    Winter Weather 21/22

    Yeah the way gas prices are going makes it easier to accept less driving to ski areas than hoped for over the next month.

    Mountain Creek 2-27-2022

    $289 season pass, I live in NJ, and I have no interest even at that price. Just don't enjoy the place. Maybe arson the Cabriolet, re-open Pipeline, and get back to me. Went there some when I lived 45 min away, til I discovered I preferred its pint sized neighbor Hidden Valley when I needed...

    The Indy Pass

    Nice. Hope they keep it for next year's passes which I imagine will go on sale within the next month or so. Set for this year.

    The Storm Skiing Journal comes down hard on ORDA

    Yeah the argument that taxes on other areas support this is quite a stretch.

    Poll: The Impact of the Epic Pass

    I have an Epic, 3rd year in a row. This year I also have an Indy and have used it far more as the increase in Epic Pass sales and getting rid of reservation requirements has led to overcrowding. I would have voted good for skiers in past years but vote bad this year. They should increase price...

    Greek Peak Conditions

    I have never seen more crowded closed runs anywhere ever. Seems like the term closed is used as a synonym for ungroomed sweetness at this place

    Greek Peak Conditions

    It's a little heavy but truly awesome conditions. A lot more is open than shown on their website. The glades are all great. It isn't cold and there are no lines. I dont know if I have ever seen this much of a night and day improvement in all respects in a mountain experience from one day to the...

    Greek Peak Conditions

    Real hard pack conditions on our first three runs on main face. No bare spots at least. Iliad closed for snow making and has whales needing to be groomed out. Hoping we can find a better ski surface as we venture to other trails, otherwise this will be a fairly short day and we will come back...

    Greek Peak Conditions

    Thanks - cabin doesn't seem to be available on such short notice - no surprise. Will book something in Cortland not far from 215 and see if my Forester and Blizzaks live up to their reputation. Think the 5-8" called for Sun Nt will let then open much additional terrain? And how often do they...

    Greek Peak Conditions

    Considering doing Sunday and Monday at Greek Peak - first time coming there - as they look to be in a pretty sweet spot for this storm. With Hope Lake Lodge sold out it seems closest lodging options are in Cortland. Before booking lodging, I wonder if any familiar with the area have any advice...

    Hunter Conditions

    Switched my plans from Hunter to Blue for tomorrow. I'm sure Blue won't be any better - but at least it it closer, all open, and I haven't been there in 2 years. Whereas Hunter would just be less good than when I skied it last Sat and Sun.

    Hunter Conditions

    Nicer conditions Sunday. The snow was adhering to the base better and there were far fewer scraped off areas by days end. Mostly hard pack with 1/2" carve-able on top. Fast but skiable. Lines not bad either other than Flyer. Got 24k vertical in which was just over personal best.

    Hunter Conditions

    1-3" of carve-able surface over icy base in PM today. Choose your spots to turn to avoid where scraped to base. Minimal lines with several ski on lifts. Got 13 runs of 15k vert in 3 hrs. Will be back tomorrow at opening
