I'm just leaving, only saw NastarGlenn on the way out. I figured with the ice on my car patience would be a virtue but as of 1220 it was still a rink. In what I'd wager is a hail Mary attempt to soften things up they are blowing but with a heavy wind almost none of it was hitting the trail. Everything has a nice sheen and I couldn't find anything that wasn't a brick. Lower Main you could arc some baby footed turns but that was about it. It's nice and sunny out and it is smooth but short of well tuned racing ski there isn't much grip.

The wind on the high peaks was kinda strongish too, would have been nice if it was 10 degrees warmer but otherwise it just made your wet fingers cold.

Is mostly on lower main.....Oz and BFG crew in the house otherwise empty except for some boomer group in matching jackets. Allegedly the rain was to stop around 10 so I timed it for 930 arrival. Barely raining I figured I had timed it well but mother nature was just fucking with me. The snow was pretty mint as it should be for riding in the rain. Razors was particularly good, like a wet cream cheese the snow had infinite grip, good speed and a good cushion for getting some air. NMDW was a bit more uneven but I think that was on me for being late as it was a boomer heavy crowd and they were all about NMDW. Challenge, switch were absolutely perfect to put the hammer down and unleash your inner herminator. Boomers generally dislike those trails and alone I went big honking turn style with airs. It was divine minus the limited vis. Around 1115 the rain actually picked up and one run later I was getting wet wet and called it. Anytime I play the rain game it seems to always rain up there for longer than they think but it was super nice to make land speed record attempts on Razors on what felt like a bonus day.

Oz, c1er and VT nick in the house, maybe NastarGlenn too. I figured post Sunday and with similar weather it would be another skiiders paradise but on the way in Harold told me that yesterday was actually quite good. Vt and I went NMDW which had rather soft fast smooth cord with the occasional hard pack boost zone thrown in for good measure. Razors, challenge were similar high speed plunges with gentle but big swooping arcs. Side has been considerably mowed down which makes for much better flow though the 2nd section is still too tight particularly as its alway dark af. I'm a big switch fan and it was super nice to dh it and get some float but the hardpack is right in the lz. The only thing that actually sucks is midway is a bomb field of chicken heads and holes, raceway is very nice too so the change is quite dramatic. Way better than I thought and they did blow, we couldn't tell if the super hard stuff was where they blew or the reverse but really outside of that and midway it was a mad nice easy kinda carving day.

Well if you don't turn the wheel and now days it's all LCD but thats the most action they've gotten in years. Today the snow was not good but enjos cooking made up for it in spades.

Today the snow was underwhelming at best, you could find a patch or more accurately a groomer path where maybe you could make some turns. Otherwise shit was too high commitment to really put an edge in. Rotd was Bohdi's dogs, cheddar makes everything better.

Today was way better than i thought it would be and with the nice weather it was a solid 7 kinda day. As GSS said the snow was only ok but vastly better than yesterday morning hopefully a taste of what's coming this weekend.

I'll be there, allegedly it won't rain until 1 and from 9 to 10 the temp should increase 5-7 degrees... in theory, it's possible it won't suck.

I had meetings and couldn't do opening but was up by 930ish, c1er, OZ, BFG featuring the NastarGlenn experience in the house. Mad sun and it felt like bikini bottom out there. The snow was bricking up at the end of last night's session and I figured the late start might help. True to form anything in the shade or historical shade was quite firm. It didn't matter really the trail until the sun could do it's thing it was alot of skid type turns and lower angulation commitment. Side is extra lumpy and with its extra special darkness it was semi sketchy first thing. Around quarter after the sun angle had improved enough that the surface was starting to soften into a cream. This vastly improved the state of things and while it was patching together the non shade it made razors and NMDW alot more speedy. I had to peace out at 1130 but had you started then I bet shit was redic nice. Obviously as its gotten the absolute snot beaten out of it as of late the general amount of ruts and holes has increased substantially and razors has two monster holes in the fan out where razorback comes in. While a old standard at Blue I would issue a small craft advisory as you catch one of them and at best its a broken leg.

Rode the night shift as work just kept getting in the way. Mad kids around but absolutely zero pass holders so straight on the lift. Snow was still creamy on top but had some good rowdy piles and mega ruts. Razors was the best just mega active fast feet and hucking your meat to avoid the punji pits. Turn, turn again to go around the bomb hole then use the speed bump they worked in to air the next bomb hole and rinse and repeat. Shit was a mega hootenany and when's its good rowdy I'd argue the night session can be more fun as its a lot more interesting getting down the hill......I feel like I've said it since we quit nights but I gotta work on my night moves more often.

Meetings fucked my day but I'll be up for a night session if anyone is around.

I didn't see any going up or down on 143 but i doubt thats an enforcement area.....all in berks 61, 222 and then all through west reading, Exeter. Oz said he saw 6 from MacArthur to Blue at like 730 in the morning.

Atomic, c1er and BFG in the house, I figured with the warm up it would be a sugar factory but shit at least looked good. Crowds were moderate, nothing crazy but some lines without the old six running. Razors was first on the menu as not only was it open but it looked good as well. Sugar free, smooth, creamy fast cord that had mad grip, push that shit to 109% and slut it up for the plebs still coming up the lift. NMDW was even better as the top sequence was the same but the real cherry you could 100% the lower left. Main particularly lower was less good, more sugar and more bouncy with sharks lurking only slightly below the surface. Switch was ok but more icy and Challenge more uneven but why did you leave Razors/NMDW in the first place. Overall the snow was way better than I would have thought and full speed turns on Rasins is always worth the price of admission 👍 PSA Oz mentioned it but like the rest of us the police haven't done shit in weeks and are everywhere. I saw 11 on my drive back, all in bs speed change zones. My general approach to driving is to channel my inner Dick Tickle but mind your p's and q's today.

Challenge I thought was actually rotd on a meh conditions kinda day, after the scrabble you could make some turns. Big plus is once word gets out that it's not good you get it to yourself. That's one of the best in the hill I'd say and you can get air in 2 places traffic permitting. NMDW is the same where you can carry alot of speed on the racing line as its more straight then it feels.

Today was light years better while there was a quorum it didn't get too crazy. Nmdw was very good as was the booter on switch and we got a bonus show of the Jean Claude Killy ski school. It was as cold as yesterday but for whatever reason it didn't feel like it and made for a nice parking lot session.
