Hard lockdown in Canada: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/covid-19-ontario-december-21-lockdown-orders-1.5849760 If you bought an Ikon pass and named Blue Mountain ON as your adventure assurance resort, you're looking at a 25% rebate. Good call on my part.

Yes, Ski Vermont 4-packs are coming back, **but**, mid-week only: https://skivermont.com/ski-vermont-4-pass-information

After announcing otherwise, Elk decides to be open 7 days/week. Good news, now just need them to change their mind on tree skiing. From elkskier.com: This just in… Elk Mountain will be open 7 days a week for the coming season. Sunday through Thursday 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Friday and...

https://twitter.com/ElkMountainSki/status/1296490256930426880 I have absolutely no inside information on this. Just intrigued that Elk felt they had to deny something.

Powderhorn in CO slashes their prices: https://powderhorn.com/plan-purchase/purchase/season-passes.html This is a great deal. Powderhorn is a quality midsize CO mountain. Although it's not specified, there should be a significant number of partner resorts. Note that Ragged in NH is included...

We will be up at Killington on Sunday. Any suggestions for a nice place to watch the big game? Looking for good TVs, relaxed and friendly atmosphere, decent food and drink, reasonable price. I know about Moguls, which is sort of an obvious choice. Any other ideas?

From the NWS: https://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/predictions/30day/ Precipitation is supposed to be below average. But I don't believe this takes into account lake-effect. So maybe not so bad on the snowfall side as well. Any weather-geek comments?

Big tease on twitter: https://twitter.com/holidayvalley/status/1191394032884338693 These people don't normally do much on Twitter.

I have never been to any of these close-to-Syracuse areas. I am looking for interesting terrain for an advanced skier: glades (on or off map), ungroomed terrain, and some steepness. Which is best for that? BTW, please don't tell me to go to Greek Peak or Snow Ridge. I have been to both...

There are mixed signals on the Freedom Pass. The Eastern areas (Magic, Plattekill, Bolton, Black) prominently mention that season passholders get the Freedom Pass. Greek Peak says that they are joining the program. However, out West, it's a differently story. If you go to the Purgatory...

AlpineZone seems to specialize in going dead at random times. Rather unusual for the Internet in 2019. What happens?

Interesting new combination: http://www.powderhorn.com/there-are-great-things-ahead-powderhorn-mountain-resort So Ragged, Wisp, Wintergreen WV and Powderhorn are under the same management, if not ownership. Not sure where it all leads because there's nothing here that could be considered a...

Wow, this thing has been totally screwed up for a week or so. What's been happening??

Sure looks like the Mt. Bohemia loophole has been closed. There's no mention of the Freedom Pass on Mt. Bohemia's season pass page: http://www.mtbohemia.com/season-passes/ Also, Bolton's list of the Freedom Pass ski areas no longer includes Mt B...
