Seriously, WTF is with this Weather?

[tarponhead]

WF picked up 3". -2F in town now. They are blowing on the mountain run pod trying to get that open. As expected, little WF is where all the action is. Only Victoria (lower) on main summit is open

[Ride Delaware ?]

Picked up 3-6" depending on elevation here. Not much wind. Currently -8 at the top. Bottom lift is on maintenance delay, so I'm at the top hanging out until it's cleared.

Shawnee opening wednesday. Could be a backup plan if blue doesn't open

You gonna pay $50

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Hell no, I'm hoping only like 2 trails are open and its $25. I'm assuming elk is charging full price for Wednesday

They should have a lot more terrain open then that. I assume regular midweek pricing whatever that is.

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Then no, I will not be going. Fingers crossed for blue

 

What about Jack Frost weekday prices.

 

Only $48

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Nope

Only $23 more just skip wawa and cigs that day and you're good.

[RidgeRacer]

Blue will be open on Wednesday. Nothing official just my prediction. Looked really good when I drove past this morning.

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

If I skip wawa, I can't eat. If I don't eat, I won't have energy and my reflexes will be slow. If my reflexes are slow, I could hit a tree and die. Dying is bad. Thus, it could be argued that skipping wawa is a death sentence

Eat food from your house.

Wouldn't they have announced that already. Nah I'm thinking Thursday or Friday

[Kyle]

Gonna be cold enough for bear creek to open soon.

 

Lol good joke

-1 at the mountain for 1st trax with about 5" of new powder and foot deep drifts. No wind, overcast. Skied the sterling lift line t2b as well as a few other trails that were open. No crowds or waiting in line = 7 morning laps. Might go out again after lunch.

They were blowing on the base of Madonna, I expect to see that open in the next few days.

love smuggs

It's gonna go colder than predicted tonight. Low single digits.

[RidgeRacer]

Nope

 

Frost was good over the weekend. If I were you and needed a place to ski on Wednesday I would go there and save the gas $$ for when Elk is 100%. Frost opened Demattes and will probably more open by Wed. Plus you'll get a little tree action. Just my 2 cents. 

It's gonna go colder than predicted tonight. Low single digits.

 

It was a snowmaking storm when I drove past tonight on the way home from work. Somebody call Ahab cause the whales were out on Blue Mt.

A GSS sighting on Vista in the rain this weekend. Stay clear of his blow hole!

Is that a blue whale?

Been surfing NWS and saw a weather alert for northern PA. I got stoked until I read it. It was a windchill advisory. Bwaahahahahahaaaa!!!

Seriously, at the end of the alert they recommend wearing hats and gloves!!!!!!

[moe ghoul]

Advanced coldness this morning, boot heaters and hand warmers FTW. -8 in the lot, blue bird, no lines, dry powder.

-8 is one reason why my ski trips have been west of the Mississippi 5 of the last 6 years.

It's typically colder at Jackson hole than northern Vermont. I go out west for the terrain and snow.

Typically when its -10F at JH, it's +20F at the top of the Gondy.

-8 in Jackson hole, Utah, Colorado etc feels much different than - 8 in Vermont. I too go out west for terrain and snow but it also feels nicer due to the drier air.
