JimG why don't you ski Plattekill?

I do when the snow levels are good. I love Platty but never get a season pass there because I can't justify a season pass at a ski area open only 3 days a week.

That said, I'm always happy to pay for a day ticket there when powder is available. Being open only 3 days a week keeps conditions fresh when there is snow. Kind of feel the same about Pico...I usually ski at K but love Pico when snow is good.

Got in days 8 and 9 this weekend. I am normally any where from 16 to 20 days by now. Back trouble is making this season slow for me.

13 days so far at Sugarbush in what is starting out as not a very good season to date. There have been 3-5 days where I have been at my place at the mountain and not even bothered to ski due to extreme cold temperatures. The mountain is about 100" behind the YTD snowfall compared to last year.

How was the 'tash today?

Pleasantly surprised. They were blasting snow on Bear Peak so more should be open there soon. Illusion was Good, Wandering Skis, not so much but skiable. Trillium was fantastic, it’s just such a bitch to get to I only did one run there. Morning Star was good too. Getting back to Attitash from Bear Peak was treacherous. Don’t know how they will keep the connection back open without some help from Mother Nature. On the Attitash side, they just started blowing snow on Lower Cathedral when I was leaving. There wasn’t a lot open but the conditions were OK. I stayed away from the steeper runs, they looked pretty scetchy from the chair and as I was skiing alone, didn’t want to chance it. Spillway was great. (Race League day).
