Posted from the attitash triple because I got nothing but time.

There's absolutely no one here. The snow is spring like and smooth. My runs so far the trail is completely empty and I'm not gonna lie it's pretty fucking good but clearly word is out and the locals are skiing elsewhere. So at what point does vail suck so incredibly bad that it's actually good?

Surprised they're loading the triple this late. Hopefully there's some daylight left when you get to the top this evening.

Honestly though sounds pretty good. I don't often go midweek (went on Tues after MLK and summit triple was closed). Really I've only been to Attitash holiday/weekends when Wildcat is on windhold or not skiing particularly well and it's usually straight garbage. I can imagine summit runs being pretty fun if the trails are not shoulder to shoulder bodies.

I've got a soft spot for this place honestly. I don't come here often but when I do it's fun.

Just went into the lodge to piss and saw 2 employees and zero customers. That's on the main mtn side...

Attitash is always dead on weekdays (Except last year) They used to have a bunch of old guys that would ride the yankee until about noon. But no yankee. And the forecast called for rain today. And the old guys don’t like noT having Abenaki, they don’t want to skate to bear and back.

Was so funny on Saturday. Lodge is packed at attitash, every table taken, plus people standing. Requiring a vax card to buy from cafeteria, but where you sit is open to everyone. The lady at the table next to me had her friend grab her lunch for her family, was talking about being unvaccinated. It was mayhem in there, no limiting people. Such a waste of resources to have that stupid security guard with the fake badge. So so stupid. But can’t run the lifts because lack of staff. Making bank though, parking in the overflow lots. Fuck that place.
