Go "big screen" and turn up the volume.

    WATCH THIS NOW!




    Seriously, it is mind blowing. Amazing filming and even more amazing scenery.

    Where's the snow report from the hill, I'm guessing not a whole lot since you didn't say.
    Lets see what happens up high. Profiles could turn in our favor.

    I am saying 3- 4" maybe new from last night. At least its not melting and we are building a base. They were blowing also. Sat should be fun skinning again with potential for really fun if this upslope hit the northern greens the way it looks like it could. Not riding lifts until more opens, plus I like skiing pow. 6 days on skins and powder so far this year. Looking to extend that this weekend

    I know it not an ideal start to the season but its been falling if you know where to look and dont mind some scrapes on teh skis. Might head up for a lap this afternoon, definitely looking soft up there.

    At least it has been cold out there so a decent amount of terrain has coverage from earlier in the season. Might get a little here and there http://powderchasers.com/category/forecasts. I'm headed there after new years and worried about the same situation.

    So far I've only found '01-'02 with a worse base building start per mansfield stake.

    Have that plane re-routed to AK. Southeast has been getting hammered. Bluebird's mountain might have the most snow in the US right now and more snow in the forecast. And here I sit in my tiny little office, playing a tiny violin with my WHINE and cheese.

    In other news, I have just received word that Magic's new groomer just got delivered.

    So I'll just ran that by the pilot and he'll drop me off? Sounds easy.

    AK is next year I hope. What's the name of Matt's new resort? I keep the forgetting the name.

    We could definitely use a new tv in our sharehouse. Our tv is maybe 20" with a line/shadow across the top of the screen. It would definitely help us out a lot!

    I'll probably do the same, or skin magic if there's enough snow for that.

    If you guys need another hand with the TV then please feel free to reach out (and around...)

    I'll be leaving Hells Kitchen around 7 or so and heading to Bondville, I can deliver it in the am if needed.

    The scale of that place is absurd, beautiful, and scarey all at the same time.
    Aim for the chopping block. If you aim for the wood, you will have nothing. Aim past the wood, aim through the wood.

    On the bright side:
    A weak cold front this morning will continue summit fog and snow before tapering by the midday hours as a ridge of Canadian high pressure builds down. Snow totals will be light with a trace to less than a half an inch expected this morning. The quick ridge will bring a drier air mass in allowing for some afternoon clearing on and above the summits. Despite some sunshine working in, temperatures will remain fairly steady through the day as cool northern air pours down. As the high departs overnight, a low over the Great Lakes will move northeast spreading a warm front in. This will bring clouds and eventually summit fog back in as well as some precipitation heading into Thursday. Cold air in place ahead of the front will allow for mostly snow overnight; but as temperatures warm heading into Thursday, precipitation will transition to sleet, freezing rain and possibly even some rain by the afternoon hours. Snowfall will be 2-4 inches but ice accumulations Thursday could potentially be large depending on how fast temperatures warm. And temperatures won't be the only thing increasing over the forecast period; as the low passes to our north and the high departs to the southeast over the forecast period, winds will also be increasing, possibly reaching the century mark by Thursday afternoon.

    At least this system should help add some base to the gullies in the Whites...

    I'll be staying @ Jackson Gore. If Magic's open, I'll see you there. If not, call/text/pm and we can hook up @ Okemo.

    Outstanding, thanks! I'll hit you via PM w/ details.

    Edit: Or not. Looks like you don't have enough posts to get a PM. I'll make a couple of calls & see if I can track down your # and will send you a text.

    some kiddie stoke, been taking my son up to the notch to ski. 108 is perfectly pitched for my gimpy self to jog after him holding the reigns. He likes the up and down and is now skiing without an edgy wedgy. Gullies are starting to fill in with white and winter. Gonna be a while until they are skiable.

    Hoping the next time I ski deep is not Japan in Feb.



    Up






    Down
