I want to wash my hands, my face, my hair in snow.

I really hope it starts to snow soon.

I would say Hunter snowmaking has regressed in the past 3-5 years. https://nyskiblog.com/hunter-mountain-snowmaking-silk/

This is really tough to gauge given the new ownership and the addition of Hunter North over the past half dozen years. Vail has seemingly been less aggressive in general regarding snowmaking than past owners and there has been a clear priority to get North open before West. And of course, it all...

Stritzler is totally going to sell to Vail now. That oughta learn 'em.

I made it to work in Downtown Manhattan, but I am not sure how I am getting home. The subways are mostly suspended!

I bought the Northeast Value Pass for two seasons (2020-21 and 2021-22) for the exact reasons you mentioned. The Ski3 pass at $809 (or whatever it is now) is still the better deal. Mountains are just as close, lift lines are way shorter and the perks (free AND 1/2 price lift tickets for friends...

Yes, there are some positives and if it's faster than the quad, getting to the top via F chair will be better too. The problem is this increase in uphill capacity will fill the trails even more, while Hunter West is ignored.

Hunter can put in all the lifts they want, but it won't matter unless they run the Zephyr more frequently and actually blow snow on the West side.

If only there were a way to not pay for electricity and get a tax break from New York State to do so.

I feel like Killington is what it is at this point. What's a few (thousand) more condos? They call it Kmart for a reason. On the other hand, there are so many reasons that nothing like this would ever happen at Gore or Plattekill, etc.

I have a ski buddy with the same boot size, weight and skill so we swap skis from time to time. I am not a big fan of his Enforcers--they are pretty heavy and not very snappy.. That same friend tried my Allplays and ended up buying the J Escalator this year. We're old and don't want to work so...

I switched from RTM 81s 171cm to J Allplays 178cm/98 wide last season. I am the same height about 20 lbs heavier than you. Completely different ski in just about every way, but once I got used to holding an edge on hardpack with them (difficult, but can be done) I haven't looked back. Allplays...

Not anymore, apparently.

The Governor Malcolm Wilson Tappan Zee Bridge was replaced (and destroyed in 2017). The current bridge has always been called the Mario Cuomo Bridge. I don't like the guy anymore than it seems the rest of you do, but no matter what the signs on the highway say it's name is what it is. Now let's...

It never was the Tappan Zee bridge, but I could get behind "The F'n Tappan Zee Bridge" for this one.

Oof. I think even the biggest haters of VR can agree that the Sackler family is much, much more evil.

Jackson Hole is on the Ikon pass
