Right where I want to be
Good thread idea. I was thinking the same sort of thing.

I was amazed at the lack of lines at Pats Peak today. A few times we MAY have waited for 1 minute. I was expecting the worst, and was really pleased. Pats is definitely a small mountain, but the lack of lines might be appealing to some. I will probably head back tomorrow.

Last night was dead there as well. Roads suck right now. Wife just drove back from Concord and said there were vehicles off the road everywhere. Another big accident at the Junction of 89 and 202/9.

That line could probably be seen from space.

+1; two weeks ago the Loon gondola was above a 20 minute wait; and everything else was above a 10 minute wait for much of the day on Saturday of superbowl weekend with the exception of east basin double which was still a traffic jam to get on but a fair 15 chair wait. Was already a 15 chair line on the Kanc at 8:15 am. I couldn't imagine what it was today.

Anyone have any idea what Black NH will be like tomorrow for lines? I was thinking of using a voucher I have there, but realizing it may not be as low key as I was thinking.

High winds could make those lift lines ugly tomorrow. Anyone have any insight?

Yes. Stick to the magic carpets. I'm pretty sure those bad boys run no matter what kind of wind is blowing!

You're welcome.

Crotched Mt.: Glades, Bumps, 850' vertical and less than 2 minutes on the Rocket (their HSQ)

Crotched has a little more than 900' and the quad ride is about 3 1/2 minutes but those are minor details. Snow was great on Friday 2/14, glades are in, still hit a few rocks but hit 7 different glades and had a blast. Great bumps under the Rocket and Upper Park. UFO was also nicely bumped but it looks like they groomed it last night. I usually use the singles line and never more than a 10 chair wait.

No lines at Crotched and all the out of bounds and unmarked areas are loaded. A solid 2' with 4-6' drifts

Ragged was amazing today, 100% open and their glades were unbelievable. Lines for the six pack were mwybe 6-7 minutes long but all the other lifts were ski on. The new glade, Abyss was AMAZING

Was at Berkshire East... As the picture above shows, the liftline for the remaining summit chair got pretty long, but I was going via the singles line and everybody was friendly, so it didn't seem that bad. A lunch break, a few laps on the quad and a hot chocolate break... It's not like I waited in the line all that many times.

Once they got both summit chairs going it was just ski-on.
