mbike-ski

Had a fun family gp weekend, the first in at least 3 year with the bad winters and the oldest in grad school. saturday was nice (and cold) with a fresh kote of grabby snow, squalls and the mountain to ourselves and about 6,500 spartan racers. We ran into more pa folks then locals for sure, including justo's friend Tyler and a BMR family. Nearby song mountain was offering $10 tix for gp refugees. limited terrain - basically karyiatis, elysian/stoic/christies and iliad - but what was open was nice with some wales blown overnight to noodle around on for junior. no park setup which seems odd to draw out the jib honks and kiddies. it would be easy to throw a few features on whatever the little offshoot of stoic is called!? the snow got better and faster as the day went on and the fresh snow got ski'd into the base below. It was fun to watch and cheer the racers on, we heard nothing but good feedback on the event other than the cold. left around 2:30 to hit micro breweries hopshire farms and cortland beer with my daughters boyfriend while the girls did the spa. then back to trax bar at gp lodge later for a fun cover band. sunday cold and clear, some high quality gunpow on upper iliad. decent snow, i ski'd tele most of the day to make the 3 ways down a bit more interesting until the legs gave out. a few bare spots and rocks were starting to poke through. swapped skis and did some afternoon karyiatis cruisers with non-skiing younger daughter who joined us for a few obligatory runs. sunday night they groomed the wales into a fine corduroy carpet perfect for mixing in short radius and high speed big gs turns monday morning, especially after the sun broke the flat light around 10:30. temps rose from low 20's into the 30's quickly and we left around 1:00 when the snow started to get a little sticky. all in all a good weekend, good snow on limited terrain, gonna need some real snow to last much longer! At 8 days, that will likely be it for me at greek until next year unless they get a decent dump Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Had planned on "sleeping in" and skiing blue with you shitheads but the damn dog [emoji190] started barking and wanted to go out at 4:30 so I packed up the truck and headed to Greek. They got 18" or so since last weekend so got my tree jones on.. 12 tree and bump runs before lunch and beers with the famous azone and nyskiblog cornhead. Trees were sweet! Headed up the hill on the way home to get my xc on, great coverage, a bit slow but not rotten sticky Gotta love xc in a t! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yea conditions this morning were "variable" to say the least, worst on challenge, best on switchback. I think they were doing avy control on widowmaker so didn't make it over there. We have a young priest at our church and we talk about skiing / riding (he's a boarder) all the time and finally got together this morning. He was ripping right along! He even brought his go pro for a few shots! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
