Do all the little mountains under my name fill in as I post?

Yes, as you post more you will get more mountains filled in under your name.

Hey, if I'm not booking my stay at the Loaf (we're staying with local friends) what's the best way to procure lift tickets at something other than walkup rate?

 

[marc6387]

I've been following them on facebook, mountain looks legit with snow coverage. They're blowing snow every day

 

[bangarang]

thats good, my neighbor went up a couple weeks ago and said they had something like only 40 trails open. Hopefully we get some nor' easters in the next week

 

[phannak]

Currently they have 77 of the 154 trails open.

 

[phannak]

That accounts for most of the glades being closed and the summit trails not being ready

I was there this past Saturday....super/cold and windy (typical SL conditions!)
There is virtually no base on the non-snowmaking trails. Maybe a few inches at most but its dry fluff so doesn't adhere to create a solid base. They are blowing a lot of snow---we encountered a lot of wind swept areas that were down to blue ice in spots. I'm definately hoping conditions improve in a couple weeks. That said, SL is great no matter what. 3 yrs ago most of the mtn was locked up and on wind hold in Late March----we had a great time lapping the T Bar.

SL is a huge mtn, you will be very impressed by its physical size concentrated on 1 massive peak. Its a true ski/stay destination so plenty to do once you check in and no need for a car. If you don't like the conditions, stop in for a pint at Bullwinkles and then head to the Widowmaker later on!

Thanks for the update. This is out first winter back on the east coast in a long time and are definitely excited to finally get out on the hill.
