  1. Mainly because the chances of skiing Cloudspin, Empire, Lookout Below etc are greater later in the season with accumulated snowfall.
  2. Power outage. Only lift running right now is the face lift servicing the lower mountain.
  3. I don't know that I'd come here earlier than late Feb / March to be honest.
  4. It's why we're the best ski site on the internet
  5. Went to the summit, skyward to lower cloudspin, complete with chowder and even some titty sparkles. Cloudspin is a fucking gem of a run. Was always closed whenever I've been here.
  6. Hope you guys have a great time. Post pics
  7. First fast run off little WF down approach to mountain run back to the gondi. 2600 vertical feet of soft cord and amazing views. Had to stop for a pic
  8. Thanks. About 5 and a half hours. On the gondi. Were about 100 people in front of me. Car said 0 but feels much warmer. Conditions should be similar to yesterday. In the words of a certain singer. It's a beautiful day.
  9. Wyatt's was awesome. I'll be sure to visit them again. The plan is to ski all day today and leave lake Placid. Not sure if I'm staying somewhere tonight on going all the way home. Living that drifter life today. I have the Empire ski card and with today's ticket I break even on it (maybe a little better). I need more days are either WF, Gore or Belle to make it a great deal so I'm trying to figure out when and where at this point. Worst case it's Belle a few days. We'll see.
  10. Another bluebird day with no wind on tap. -2 right now but temps increasing quickly. Should be in the 20s by noon or so. Should be fun!
  11. Schools back home have a 2 hr delay. Nothing like getting that 5am call to wake you up then not being able to go back to sleep.
  12. Go somewhere else. See someplace new
  13. At a place called Wyatt's Tex Mex. The smell lured me in. May regret it later
  14. I'm done. Went just short of bell to bell; the legs were done. Finished with a 3000 plus vert Parons run to mid mountain to the base. Great ski day today.
  15. Not many people here at all. Gore guy on the gondi was complaining about crowds here. I told him that he should ski PA if he wants to experience real crowds. Dude seemed pretty clueless
  16. I did. BLT with chips. Back out. Rode the gondi and skied empire again. Getting boney so that was probably the last go on it for this trip. Great run though. Riding the lookout triple for some long cruising action on Wilmington. My legs are starting to feel it. Not leaving though. Too fucking good out here.
  17. Only glades open are cloudsplitter (pic) skied them before but not feelin' it. Opted to stay on Empire.
  18. @tarponhead rope dropped on upper empire. A bit thin in spots but lots of fun. Narrow as hell
  19. Tough guy on the gondi was going on about how gore is so much better. Then goes on to admit that today is fantastic and he's glad he's here. Gore is comparable to S. VT. WF is on a whole different level. IMO
