Edelweiss Chair and beyond... Alpental , The valley and the rest of snocrummy

[snoqpass]

Based on the hours page, Alpental starts with nights on Jan 4. They list 9 a.m. to 10 p.m.

I cannot wait, and hope to meet many of you on some fantastically cold and dumping nights with endless refills. Nights are unfortunately going to be my best windows without family. (except on huge days where I say screw the consequences, and just make it happen!)

Don’t bank on the 10pm closing

I got a "change for a nickel" sticker on the back of my helmet and no one has ever asked for change...

when i first moved up here i saw some folks in Lot 4 that looked like mags, went up to them and announced "Hey, i'm Californiagrown. Anyone have change for a nickel?!"

they were not mags, and were not impressed with this new california transplant. And i have never asked that again.

What do mags "look like?" Curious what our stereotypes are to you.

middle age men, dressed in nice, but used outerwear huddled around a fire drinking beer in Lot 4, in the dark. Still is generally my impression.

I cannot wait to fit right into that stereotype this year.

Edit: I think my gear is nice, old, but nice...

Love the pics, SVS!

No Flowing's Suns jersey makes him look like a bandwagon fan, but we know he's been wearing it for years.

puma, I'll send you a PM with my contact info. My 14yo is my "gamer" as well. Solid ski technique, but needs a bit more motivation to really get after it.

[Yonder_River]

Had a nice early version of Wildside Wednesday today. Good vis and snow was a nice start to my season. Glad they kept it passholders, two thumbs up on that.

Ugh, I guess that's what I get for not switching months. I'm glad you are smarter than me. [emoji28] Stoked we are back to 10pm! Will be looking for kooks and don't be shy. I got a "change for a nickel" sticker on the back of my helmet and no one has ever asked for change...

I'll be there for my share of nights and will keep an eye out for ya. Speaking of tween/teen boys, my oldest is almost 13 and is turning into a pretty motivated skier and will be up some of those nights. Grey helmet, blue OR jacket, black snowboard for me.

Slammed with meetings tomorrow, but hoping to get up Thursday or Friday. Looks like they are projecting 12/22 as opening for Alpental and Saturday for Center. Night skiing starts next week at both West and Central but not Alpental. Probably safer that way, but really looking forward to some Alpy under the lights.

Tentative date based on conditions

Just here to temper expectations, eh? haha


NOAA had big expectations for this weekend, but revised them down significantly with the warming. Hoping for some heavy easterly flow and we get the padded seats spinning by sometime next week!

Some condition checking at Alpental on the Gram.

I think we're going to need to use this thread for a nightly Mag roll call.

[jacob_dbu]

Does anyone know how I can redeem these 50% off day passes for friends and family?

It’s says it can only be redeemed at the window, but then it also says tickets can only be purchased in advance online so ???

Last season you had to go to the ticket window with your pass. Call them to confirm, though.

[californiagrown]

I think I'm gonna bank on the freezing rain keeping folks away and ski Saturday. Im betting Sunday is a zoo.

[bfree]

I'll be up solo tomorrow if anyone wants to roll laps at central. Or I could easily be convinced to tour alpental (not closed off yet, right?)
Edit: a day late for alpy, I suppose pineapple pass area then.
