(Wind strips all the snow from the other side of the trail -- yesterday the base depth was already at least a couple feet deep in many places.)
Jay skied great. It rained in the parking lot but was all snow up above. Snow was wet but not mank. Super fun day.
Snowing pretty good at the 'loaf.. http://sugarloaf.com/the-mountain/live-web-cam
Nevermind. It's not an article about Magic Mtn. Instead it is an article about Renoun Skis.Quote:

I took a lap with the dog and skied some super-low-angle hardwoods today. Nice to be out and about on skis, even though this snow will likely be gone by tomorrow. I'm claiming first turns in the Hinterlands, just 'cause no one else is.

Oh hell yes. Nice work. Happy Halloween indeed.
That looks better than pretty much everything I saw from last "winter". :yourock:
Late to this party, but better late than never. Can't wait to get out and to see some of you at ESAW.
There is so much going on in Vt, Nh, Me and Quebec with legally cutting woods trails both at the resorts and non lift served. I would guess skiable terrain has expanded by 25% in the last 3 years and will likely expand by another 25% in the next two years. This is all natural terrain with no snow making.
Think it is going to be a good year

Not sure accurate this is, but reflects the precip. since the snow started. Currently 35` bob with something that is decidedly not snow falling.

Hey photos everyone !
I'm hoping to take a day trip tomorrow for a lap or two. Would love an opinion if Pico is still skiable or if there's substantialy more snow at Jay, both are equal distance from home (central whites).
Anyone care to make a recommendation?
Oftentimes yes. Particularly if said party involves downhill schuss on fluff with maggots. After two winters without a single day on skis I'm feeling the fever again.Quote:

Thought I posted these already, but now they are gone?
Photos Dalton took yesterday at Jay.
At about 3,300 feet, the snow flakes got HUGE. Wish I had a picture but they were each at least an inch in diameter, some more than 2.
I think you spaced out, I didn't see them.
Octobers dream is melting away, one more from Friday

Nice Aprilia sticker. Glad you got some turns too!
K'ton with MNIAW and some non-mags was fun today. There was nice cream cheese if you dug it out of the edges.
Oh fuck yeah, bud! Oct -》June ☆☆☆☆☆
CCC Trail Update:
Coppermine is good to go. New flowing line bypasses narrow hiker section between 2350' and 2400'.

It is a bypass! You've got to build bypasses!
This thread is the stoke! Wish I had gotten out last weekend.
First snow, first tracks and now the first rescue of the season! :fmicon:
No working lights, but hopefully they were packing...Quote:
