Anyone know if black will be running tomorrow at magic?

It was running when I was there Pres weekend, and is usually listed in the "will operate if the crowds dictate" category.... That seemed to be the day I was there when the line for the Red reached maybe 5 minutes tops.....

I booked a room in the Catskills already. I could make the 2.5 hr drive to Magic but the circumstances would have to be extreme. Like if everywhere in the Cats has no power, or something.

At hunter waiting. Power still out. No real communication from the mountain. Guess they're hoping people will stay all day and drink overpriced beer. Looks like all of the cats are out. Guess there is such a thing as too much snow?

So I guess the question for all us desk jockeys contemplating getting up at four a.m. tomorrow is - how long is the power out for?

Stratton is awesome today! Finding silky bottomless turns all over the mountain. Snowing very heavily right now. Winds not much of an issue.

I just checked the cam up there. Looks like it's coming down really good! Enjoy!

Snowfall totals are far exceeding many expectations...Albany area and up through Glens Falls already closing in on a foot... Not so good for driving up to VT. Most Fridays I'd be leaving NJ in about 30 minutes.

30 should be OK in the AM. Depends on what time it winds down. 30 can be kinda "meh" during a storm. But the state usually gets after it once the flakes stop falling. My wife and I will probably be up tonight. We take 30 from Bratt to the covered bridge just before Maple Valley. I can let you know how that section is.

Elk is open & reporting 8"-12", winds are making it difficult to measure.
