You're right. We need some video of the Elevator (Thanks to JFSkiDan for his camera skills). Here I am making my way down it a few weeks ago - not my best form http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxDTohLFMgM

PC I'm excited for you man!! Ski some powder for the JF crew!

You do know that I was kidding when I said 90 mph right?

Yeah it flattens out at the bottom and it's smooth. I wouldn't straight run it. You may be doing 90 mph by the time you get to the bottom.

Hey all, Just back from a wonderful afternoon session at Jackson Frost. I skied with my Brother who was out on the snow for the first time in two years. We pulled up to the lot under blue skies and sunshine. We decided to make our first run down Lehigh then over to Exhibition to warm up. The snow was the famous JFBB Packed Powder / cold smoke - excellent. We headed over through the gateway to East Mt and up the East Mt Lift for a Elevator Glade to Elevator Combo. My Brother was impressed with how steep Vader is. He stayed out of the Elevator Glade since he was a bit rusty but skied Vader successfully, which BTW is very skiable...the edges had no problem on it for the most part. The right (skier's right), not as steep side, of the Elevator has bumps forming and the steeper left side is flat for the most part - definitely more challenging if you enter it from the left side. We moved on to the Challenge glade which is a leg burner if you make the short turns through the bumps / trees. We headed back over to East Mt for a run on Floyd's and back to the Elevator / E-Glade until almost closing time. Floyd's is really good right now. Overall it was another great day at JFBB. Elevator Glade.. Elevator from the top...can't see the bottom! Challenge Glade... The sun sets on the Elevator...Another Great day.

for someone who's never been to JH that video actully gave me a nice feel for the place. I liked the video shot from the base area. the singing though was another story

Nice pics...can't wait to see the rest. I love the "Whiteface towers"...gives you something interesting to read on the way up.

because smartass aka jfskidan is normally the photographer.

how was lookout below?

I know all about the kids thing... not sure what's going on tomorrow yet, probably unlikely though.

Hey...I was wondering where you've been. I haven't sen you posting much and yes PASR has two Doms.

thanks for the report...looking forward to the pics. I can't wait to get back up there.

I highly recommend and take mine to Peterson's in Blakeslee...They do a great job.

I will definitely be at JFBB tomorrow.

I say both but if you have to choose one I'd say this weekend...with some fresh snow and a decent weekend on tap you cant go wrong. Plus isnt Glen Plake in the house on Sunday...that alone should decide it for you.

This ^ - Post up a TR

Nice Robert...looking forward to your daily reports.

nice TRs gentlemen. Despite the cold, Conditions were really really nice.

You dont necessarily have to huck it. Theres a very narrow path in between the two cliffs which you can slide down. The tricky part about going that way is that you need to make a quick left turn once down to avoid a tree. lol.

Dan checking out his tracks on Elevator... Challenge Glade Dan on Vader

Made it out for an early morning session with JFSKiDan. This morning easily falls under the "epic" category. Only a few inches fell last night but that combined with the famous JFBB man made, made for sweet conditions all around. We made our first run on Janes which had a nice layer of last night's freshly fallen snow on top. It was then over to the Challenge glade which we took all the way down to the East Mt. Lift. The PE's were loving the cold smokey powder through the glade. We hit East Mt for runs through the Elevator Glade, and of course Vader. After a few runs on there we hit Mad Tree and I hit Risk It and JFSKiDan hit Floyds. It was then back over to the combination of Elevator Glade to Elevator a number of times before I had to hit the road. Dan hung out for a bit and is probably still there. We have pics which I'll post up in a few. Morning's like this though are the reason why we do this...great day.

JFskiDan is getting it done this week. Big Boulder was nice tonight as well. stashes of powder could be found all over the mt. And for the Boulder Park fans, the groomers were out doing their thing building the huge jumps.

Nice shots C1er. By the looks of the pics, looks like it was really good out there today.

There was some really nice chalky snow to be found in certain spots on the hill...props again to BB holding up nicely after the rain.

getting a ticket at a ski area sounds so funny.
