There is snow up north. This morning's chair:

Paulster, I agree! It is Winter 22/23 reboot V. 7.01. The chair reports 10+ cm of nice dense fresh snow on top of the most recent crustaceous period. Get it while you can (which seems to be the...

Thank you, sir. We are honoured. If I was an American, I would be upstate.

Mont Chilly trip is postponed. Life is too short to drive 3.5 hours to ski on shitty snow. This weather blows.

Cool, see you there introduce yourself (I'm the old guy, LOL). Stop by AO in Oxtongue Lake on your way to/from Mew, that's where I work.



Good system, I do that much of time.

Road trip to...

We're just up from upstate.

I have lost count of winter resets this season. This was from yesterday, prime conditions if you could manage the deep freeze (high of -24 C, -12 F). Effing cold.

Today we had a fine...

Finally, the local woods are in play! Secret stash just outside of Huntsville:

^ My iron was shorting out at the other end, so I replaced the plug. Quick and easy. Not sure what I would if it occured at iron end, maybe replace the cord. But, yeah, good times.

Keeping up with...

Thanks, man. The red-handled irons are way faster.

People in another forum gave me grief over electrical safety, FFS.

I am actually going to ride a chair at Sir Sam's on Monday so thought it would be a good idea to wax my skis. It occurred to me that I have been using this iron for this purpose since I was a...

Dood, you are in Montreal so Edelweiss, Calabogie, Chilly and maybe Antoine are in your easy range. Anything else means that you really want to go there (like Bellevue Valley Lodge), If you drove to...

I'm too lazy to re-post so here is a link to the current situation up in Muskoka (and if you are thinking about a trip to NY state, this site is a great resource):

Flatter than what, MSLM? Boler? This is no winter to be be fussy about inclination. Go where the snow is.

While it poured rain yesterday in Huntsville, turns out that it snowed a little farther north. Mt. Antoine reported 25 cm of new snow this morning. Might be worth a drive to Mattawa.

The chair is pretty sad-looking but we still have a foot or so of shitty snow on the ground after the big melt. There is fresh snow in the forecast and the brave WWHSTA folks are going to attempt a...

No black flies now. This was yesterday. No skiing due to snow removal duties after a week away from home, not to mention the power outage:

Getting comfier by the day!

The chair earlier today. A good accumulation of excellent snowball and snowperson-making snow for winter 4.0. Not great snow for skiing but a great base, let's hope it sticks around. The resorts will...

Talk to ex-powderbroker, he is possibly the one and only Mag living in La Belle Provence.

The chair is undergoing Winter Reboot 3.0, it was too dark to get a picture today (before and after work!). Meanwhile, Sir Sam's opened this weekend, web cams showed pretty decent coverage. Hidden...

Now we are getting somewhere. This morning:

[QUOTE=ex-powderbroker;6730722]lol, was that really a provincial slogan?

Totally was the license plate slogan for many years until Drug Lord changed it to "A Place to Grow." Ontari-ari-ari-o. ...

Vive la difference!

A foot? Ha. 10 cm = 3.93701 inches. A foot is 30.48 cm. Metric rules for optimism.

Ha, good plan. I think that Paulster's opening day estimates are a bit conservative. I heard from a reliable source that both Antoine and Hidden Valley are aiming for December 16 opening. Forecast is...

Snow chair report, November 16:

Great thread title! The chair is installed and ready for action. It is currently snowing here in the northland and the ground seems frozen, which is good for accumulation.

We did some good work...
