Lucky #7 EC Roll Call 2013-14!

^^^ This.

Cold day at okemo with the old folks Surprisingly good coverage given the time of year.

Dubious of the storm, very dubious, but hopeful.




And toppers, a bit of a change for this go around.

[grubbers]

safe to assume manny and jay will be in after tomorrow, but others maybe not so much? my definition of "in play" might be a slightly more conservative than others...

Some shots may be ok to ski after this storm passes through, but I'd still give those mountains one more storm before charging into the woods. My rule of thumb is typically 40" at the snow stake and the BC and woods in the Stowe area are safe to start exploring.

^^^^^This. I am sure many people will be skiing the woods tomorrow. I will not be one of them.

Thunder Ridge.... Bitches..

Looks like an anthill from route 22

I've driven past it a gazillion times, work relate and others

don't live far from there nowadays...looked at their trail map today, some "black diamonds"..some woods?...

gravitylover you must know this place like the back of your hand...

More, because this is the mood I'm in

$29 at Someday Bigger and the Loaf with Maine ID this Sunday. Planning to leave from Portland early Sunday morning if anyone wants to share a ride.

I'll probably be at the River as it looks like they will have the most terrain with some sort of base.

This storm should be enough for much of Sugarloaf to start opening up once they do some dozing and marking, they were a couple inches short for much of the groomed terrain on natural snowfall so far.

The Pine side of Shawnee should be good to go after the storm, I believe they are cleaning up all the snowmaking gear Pine side and moving over to pound the East side this evening.

Please stay out of the woods indefinitely, for your good, and mine.

Yep, enough warning for me. Grabbing the headlamp and making an early go before the rest of beantown arrives. I wanna get a good lap in with the new boards before switching to junkers for the joey slalom.
mrg, kmart, or... pico! anyone?

Moderate snow at base of Killington now, minimal accumulation so far.

Good times sliding at K with Powbmps, Peruvian and his buddy. Sorry to have not found Gepeto. My phone is not very smart so did not get your pm's. Hope you have a good day tomorrow.
Left the 7D in the pack so no pics of groomer skiing. Was very cold but thankfully no wind and only a little frost nip on my nose. Saw a few funny characters on the hill with no goggs/glasses and a middle aged "cowboy" w/ hat and script glasses but no ear protection. No sign of G-man, you gonna be around the Bush?
Powbmps and I have Fox44 cards so next get together will likely be at one of the options on the card. If anyone wants to put together a day at their Fox44 home resort, post it up!

Snow has started to fall bob and the temp is up 2.5`in the last 1/2 hour to 9.7`, out tomorrow on either Praxis mountain Jibs or lotus 120's, both waxed and ready.

Nice kid pic, good to see you around Cousin F, call me and come up witth SS for a visit, door is always open.

Gib Says Looks like a nice short reset Friday after a week of snowshowers, BC might just start coming around in time for x-mas. [to avoid teh crowds]



[edit] Looks ^^^ like it might even snow at Whiteface

They had the Limbo on draft at the Bush 2 weeks ago, it's good shit, we thought one but three later said , tab! Good thing it was a 50 second drive home, now a short ski. Doses? where?

C'mon! Why you guys so hard on"The Face"!

Nevermind. Nothing to see here...

[ex-powderbroker]

EarlyWood, Thunder Ridge probably won't get the steep stuff open until after they bomb it a few times but if they do get it open it's safe to say you won't get better skiing in near you so bring your big boy sticks!

In all seriousness, a run is only a few turns but they should be a good few turns because it's dumping.

If you see any racer kids from Chappaqua make sure to ask if they know the Clintons.


And don't let me down with teh stokes, everyone!

More from Snow Ridge at the NYSkiBlog, nice work miker.
