    McCauley, Snow Ridge and Woods Valley should all get a good hit in the next 25 hours....

    Funny how the snow just stops at the Canadian border.

    They really have taken this Covid lockdown seriously.

    Is that your base of operations? I've never been there.

    Used to pass by on my way from from the former Branch Covidian compound to various points in the Adks.

    They do not need tgAt, they have the Poutine Curtain. It is a formidable defense.

    Any CNY upstaters have advice on Lab, Song or Toggenburg? Seems like Lab might have some worthy trees. Is this true? Anybody ski any of em yet this year?

    I havent been to them in nearly 40 years but I remember really good trees at Labrador. I have friends up there that choose Song as their home hill. Togg is fun but no trees at all other than islands in a field. There's cornfields top and bottom and a cemetery along one side, it isn't a terribly steep ski area

    Id agree Tog is not worth the trip, Lab for sure. Song? Meh...

    Heh.
    The big thing that sticks with me about skiing in that area is that if it looks like it's flattening out it's about to become a big pain in the ass so stop and try to figure out if there's an option that goes downhill. It's all ledges so flat is really flat, expect to trudge through balls deep shit for a while if you get stuck in one of those spots.

    A few people feel the rain. Most people just get wet.
