Jesus. I know they’re putting in a show this season but it’s starting to work on me.
Anyone try converting an already-purchased Indy Pass to an add-on version at a specific hill?

Think I'm heading there tomorrow. They're putting the effort in, time to give them my Indy business 
Its actually pretty decent skiing all around. Not alot of people skiing under the guns but I thought the snow was nice and silky. I did wax them up last night so maybe that helped?Think I'm heading there tomorrow. They're putting the effort in, time to give them my Indy business

Some good stuff in store for this off-season too as far as snowmaking improvements. The 4th pump really helped this year.

Nice day at Black today. Snowmaking is focused on their late season run from the Alpine Cabin down. Hitting it double barrel right now, all day. Nice to hit some fresh snow making. Rest skiing reasonably well considering. Actually quite impressed with how well their snowmaking held up given their mostly southern exposure. Better than some an hour North that used to predominantly feature these guns.
Seeing them running these at Black today while their namesake was silent was a bit of a kick in the balls. But good on them!!

Damn, were you out working them yesterday? Might have been right behind you on the double if so.

Email from Black. I may buy a lift ticket tomorrow.
| We are calling it. It is time to activate our Powder Day Party plans. It is absolutely dumping at Black Mountain with no end in sight. We are looking at more than a foot of fresh over the next 24 hours. 100 % of snowmaking terrain is open, and we will let the snow accumulate on the natural trails all day and overnight, dropping the ropes first thing tomorrow morning. We expect the entire mountain to be open, including our expert hike to terrain. Other than our beginner terrain and the runouts, we will keep the groomers off the hill. Starting at noon today through closing on Monday all Powder Day Party pricing is in effect and we have just booked live music through 5 PM both days. $39 Lift Tickets - All ages $19.99 pizzas $1 Wings $5 drafts 25% off table service meals until 7 PM Call in sick, pull the kids from school and get to Black Mountain. The next 48 hours are shaping up to be all-time. |

Rumor is that Black is the 3rd highest retail seller in the world for Veuve Clicquot champagne. WTF 
The father of one of my daughters classmates showed up to a recent event with a blown knee. Did it skiing at Black. I jokingly asked if he had too much Veuve at the cabin. He responded maybe......
I dont drink when I ski anymore..except when im at black!

I would bring my your rock skis if you plan to venture off the snowmaking routes. They were completely cooked out Thursday. Even if they do get a foot, won't really base up anything with decent pitch.
