Ahhh, routine back to normal, 4 was spinning. As soon as I walked into the lodge and spoke with Camo John I realized I f'd up yesterday. Turns out chair 5 opened at 9:30 with shuttle service. If I wasn't so pissed over the state of affairs on the front side, I might have thought to check about...

Yes, so nice to ski with you guys. Glad we got Olympian early, it was scary at 2 o'clock. Probably not as much if my edges were sharper, weeeeee!

Yeah, I'm sure it does...not! Well here's to a smoother day on the hill tomorrow, gonna be brutally cold at opening, but close to 30 as a high, heatwave! I hear they plan on running 4 tomorrow, and working on it Monday, we shall see.

I don't know if I'll make 80. Unless they can grow me a liver in a sheep when I need one. Between my boozing days and working with solvents for over 30 years, my liver is probably at least 80 now.

Thanks for the young fella. I've got 4 years on you. I'm officially a senior at McCauley now, I can ski weekdays for $20 instead of $25, weekends for $30 instead of $35. Gotta love those rates, unbelievable. And it's one gnarly 600ft mountain. I like to sit sideways on chair 4 and catch either...

Trojan, out of the wind, that's the funniest thing I've read all day. I think I've stood still and gone backwards on top of Trojan.

Greek continues to amaze. Got there at opening, skied four great runs, about two inches on top of groomed, one of my favorite surfaces to ski. Anyway, no line whatsoever on our first three runs. The line was quite substantial after our fourth. No problem, we know the drill, over to 4, ski 4...

I don't know, partly sunny and 28° Sunday, sounds like excellent ski weather to me.

Emily, you expect the lifts you ride to be safe...stop your whining.

Are you for real? Yeah, suck it up, just think of it as part of the Greek Peak Adventure center. A season's pass perk. If you're lucky you'll get to experience the thrill of the chair 5 fifty foot roll back, it's thrilling!

So, pick your ancient lift poison, Greek, or Elk. That is the first evacuation I've heard of at Elk. I know of several at Greek.

Yes, skied past them being attended to in the glade, prayers. Greek was absolutely stellar today, shame the cold is leaving. But snow may be on its way later in the week.

I think you'd like the North Quad pod, Sleeping Bear, Tahawus are really nice mellow trails. Gore is an awesome mountain, first big mountain I ever skied. As Harvey said, lots of blues and greens on the lower mountain, enjoy!

DHA, thanks for the detailed "breakdown" ? of Greek's lifts. I agree that snowmaking was the first order of business to be addressed, and addressed it was, the whales I've seen on the hill during the recent cold snap have been quite impressive. Chair 5, the only lift I've ever been evacuate...

1-3 tomorrow, 3 would freshen up the offpiste nicely. Looked pretty nice Tuesday.

Yep, fun with skinny skis this weekend. Gonna be a little chilly.

You'll always be hole to me.? I predict snow, the owner of Berger's in Binghamton asked me to demo some narrow, by today's standards, can't remember what, 80's? And short for my height and weight, 170 something? They're Volkls, again can't remember the model, but he suggested I try them after I...

Powder skis behind a sled sounds like fun, thought of that driving by fields and fields of powder near Snow Ridge.

That spent Bill's defense didn't stand a chance, game decided on the flip of a coin, what a shame. Not saying the Bills would've scored a TD too, but the Chief's defense was equally whooped. I think they probably would have.

What a heartbreak for the Bills, up 3 with 13 seconds, so close
