    Magic Carpets - The Most Dangerous Lift on the Mountain?

    No! Although I suppose it depends on the individual's motivation. I was a liftie for a short period of time. It would drive me nuts to be in a mid station unloading all day. I can't listen to myself for that long. o_O

    Whiteface Conditions

    Lookout to open "tomorrow at 9:00." Patrol bringing signs up today. Skiing like mid winter. No wind, visibility is decent up top. No wait in lift lines; all lifts that mean anything are open. no racing on Draper's. Guns staged on the rest of Mountain Run and Upper Parkway. I don't think...

    What is your most positive memory of skiing in NY?

    Poaching Lower Parkway (WF) with a group that shall remain nameless. The powder was knee deep standing just below mid of Freeway. Absolutely no base whatsoever, to the point of feeling each of the streams that go across the trail. I fell at one point and couldn't reach the ground to be able...

    Top Picks for Underrated and Overrated Comedians

    I don't think one can over rate George Carlin. Of all professions, a comedian - comedian! set policy for all broadcast media as to the words you can't say over the air. Now that's influential. Those with a clean act, like Kathleen Madigan, really impress me. When I first heard Ron White's...

    Building a House with Wood

    ^this. With a fan and a power failure, will you get any heat? Can you encase a silver pipe in a material that matches the rest of the house (and is still a esthetically pleasing to you)?

    Snowmaking

    I can't stand this sort of statement from the author, "making snow requires enormous amounts of energy, which creates planet-warming emissions." It all depends on the energy source. And even if the power is from "dirty" sources, most snowmaking is done at night when power demand is much less...

    Baseball

    I'm taking a stab at Willie Stargell and 8. Do you ask the question because someone recently tied the record?

    Killington Conditions

    Maybe a stupid question, but do they make snow on Superstar 24x7 whenever it's cold enough? Or do they stop at some point in the season?

    Wildlife

    I was going to say that those people need a baseball bat to the head, but I'll settle for wondering why the people filming didn't try to stop those morons.

    On tomorrow's ORDA board agenda: l. Resolution # 534 - Resolution Committee Capital and Granting Approval for the President & CEO to Enter Into Agreements for the Whiteface Mountain Little Whiteface Lift Replacement From what Aaron said on a podcast, and according to Liftblog, it's getting...

    DIN Settings

    I think it may be logarithmic. But be careful when playing with the DIN. You also have to adjust the forward pressure. For some models there is a small arrow toward the ski that has to fit between the two hashes. That would indicate proper forward pressure.

    Total Solar Eclipse coming to NY: April 8, 2024

    There is no way I'm trusting my eyesight to a pair of $3 glasses that were probably made by some Chinese kid. I'll set up my camera on the tripod and record it.
