping the optimistic forecasts turn out.
In other news, there have been two skier caught avalanches up on Mount Washington the past few days. One in Airplane that sounds pretty gnarly and one in the bowl.

^ nah, you want to wear a red jacket and black pants when ducking ropes so you look like every other tourist on the hill.

Rained all night here at the Base o Magic. Started snowing at 7am. Temps marginal at 32.5
Hoping the folks further north saw a bit more of the white stuff.
Dropping into Airplane Gully in early December is pretty bold. Hope he recovers.Quote:

fun times hangin' with Peruvian and Doremite at the TeleColo film on Friday night; cheers guys!
Was part of the late arrival crew at the Bush on Saturday after a big night out on the town, but the snow was soft and bumps were fun for Day #1. Ripped a few laps on Sunday morning before/during the weather, honestly the groomers were a lot of fun with the warm temps and fresh groom; classic new england slop fest once the precip started falling but still good to be out.
My first ever venture thru the Mad Riv. Valley did not disappoint. Had dinner at the Blue Stone Saturday night; that place was fantastic. Overall feels good to be back in the swing of things; hoping last night/today is a net gain and we end up in good position moving forward.
Gave the wiods a try and wasn’t disappointed, but certainly still a lot of open streams and barely buried reef. This line was a-ok though. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...45aacd1d7b.jpg

It’ll be great to focus on developing the stuff I really enjoy without going balls deep into the organizational shitshow I want absolutely nothing to do with.
Now I’ve got to find some reasonably priced heated socks or insoles though, my toes’ ability to stay warm is destroyed from the cold during the Ops tenure and I already know it’s going to be an issue.

Following up on my question from a month ago... I think I've narrowed the decision for the 23rd down to Belleayre or Plattekill.
Looks like Plattekill is scheduled to open this Saturday, anyone have a read on conditions over there? Are they opening 2 trails or most of the mountain?
Can get tickets for $70 at Platty and $94 at Belleayre.
Which place is radder?
pkill is def radder terrain and bar-wise, but belle is radder snowmaking and snow holding-wiseQuote:
