Bromley 2.22.14

[gmcunni]

Hoped for sunny skies to soften the snow, it didn't happen, but not a bad day overall.


after the rain and the overnight freeze the trees were coated with thick ice. top half of the mountain was crispy and hard. groomers did a decent job but it was like skiing on ice cubes. lower mountain was mostly soft until 3:00 or so as the sun (what little there was) weakened.

high speed quad started the day on hold but opened before lunch. lines were 5-8 minutes, not bad considering it was still pres week.

bumps on east side looked good but didn't hit them.

Those bumps do look really good. Doesn't appear to be much ice in the troughs at all.

I really need to get to Bromley one of these days. It, Middlebury Snow Bowl and Black Mountain of Maine I believe are the only operating 1000+ vert mountains in Northern New England that I've never skied.

Not bad lines considering. My wife and I keep saying we re going to head over there.

i think bromley gets overlooked a lot with regard to bumps.

Looks nice, I like Bromley's vibe. Strangely, I have skied Bromley and Magic, but not Stratton and Mt. Snow in So. Vermont.

What's the app that tracks the runs?

alpinereplay. links in my sig go to my session stats, if you want to see more details about what the app shows.

Looks pretty nice. I'm thinking of maybe hitting Bromley in a couple weeks for some spring skiing. Only been there once but would like to return.

I love Bromley. Not too big but enough for one day or so. Great vibe as well. I've made it a tradition to ski there on my birthday every year.

5-8 minute lines sounds pretty good for them. I remember MLK days in years past where the quad was ski on. Good for them!

I don't know if it's the contrast or settings but the bumps look awe-some
