Can confirm, lower snowball freshies are legit. Unfortunately I couldn’t see out of my goggles after a few runs

Yup...been wondering what it is there for. I'd love more camera angles on the website that show more of the mountain than just lift lines. Don't get me wrong...seeing lift lines is great too for that one very specific purpose, but it would be nice to have some shots showing more of the mountain itself.

If they could just have the sound from that camera I could judge by scratchiness whether I want to risk my life going down

You have the whole ride up to make that decision. Bail to Jester.

Speaking of which jester was a disaster today. They made a ton of whales and just let them there but they were in super awkward spots

They are "Letting the snow dry". LOL As you know this is a popular Sugarbush only method.

It's actuallyan industry wide method. If you push them out before they leach your surface will set up and not soften until spring. Some crews move the guns around constantly some make whales.

Well it’s definitely snowing. Over at mount Ellen today. Upper mountain ain’t bad at all but the run out to the base is brutal, I dunno if it’s this snow or what they made previously but it’s super sticky. So you’ll go from basically ice to snow that just stops your skis over and over again. Does a number on the legs. But the snow is coming down good so it should definitely help

Honestly a "sticky" snow is more of what we need at the moment rather than dry powder...

Oh I didn’t say it won’t be good for the mountain, just that it’s going to give me a heart attack

Skied SB (south only) yesterday and it wasn't as bad as I thought. Yes, Sunrise was a bit harrowing, but I have a great video of my one or two turns down the slide as it was icy as shit!
Steins was the ROTD as we did it a few times TTB as the snow was edgeable and fast. Ripcord was smooth, but you had to stay towards the edges for any control. The amount of snow they made on Jester and Snowball was quite impressive, dry and easy to ski. Like I said, it was a better day than I imagined. Even Sleeper skied better than many other times I'd skied it.
Hill Farmstead Edwards was the beer that went down too easy afterwards in the CRP.
If you're debating getting out, it's not terrible.

I forgot about sleeper, it was pretty decent yesterday. I was very impressed with the snow they were making on lower snowball, very nice. Eating dinner at peasant tonight and gonna ski Lincoln peak tomorrow. Mount Ellen today wasn’t bad but none of the trails that really interest me there are open at the moment. I took north star a few times today as it was kinda off the beaten path and it skied very well but there weren’t a whole lot of options on the way down.

Went with the pâté to start and it was glorious. Going with the bolognese for dinner. I try to get here at least once whenever I’m here
