I was curious to how much vert they have. I was surprised to find out it's 1,200 ft! 300 more than my mole hill here. Anyone ever been there?

Never been there but definitely spent some time watching that webcam. 
Winner of most hilarious clusterf%#$ cam I've ever seen. Hours of entertainment with the skill on display in NC.

I thought that the weather channel said, the Snowshoe was thinking of opening. I'm waiting to hear back (email) from Snowshoe on, if they will be open tomorrow (Halloween). If my son is off tomorrow (will know by 5 pm). I may head down tonight and get a motel about an hour out from the resort. If not, I'm going to fire up my smoker in the morning and smoke a pork shoulder and drink somemore beer.

I hope madpatski is seeing this. I would hope that he is already on the road heading to Snowshoe or Sugar Mountain.

Strange thing about Sugar is the top elevation is at 5200 ft,way higher than any northeastern ski area.I was on Google Earth and boy is it ugly what they do to the mountain tops around there.Tons of houses and buildings on top of the ridges everywhere.

Three words: Blue Ridge Parkway.
Nothing wrong with that.
We do some pretty heinous things to valleys and lower elevation ridges. Look at Waterville, Loon, and North Conway...
