    Uphill Battle

    I may have missed it, but does anyone know specific resort policies regarding uphill travel after closing day when there is still significant snow pack on the trails? As we know, closing dates are often dictated by economic factors rather than actual snow conditions. Specifically if anyone has...

    Coronavirus and Skiing

    "I am done listening to stories about how the unvaccinated are getting sick, therefore, not over. Enough. These shots are a modern medical miracle. If you are over 50, obese, or, even healthy, which most aren't, and still refuse a shot, sorry about your suicidal tendencies." Yes, maybe you...

    Coronavirus and Skiing

    "This is pretty much over." After two years of in-person teaching, I got it in the elementary school I work in right before Christmas break. Double vaccinated, no booster shot, always wear a mask, and I eat lunch in my car. Unfortunately mask enforcement and other COVID protocols have not been...

    WiFi camera / webcam suggestion to view mountain from house?

    We recently got WiFi service up at the ski house. I’d like to install an outdoor WiFi camera to keep tabs on the view and conditions when not up there. Mainly for fun but additional features such as zooming etc. are a bonus. Reasonably priced options are best, not looking for the most expensive...

    Plattekill Conditions

    Ha, yeah I was going to hit you up about your Burton Backseat Driver and Harriman. Both the board and the spot are on my list. Completely updated the quiver this season after years on 158 K2 Eldorado and and 157 K2 Electra. Hopefully another more significant snowfall the following weekend. I'll...

    Plattekill Conditions

    Thanks, I grabbed a $56 ticket for Friday. Orange jacket, light gray pants, and biege helmet hopefully riding fast if the snow cooperates on a 156 K2 Niseko Pleasures. Or slower if I try out the new 144 Gentemstick Rocket Fish for the first time. Looking forward to it!

    Windham Conditions

    If you know the trails and lifts well and when to hit them, especially when both peaks are in play, there are a lot of options at Windham. Some trails are also harder to access, which can really break up the crowd. More than a few tree lines in addition to the official glades when the natural...

    Thanks, Harvey. Do you know if they will be blowing snow before reopening Friday?

    Plattekill Conditions

    I'm thinking of hitting Plattekill for the first time Friday. I usually ride Windham, as we've had a house there since 1984, but it looks like Friday might be a good time to make the drive. I generally ride fast and "surfy" with deep carving turns, seek out soft fresh snow, powder, and trees...
