Belleayre 11/28

[Rob A]

Who's going and what is going to be open? Should be a great day and Belleayre has been blowing snow around the clock, pic of the day shows tons of snow. Anyone have an idea of what trails Belleayre is planning to have open on the 28th? With the cold temps, they should be able to open a lot of terrain by next Friday.

Will be there starting fri 11/28 and almost every day until closing.As far as what will be open i would give them a call next wed or check website.I would think with this weather that they would have quite a bit open off the highspeed and maybe a couple down below in beginner area

Belleayre's website claims they recieved 13 inches of snow of the recent storm up there, great sign for opening day! Looks like they plan to have 3 runs open off the top at least, probably more now.

Did you win another season pass?

With these conditions, I changed my plans, and will be at Belleayre this weekend. It's a good place to introduce someone to skiing if the coverage is good, and Friday should be great.

Yup Belleayre looks like a frigin winter wonderland. Go figure Not bad for $25 for a Friday after Turkey day.

That WinTer card from Windham and Hunter is also a great deal. ($129 / 4) = $32.25 per ticket. 2 tickets at Hunter and 2 Tickets at Windham.

Catskills are awesome

Good point. I bet there will be no tracks on the trails over by the Tomahawk lift.

 

[Rob A]

Yeah I'm kind of surprised they are only opening 3 runs off the top. With all the round the clock snowmaking, and now 13 inches of natural snow, you would think they would open much more up. Oh well, it's gonna be an awesome opening regardless.

So is anyone else here going? I'll be there with a group of 6 guys.

It's a rare occasion I get the joy of seeing MC actually blow snow on their lone double black diamond, they wait way too long to open their best terrain (then close it first). That pic was from 2006 I believe. I was so excited to see MC actually turn the guns on Pipeline for the first time of that season, that I took a pic of it.

I've always wanted to venture down to lower pipeline but have never had enough natural snow to do so. Something I will definitely do when I get the chance. Have you ever tried it? I'm not sure where it leads too.

I will be there, skiing solo because usually nobody can keep up. Goal is 24 runs in 5 hours.



First chair, Lift 7. Green anorak pullover, orange camelbak, black helmet, wool WWII style army surplus pants, either the blue Atomics, the grey/black Volkls, or the gray/black/green Rossis, yellow or green boots........... (see below...)

24 Runs in 5 hrs at the bell is not that hard of a feat to accomplish....unless it is your first day or you are old and fat (wink)!

you need to get at least a mid wide in there. those are some damn skinny skis.
