Yellow license plate crew finding the stashes!
LOL...a secret stash that is marked on the trail maps! Very sneaky!
Well that is a different perspective. It did not come off that way. Sounded like a secret stash post.You guys are being too hard on Duncan. I think his point was that no one had any expectations of getting into the woods this weekend or if they did - it being any good. He found some woods that skied well and no one else was in there - good for him.
I was at Bolton Valley 2 yrs ago on a bitterly cold (like -10 at the base cold) day. It was rock hard all over and not skiing that great. I dropped into one of the glades runs (Adam's Paradise, I think) and it was really good. No one was skiing the woods that day so it really felt like I "discovered" something that day even though it was marked trail.
Thanks, yeah this is exactly what I meant. I didn't even see anyone on Exterminator let alone in the woods. So it really felt like a hidden treasure. Little tongue in cheek to say it's a "secret". I post here to let people know how it is, just trying to help since that's why I read here anyways. The snow report is not exactly an unbiased opinion so this is nice to see "on the ground" reporting. I highly recommend checking out the stash there, it was fun!You guys are being too hard on Duncan.

Hah...hard to tell sometimes just reading something without having verbal tones and facial expressions.
I agree about the snow-report. Years ago it was much better. There's very little real substance to it about the conditions themselves these days.
That's why I read the MRG one to get the real story on snow conditions and fill in the gaps on the SB one.
Yup...I do the same. MRG is a great example of brutally honest snow reporting.
Sadly it requires them to be open .
Plus blowing almost no snow probably doesn't help.
Shots fired! But so true. I can't imagine the snow is much different over there, I guess they just have higher standards for staying open. Plus blowing almost no snow probably doesn't help.
Was the best 4+" of snow that I have skied in a while....it was really quiet for the first hour. Second run of the day was Northstar which was perfect surfing density snow.
