Unless Camelback truly makes it to May I will be ending my Skison with a first ever trip to Blackcomb (Whistler will be closed) with my daughter who will have just finished her finals in BC on April 23-25

That will be a great way to end the season. I'm surprised Whistler will be closed that early. Blackcomb is awesome and the glacier area there is pretty sick. Spanky's Ladder into Diamond Bowl is one of my favorite runs of my ski life. Other than Blue I think I have skied there more than any other area.

Nice will be sure to check that out - with this being perhaps my last year on Epic, having 50% off buddy passes for her, and only having to fly one of us there - it seemed the perfect time to check that place out - as well as being a far better bet snow wise this year than going to CO as I more often do

Will be my first time skiing outside US

It will be easy to have a great time there. Even if the weather and snow is crap, 5,000'+ vert of skiing is pretty wild. Your trip is far away, but if the peak-2-peak tram is still running you should take it for the experience.

And you should just as well wait for one of the cars with the glass bottom so you can get the full perspective...

Not sure where to put this, so this thread seemed appropriate. Ski The East is moving distribution to PA, might bring some eyeballs into the PA ski scene.

As much as people hate all the warehouses going up, at least we got one cool company.

Bethlehem almost got Stone Brewing in ~2012 but they decided on RVA. That was the first time I heard of the area being the prime location for east coast distribution.

Kmart was the original resort for trail

inflation and later others followed suit. Stowe went from 48 runs to over 100 without even cutting a single tree.

Got mine as well, I was disappointed last year thinking I was getting one but no bueno. I called and they said it was because I didn’t have a full access pass the previous year 🫤

Thinking snow but have to make it through Summer hell first.
