Was there yesterday. Early morning groomed was very good till skied off, still not bad the rest of the day given lack of natural snow. Bumps galore on Tunkhannock! Because of the hard snow (not ice), varying shapes and closeness they were difficult for me. Not icy just not soft enough to bash and pivot, probably just fine for the zipper liners, i'm not that good. I usually do better on Mohawk, sadly allot of it's bumps were plowed down with some remaining at the top and midsection. For me with the given conditions Tioga Spur bumps were fun! Of the groomers Slalom skied the best. Overall Elk was firm hardpack, definitely not granular ice pellets, no death cookies and only a few small trash can lid size ice patches to be found if you really looked for them.Elk Friday,should soften up, looking for some decent bumps, anyone have an update?
Voucher burning tour of VT. Starting at Burke Sat and then heading north. Jay, Smuggs x 2, MRG, Stowe, Sugarbush in no particular order. Plan on ending the week at Kmart to purchase spring pass and use for the weekend. May call an audible and head south during the week if some substantial snow hits.

Will keep my eyes peeled!
I now think I have decided on going to Loon tomorrow. Hopefully South Peak will remain uncrowded.

You're funny.
Greek Peak on Sat. 3/8/14.
DEMO DAY!!!
Tempting, how are Greek's current conditions compared to Elk? Gotta factor that in since i'm looking at a 2h15m drive to get to Elk vs. 3h19m to Greek Peak.Staying home yet again, Greek Peak, demo day Saturday, Blizzard and Volkl reps will be there, can't wait to demo some skis. I'm interested in the Blizzard Brahma.
Elk was great this morning and awesome in the afternoon!〽❄❅;830512 said:Tempting, how are Greek's current conditions compared to Elk? Gotta factor that in since i'm looking at a 2h15m drive to get to Elk vs. 3h19m to Greek Peak.
