Warrensburg seems like a pretty cool little town. The super 8 we're staying at is cool. It's a basically a giant log cabin with hotel rooms. I'll stay here again. The mountain isn't far. North Creek seems sparse on lodging.

A diner. Lol

I came in last night, have the whole family with me so the skiing for me was limited to Saturday only. We are currently enjoying some fine local Adirondack cuisine though

Fun day. Gore is a cool place. Reminds me of Killington in that your basically skiing different mountains. They're just stacked up on top of one another. Dan and I started off on the gondi early on which offers a legit 1700 of vert. After meeting up with guitar73 and Vicki from the ski diva (who is a local) we hit the high peaks chair. Skied some blues then I took an epic fall on hullabaloo when I hit what appeared to be an icy cliff. Later we hit lies (rumor was closed) which is a pretty nicely pitched trail. Slippery as hell except for the sides. We pretty much skied the entire mountain. Skied a bunch on straight brook and off the Gondola. Sagamore off the burnt Ridge quad was probably the run of the day. Like the Wilmington trail at WF. Snow was OK. Better in the morning. Lots of ice by days end. Lies was straight up survival. Unfortunately the trees were closed. Overall Gore is awesome. Not skiing tomorrow but I'll be back for sure. Base High peaks chair Lies

Made it to Warrensburg in record time. The time machine got us here in 3 hours and 50 with one stop for gas. It's snowing in the adk with 4 inches expected in the mountain. Meeting guitar73, tinymoose and Dan the man. Should be fun...
-
Agreed. The one 2 years ago was pretty good.

Reading this while in the shitter made this extra funny. Lol.

Give them a call. Their website isn't the most user friendly.

Pharoah and cliff hanger are fun. Everything else is meh. From a strictly trail skiing perspective, Elk and blue destroy CB. Hell even montage. I'd rather ski the north face all day long (not even touch the upper mountain) over Camelback. Paradise at Blue is better cruiser than Nile. CBs "front four" are flat after the first head wall. Definitely no razors, challenge or main street. CB is over rated. C back is a glorified Shawnee.

Glad to enjoy a few beers with you guys afterwards.

Holy shit. Absolutely awesome conditions here. I skied blue MLK night 2 years ago and it was icy hell. Tonight is amazing. Soft man made pretty much everywhere. The bumps on nightmare are skiing great. Not much in the way of crowds. Great night of skiing for sure
-
On my way to blue now. Hopefully the snow is still nice
-
Would love to but will be at Gore next Saturday.
-
Shawnee is cool. A little funner than boulder but out of Blue's / montage league. I'm def down for a pasr day there.

Great. Another WMMR day. -
I think people stopped saying "got some action" after Poison stopped being cool.
-
Hmmm. It's my only chance to ski until like next Wednesday so I might have to put up with the crowds. Maybe head up after 7 or so.
-
I was thinking about blue Friday night. Is it gonna be a shit show?
-
CNN has apparently skied every run in the entire world and compiled a list. Unless your name is Johnny Law I didn't think that was possible. ;-) http://www.cnn.com/2014/01/13/travel/worlds-best-ski-runs/index.html?c=&page=0

One might say that you're an expert at detecting dorks too.

Thank you. I got tired of looking after one page.
-
Awesome. thanks!
-
No, it'll never be as busy as Blue. The east mountain chair is your best bet. You'll definitely find lines everywhere else on the mountain but nothing as crazy as Blue. Stick to the east chair and the quad.
-
Haha. Not sure you'd want that, that is unless I can get the hookup the wax you and Jeff are using.
