Eastcoast Roll Call TwoTwo/TwoThree A Slow Start to a Big Finish

[anotherVTskibum]

real stunner of a day hope someone is getting after it

Beautiful day for a skin at Sunday River. Sadly, looks were deceiving and what I thought was going to be a nice top layer of peel away corn was a whole lot more funky than expected.

Dog loved it, though.

The ‘bush was fine. Loafing it Saturday.

What a blast best snow in the east period
Can’t wait to go back

free laps on the jet today… apparently.

[ticketchecker]

Sugarloaf is free Monday if they stay open

Just made the call, it’s a wrap tomorrow with 2-3” of rain expected tomorrow night

yup ugly week coming up...here!
yesterday marked 2nd straight weekend-salvaging friday.
it was good.
nature walk after last chair: longer hike-to than i'd recalled
runout from canyon very long w/o snow. it had been about 15years!
double dipper bumps were great though.

^How long have you been skiing those things? Wow.

[buckethead]

i must have over 150 days on 'em.
splat figured about 155 days were on them when i got them.

they still ski great, and the workmanship speaks for itself

[ex-powderbroker]

free refills on george today (guessing). 60mph winds and 20 degrees / snow.

[charlesj]

Sugarloaf was very good. I didn’t shoot any still documentation (see above) I love the ‘loaf, but it’s kind of remote from most places

k was very grey
snow was very ok

[Aldo]

Yeah buddy. Another quality season far from over. K spring pass delivers.

[buckethead]

yea, squeezing a few more days out of season, day 9 on pass so far.
and now willing to suit up for the elements after settling into more beachy attire 6 weeks ago.
hope you're having a good off-season so far.

Wonder if this was the upper section that they just paved last summer? Not sure they're going to be able to repair all that in a couple weeks especially if the weather continues the way it has been.

That'll buff right out.

I have to be in the area anyway so thinking of doing a hike up the TRT tomorrow morning. Should I bother bringing my skis? I can't tell if the Ravine is getting rain or snow but seems like it will either be a bunch of undermined, or new snow with some avy risk.

NOAA is saying mixed precip. at 3500' (a little below the base of the bowl) and snow at 5000' (top of headwall) with temps. in the 20's tonight and 30's tomorrow. If I had to guess I'd say it's gunna be pretty sloppy in there with a lot of undermined snow, could definitely be some wet slides in that regard.

could be dangerous trying to get high up on the wall but even if you just hike up a little and make like 3+ turns I think you can add it to your day count so might be worth bringin' the twigs just in case.

[justo8484]

Agree with Boosh. Unless the sherb is totally out, worst case scenario you hike up to the bowl, scope conditions, and if it sucks you still get some turns on the sherb. I was there this past saturday and coverage was generally pretty good down low aside from like two ~25 foot sections. if things are stable, hillmans had great coverage and was an easy walk & ski over after hiking up left gully.

I think Hillman's will ski better and you can check it out from the deck at Hojo.

Unless the cloud ceiling is higher than here, Top-O-Steins, you won't see anything. And I personally wouldn't ski tux in low/no vis conditions. YMMV

[ex-powderbroker]

We lost an east coast skier in Brooklyn the other day. Be safe out there.

Thanks everyone for the advice. i checked with the caretaker at hojos and he also recommended Hillmans.
it went from mud season at the bottom to mid winter to a powday
snow up high was deep but very wet and grabby. the sherb skiied great though
