You do nice work. I've been meaning to learn how to do flash stuff, never seem to have the time though...

Hunter is finally blowing snow again, Windham has the guns blasting, and Bell and Plattekill as well.

 

[adamti91]

Couple of inches at Plattekill and Belleyare... new trails and lifts open at Belleayre and Windham (both mountains have all lifts runnin, in addition to Plattekill), and the Hunter website is still down. I'm headed up to Bell right now and Plattekill tomorrow...

Sunday at Belleayre

Sunday was an epic day at Belleayre. I wrote about it here, plus photos and a video.

Next weekend is gonna be crowded. Rode up with an instructor that said he was booked starting Friday through the entire week. Lots of people who have been waiting for snow are gonna catch on, especially with some probable snow heading into NJ.

(sorry mods - Duplicate post - also in trip reports but thought it needed to be here too)

Hunter was pretty sweet this weekend too...
Rode a ton on Minya and Eastside on Sunday in the sun...

Looking forward to the crowds this weekend..
Should be a blast watching the mayhem....

Great attitude. I think I'll try it. :beer:

I am headed to New Mexico this weekend so it is sure to dump in the Skills. A few more inches at the kill and the trees are ready.

Forecast calling for 18-36" in the Catskills tonight through tomorrow.

As in 3 feet?

What about the rest of the week?

Dunno, I'll be out skiing.

Considering this season so far, 1 1/2 to 3 feet isn't enough?

P-kill is going to go off tomorrow. To all who get some - please take a few pictures.

Only supposed to get six inches tonight, then a lot more on Wednesday. I bet the Powder Daize won't be until Thursday. Anyone got better info?

powder daize canceled

 

[ajl50]

Thursday it is...
Should be sick. With the sheltered east facing slopes of p-kill there should be much waist deep powder. KILL IT and take pictures. No trip reports allowed without pictures.
