    It was really nice spring skiing this morning. First day at Mt Ellen. They finally started running the northridge lift and we gambled that they could keep it running. Got in a bunch of laps with no one there. Bit socked in up high. Best skiing of the year!

    Foster always knows what's up. That's why we ask him every lift bump

    Got in a couple of days at Sutton. Its a good hill if you've never been and curious about it. 45 mins from Jay, interesting terrain, lots of double-fall line runs- almost felt a little like a mellower General Starks Mtn. Mostly fixed grip old-school lifts. Would be pretty fun on a pow day I would think. Seems like the forecast temps have dropped a little, bring on the rebound...

    50, sunny, and dry… I embraced it and pulled the motorcycle out of the garage for the first ride of 2023. I’d rather be skiing but waddya gunna do?

    It's not quite the level of GetAmped circa 2014, but some mid mountain charcuterie today (albeit out west)

    Does anyone have a recommendation for a side angle bevel on the Bauers? Thinking about going for a backcountry skate / polar bear swim. We'll see!

    well I skied a little bit over the holidays; Bristol up in WNY last Wednesday, they didn't have a ton open but it was like 35 sunny and soft, fun day cruising around with my pops, felt like one of the good ol' days!

    headed up to Jay for New Years; skied Friday thru Monday and I have to say that Friday and Saturday really exceeded expectations; they still had a bunch of terrain open and it felt like true spring skiing. Saturday was a blast with a big crew, we skied in Hawaiian shirts, grilled hot dogs in the parking lots, drank beers on the lift, it was a blast. Sunday was still soft, but the wind was blowin' sideways and we were all banged up from NYE so got a few runs in and called it. Monday we lapped some of the easier terrain before heading home, the base had definitely firmed up a bit but we got like 2" of Jay cloud cream-cheese on top which skied surprisingly well.

    All in all a great time over the holidays, but really hoping for some dang snow sometime soon. Cheers everyone!

    I met and skied with the guy IRL and he's actually a good guy, though he tends to rile people up on the interwebz,.

    Not making judgements on his character but anybody who has read his posts knows that he knows everything but most especially everything about edge bevel.
