Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted January 1, 2023 Report Share Posted January 1, 2023 Wound up at Bolton on 30th and B.East today. No lines and a decent amount open at both with good conditions. Some bare spots on the nautral snow trails at Bolton but nice of them to leave those trails open with thin cover warnings. Gonna take Sun and Mon off as conditions will be much worse. See what looks good next weekend. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 West was not great on Sat. They had 3 full runs "open". A black to blue open only to racers A green to blue with a narrow steep fact that was ice A green that was loose granular over frozen granular and was packed with people it was way too challenging for, falling down and skiing into one another. Still doing 6 runs was a real nice way to break up the drive to N.VT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) We picked a good day to go to Jay with the tram open this weekend for the first time of the year about 2/3 of the non-glade terrain open. Unfortunately there was a big ice patch on the top of Ullr and I had a nasty fall on it on my third run, bruising my leg badly enough that it was the end of my ski day. The girls skied a bit more without me. Did get a nice pic of them at the top after our first ride up the tram.

Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) Spent Sunday PM back at the hotel in bed taking ibuprofen and icing my leg. Woke up Mon AM and initially stood up and thought the leg felt good enough to ski, but within the first dozen steps realized that clearly was not the case. If I were at the top of a run and it were a necessity to get down, sure I could pull it off - as I had after my fall the day before. But it was foolhardy to go out for a day when I would be barely skiing, risking another fall, and delaying my recovery perhaps making for less skiing on future weekends. On our prior trips to N.VT the girls had wanted to tour the VT Teddy Bear🧸 Company Factory, but the timing had never worked out with their first tour being at 11 and last at 3 = prime ski time. We had a nice leisurely Hampton Inn breakfast in St Albans and hit that on the way home instead, making for an enjoyable long weekend for them. Fortunately the leg I hurt was the left one and so did not interfere with my driving. Edited January 17, 2023 by Ski2Live Live2Ski 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As temps start trending colder here I'm hoping to actually put this pass to use. I need to at least get some uphill days at Shawnee soon.

trackbiker Posted January 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 Used my Indy Pass at Montage on Saturday. Conditions were firm but carveable. No lift lines at all and crew picking up trash under the lifts. Looking at Greek Peak next weekend. It looks like they got all snow out of this precipitation today. I'll be in Maine the following week. Hope to hit Saddleback, Abram, Black of Maine and possibly Black of NH if conditions are good. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought about one of those two for Wednesday before I realized that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
