1/7

Absolutely jammed here today. Cars parked across the road and C lift and E lift inexplicably not running.

Wow just wow unbelievable.  How much new snow at Elk?

[Jn959]

Maybe 8”. The few trails that are open are decent. The lift situation is awful.

How long were lift lines and I bet people were poaching closed runs.

20 mins by the lodge. Slightly less at the quad. Lots of poaching.

How much snow did they get up there. I’m kinda jealous

20 minute wait isn’t bad compared to Blue’s today.

I guess I’m spoiled as an Elk local. If they had 2 more lifts going it wouldn’t have been bad

I'm pretty sure it was 4-5" total.  2-3 overnight. Another 2-3 during the day Sunday. At least at the base elevation where I had a couple clean surfaces to see it on before the kids trashed it. Was enough that Delaware was friggin gorgeous in the morning before it got too skied over.

They've been having maintenance issues nearly every weekend on either B or C. Seems like each time one gets fixed the other goes down. Opening weekend, news years weekend and again this weekend at least. Guess those 60 year old lifts have a lifespan, go figure.

You guys went pretty far north today. Did you stop anywhere or is that a pretty easy round trip?

We flew up to Sydney, NY for some cheap aviation fuel and I got a coffee from the FBO.

You should have buzzed by Greek Peak while you were in the neighborhood.

I was just along for the ride and sadly Greek Peak was not near the magenta line.
