I used to ski half of Hellgate at Hunter ..then walk in the mud to the F lift just to get early turns in...

I remember a Fall day years ago riding F lift holding my skis and then running off the lift at the top.

So who's blowin?
K, SR and ?
The webcam at Wildcat looks like they could be on Lynx but it could also be a smudge on the camera...
Sugar Mountain Resort received a dusting of snow overnight, an opening date has not been determined. If possible, we expect to open on Sunday.Snowmaking is in progress as temperatures allow.

Fingers crossed for K on Sunday! Though I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being Monday.

SR is already making snow TTB. I'm hoping that by next weekend with the cold temps at the end of next week that SR can get true TTB skiing, that would be excellent.

I just checked the Wildcat webcam too and it looks like they might be blowing at the very top of Lynx? Not quite sure.

It’s snow “making”

Blowing is what a cheap hooker does

Get yer wording and vocabulary correct.

hasn't killington already made BOGOs available by now in past seasons? i like using the bogos for my earliest season days instead of using much more valuable ikon days

The early season 2 for 1 deal we have run in the past has been replaced by more convenient online tickets—visit the Killington E-Ticket Store to purchase in advance for the best pricing.

They closed the multiple email address players down.

Looks like mount snow has awaken their snowmaking on north face. I'd assume they are looking for a Friday opening. Hopefully they will have too to bottom with no walking required!
