Magic is Ripe

Actually more of a skate/climb to get to the west side IMHO. More of the traffic seems to head to the east.

Question for those that have been there recently. As I understand it, Redline is down so only Blackline is running. How easy (or difficult) is it to get from there to the east side of the mountain (to ski Goniff, TZ, or Redline)?

Very Easy

Maybe Wednesday. Maybe.

That's my plan as well.

Thanks everyone. Is the Black chair as wind-resistant as the Red chair?

Sounds like they think it's pretty wind resistant:

It has been very, very windy so it is tough to judge how much we really received. The wind will continue to be strong today, but we are confident the Black Lift will be running to the summit all day.

Just got back. (OK, Just got back, drank three tequillas, made/ate dinner, now I'm posting.)

Black chair is lower in the trees than the Red. It was windy up there today, but the ride up was comfy.

The skiing in the morning was awesome everywhere. There was some scouring by the afternoon, but still really good. Contrary to posts on other forums, I found many untracked stashes.

They have a killer base and there are still plenty of goods to be had. With this next storm, it's be wicked killah' awesome. GO WEDNESDAY!!!

There will be plenty. I'm a pro at getting seconds. Pow bumps anyone?

Looking forward to skiing Magic with the current conditions. I think Greg will be able to talk me into some shite as usual.

I played 'sick' on friday last week. If I do it again tomorrow eyebrows may rise at work. That said Im considering it. This thread is dangerous for me.
