major hats off to stratton for their bang up resurfacing and grooming job. today was really a pleasure as far as skiing groomers go. and brand new ungroomed whales on grizzly bear and bear down made for some fun skiing. left gf's apt at 3:45, breakfast in manchester at 7:45, hit stratton sun bowl lot at 8:10, skied from 8:30-2:30, 34k vertical, and just walked in to my place.

this shower and chinese food and joint are going to rule.

Belleayre surprised me yesterday...not the stupid big crowds but the fine snow surfaces on many trails most notably the bumps on Yahoo and Onteora. Both had tons of fresh manmade and they're letting the bumps ski in, no more grooming. Seneca also had nice snow on it. Great day!

Was it packed? We did Elk this weekend instead of the Cats to beat the crowds, but those conditions sound sweet...

Packed is an understatement! But I stayed off the HSQ and rode lift 7 and Tomahawk all day.

The skiing made the slow lift rides well worth it.

Glad to hear it. Shame about this rain.

I have to hand it to all of you on here that have double digit days. Many got after the powder days in December as well as early season opportunities, yet keep charging away in the up and down weather back east in January - that is dedication at its finest.

:beer: here is to a better February and onward.

And now that the holiday nonsense is over we can really get down to business.
