PSUFrankenstein Posted February 27, 2021 Report Posted February 27, 2021 Awesome have fun and post pics. Looks like Greek Peak has pretty much everything open. I ate lunch at tracks pub or whatever at the base there. Great beer selection, service and food was good. 2

Pics don't really show that it's actually pretty steep (I would compare it to White Lightning at Montage, but longer and with a runout) 1
RidgeRacer Posted February 28, 2021 Author Report Posted February 28, 2021 Zeus, hercules and some trees. Probably skiing until they close at 5 5

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 1, 2021 Report Posted March 1, 2021 I’m guessing Ridge is in lake placid now. Looks like it’s gonna snow at whiteface tomorrow.

RidgeRacer Posted March 1, 2021 Author Report Posted March 1, 2021 I’m guessing Ridge is in lake placid now. Looks like it’s gonna snow at whiteface tomorrow. Arrived not too long ago. Took just over 4 hours to get here from greek peak. About 4.5 with a few stops. The Wendy's Asiago chicken ranch whatever on a pretzel bun is the fuckin bomb btw.Today was awesome. Greek peak is a freaking treat. I can't believe this was my first time skiing it. Worth 2 hours from the Poconos and will be back.. There's a crap ton of tree skiing and I wasn't expecting the old school vibe. It was busy but never waited more than 2 minutes for a lift. Was really impressed with some of the steeper pitches there. Stoked for the main event tomorrow however. Time to check the weather. 6 1

RidgeRacer Posted March 1, 2021 Author Report Posted March 1, 2021 Strange weather. cloudy this morning and kinda warm - upper 30s. Temps are gonna drop it like it's hot however with a low of negative 4 overnight tonight. With the temp drop should come some snow which is supposed to start around 1pm... nothing crazy...1 to 3 inches or so. As for the skiing... looking like cloudspin is on tap today. Over on lookout mountain Wilmington and maybe sugar valley are a go but hoyts and lookout below are likely not happening. Upper empire is listed as closed but we'll see if they drop the ropes. Should be minimal in the way of crowds which could make for a pretty great day. More to come... 5 1
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 1, 2021 Report Posted March 1, 2021 Enjoy the mild weather today and dress warm tomorrow. Have fun Ridge and keep the updates coming!!! 2
