Amazing leftovers today at Belleayre especially in trees. Lift 7 closed so Yahoo and Onteora pretty much unskied most of the day made for great end of day bump runs. Heading back tomorrow. February has been kind so far.

What is up with Belleayre and the lifts? Every time I'm there, something goes down....

But yeah, place is skiing great. We were there last weekend after the coastal and it was killer. Probably going back Saturday.

I was told they don't run Lift 7 on weekdays. Good by me it meant additional face shots in the bumps at 2:30 in the PM!

Didn't realize how wiped out I was yesterday slept through my 6am alarm today! Decided to sleep some more and relax today, hope anyone who gets out there has a great day. Gore on Friday for me.

Quick question - why are there some dedicated threads to particular mountains but not all mountains?

Not by design; there are a few mountains that many forum members ski at so they just started their own threads about those areas. Feel free to do so for your home hill.

 

[gnardawg]

Cool thanks! I don't really have a home hill. Ski all over typically but have a max pass this year.

Been itching to get to Gore this season. Today did not disappoint! BoarderMike and me hit just about every tree area there today it was packed powder with chopped up powder on the sides. Late in the day we did a run in the Cirque glade and found some untouched snow:

I was there as well with my 13yo. The trails in the sun and groomed were the way to start. Then everything was good around 11. Then it started getting too soft. Most glades were okay except fo YOOYM which really shouldn't have been open. They were having a large bump comp for kids there. Parking was the most crowded part - up and down both sides of the excess road. Lift line ebbed and flowed from ski on to 5 min wait.
