Model agreement is unusually impressive, you dont get unanimous very often.
Shocking though it may be, I dont see a way for the Poconos to get screwed. Usually if there's any possible way for the Poconos to get screwed, it will, but I'm just not seeing it here. Put it down for 12" with upside to as much as 20".

me too. I'll either have my wood Wagner skis ( only ones like it you'll see there) or my Head 117 Kores ( only ones like it you'll see there)
Thinking Gore tomorrow (zero new snow but more open terrain), Belleayre Thursday and Plattekill Friday if they open, then Platty for the weekend.
My new snowblower wont be delivered until Friday so this storm is pretty much a guarantee.

Hmmm. Platt for the weekend sounds good.
Wonder if Bell will be like last year after the storm..But that was a solid 24 incher.

I will look for those. Or if snow are deep enough, I won't be able to see it!

I also have reserved Hunter for the weekend. But, if it's looking likely to be a mad house, I may....CANCEL!
Vail, come catch me for CANCELING week-of reservations! Before midnight, that is!

Thanks for reminding me . I need sheer pins . I figured I jinxed the storm , my snow blower started on the first try as did my ATV ( with plow) . My carb repair kit for my make shift tow rope ( old lawn tractor ) got here . I ordered a 400' rope a month ago . I was inspired by some youtube designs .
Looks like my first day out will be back country Poconos .......never would have believed .

ok, I won't be able to see you flying down at Mach 5, never mind the top sheet of the skis! Maybe on the lift (or lines) then...
I'm not at all distinctive in any way. I haven't decided what to wear...
I don't have powder planks. So I'll be going "leisurely" on my all-mountain planks. One of the many Volkl (Kanja) you'll see...
I still have a bit of doubt on the condition. Even 12-20", on bare grounds (or not much base), it'll still be on piste mostly. Though hopefully fluffy (for a while?)

I doubt you'd see them open Red. If they get 18" I *could* see it as a possibility but that's a still a big if. Brings me back to an old conversation with Tuna where the entire forum had to explain to him a 12" early storm was not gonna open up anything at Magic (dirt base then too). Normally it'd take a couple agreeing opinions to get someone to cave but Tuna took it with him for a dozen pages or so hahaha.
With your idea of "skiable" 6" on top of dirt at SB will be more than enough snow to get you poaching
I'm waiting on this one. You guys find the rocks, make the cat tracks, get some moguls formed and flatten this foot+ to something that'll keep my fatass up. Another small storm coming middle of next week, that's when I think I'll make my move.
