Classic! :lol:
Yep. Except for Slide, we hit all the key trails. And I had a blast carving up the butter-like corduroy too. Magic is a good mountain for intermediates as well.
You and me both. My PC is giving me fits. I'm actually posting this from my laptop so as not to anger it any more as I generate the movie files...
I echo everyone's sentiments about going to Magic. Now! I can't imagine that it gets much better and with some new snow tomorrow, forget about it. Anybody hitting any other mountain in SoVT this weekend should have their friggin' head checked.
shut up Greg and post the damn video

Nice report! You guys are still jumping out of your skin excited about the skiing yesterday, super glad you guys had such a great time at Magic. Magic mid-week powder days are a total no brainer due to low prices and no competition, I imagine you guys were getting phenomenal barely tracked lines pretty late into the day even a day after the storm.

Sorry. I was up past midnight trying to get this thing done and WMM was crapping out and won't produce the final movie final. No worries though. I brought all the data to work and come hell or high water, I'll get this thing up ASAP. It will be worth the wait.
Indeed. No untracked except on the sides of some of the low angle stuff. I'm sure it was there if we looked harder. It hardly mattered. Despite being mostly wind-packed crud/tracked out powder, we rarely felt bottom. It definitely was skiing like more snow than the 10" reported from Wednesday.
Even on the last run there were some little patches of snow that hadn't been touched, nothing to write home about but I made sure to track them out all the same..
I made some untracked turns in The Hallows. Definitely skied like more than 10"

Turns out my work PC is a bigger POS than my home PC. I'm still trying to get this vid done, but it might have to wait until tonight. I think I'm done with Windows Movie Maker...

How about some still photos to hold us off til tonight.
I didn't see anyone take out a still camera, even though I had one in my pocket all day...
Out of all the schedule juggling and cutting out of work early to ski marginal condtions in CT, I'm mad at myself for not making this trip work.
But I am very pumped that you guys had a great day. Looking forward to the vid.

this board is making progress, earlier this year the Boston Globe now mentioned in an official trail report!
when I was talking to one of the owners of Magic at the Boston Ski show this fall, I mentioned how many folks here were big fans. He had never heard of the site. I guess he has now!

Not only was this thread mentioned on the website, but it was sent out on Magic's email list. I'm a pass holder & from time to time I get emails about the goings ons at the hill. Today, I got an email & that's how I ended up peaking at this thread. I'm sure that Magic is excited to have such a good buzz about it this year.
I love to hear all the positivity about Magic. I'll be stuck in the Springfield traffic later today, but it'll all be worth it when I'm on the red chair early tomorrow. Now, I'm really looking forward to it. Thanks for the updates, guys.
