Now that we're all self-isolating at home, at least we can watch vids of being out there. I'm getting kind of addicted to these racing vids- here are some good ones: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9Sco6zLmsc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbjdhunaUjY...

I arrived at 11 thinking the morning sun would be softening the surface from last nights freeze by then but my car thermometer read 30 degrees. Under partly sunny skies Belle never got out of the 30s all day (it's supposed to go down to 15 tonight). It felt like a midwinter day. The gondi is...

Temps: mid 40s to 60 by afternoon; Conditions: variable from firm corduroy & corn early to chunder & mashed potatoes later Leaving Catamount I headed up to North Creek for the night to meet some folks at Gore. A brilliant full moon gave me hope that the night would be cold. Awoke to temps in...

Temp: upper 40s to low 50s; Conditions: spring corn My first time skiing the Cat, first time skiing the Berks. As you enter the large parking lot off Rt. 23 your view is dominated by the new, almost-completed base lodge complex that any area would be happy to have. Inside, the distressed...

I bailed on Belle when I heard the gondi was down and stayed nearby for a quick trip to a local hill. Much to my surprise they had most of the guns pumping out fresh all day long, despite being post Presidents Week- kudos to Campgaw! Attendance was subnormal for a Saturday at this usually busy...

Don't have time to write a full TR? Here's a thread for quick intel- ski area you're at, date(s), conditions/weather, crowds, etc. Especially- how are they set up for the rest of the season?

Performance 1/4 zip pullover- moisture wicking & breathable with some stretch- medium weight- chest pocket with vertical zipper- in slate gray, light gray or blue- $16.99 (Item #1348354) I bought one & liked it so much I went back & got another. The price is right.

Once again trying to beat the rain during this dreary winter I headed to Blue looking at a forecast of clouds and temp topping out at 40 with rain supposedly coming in later around 8, which I hoped would bring soft spring like conditions rebounding from the sun & warmth on Monday & Tuesday...

With rain in the forecast for today I started my weekend early- arrived to blue bird skies and mild almost spring-like temps with sweet packed powder, a carver's playground. Upper Winisook was the only bumped up trail but the middle was a swath of ice. Upper Yahoo had small wales which were...

Today was a more typical early season day than the phenomenal midwinter conditions of two weekends ago. The intervening warmth/rain & subsequent freezing wiped out the tree skiing and poacher access to an entire powder-covered mountain, though the 2" of freshies from last night helped ease the...
