    Life on Mars?

    I drive a Jeep with old-school roll up/roll down windows. My kid legitimately could not figure out how to get the window down and she refused to believe me when I told her.

    Belleayre Conditions

    I expected it to be icier than it actually was. It was snowing all morning, which helped. It wasn't crowded, I walked right on to every chair.

    Belleayre Conditions

    Cathedral Brook was closed but I figured I'd duck the rope and give it a shot. I discovered that falling face-first onto an icy mogul isn't all it's cracked up to be.

    It was icy and crowded. Still had fun though!

    Belleayre Conditions

    If you frequent better mountains, you probably won't be all that impressed by Cathedral Brook. For example, there are 7 or 8 slopes at Platty that are pretty similar. It's steepish and ungroomed with blown down trees and other natural obstacles. But Belleayre is almost completely groomed. So...

    Belleayre Conditions

    Another delightful day at the Belle. I mostly stuck to the woods today, which I would say I'm only barely capable of doing. Anybody watching me would say that I'm *clearly* not capable of doing it. But I just take it slow and have fun. Cathedral Brook was another highlight, although I was...

    Is 15 minutes a normal wait for a lift?

    Coronavirus and Skiing

    How would they know if someone's been vaccinated? If we've learned anything from the past year it's that people can't be trusted to do what's best for others if given a chance to what's worst.

    Winter Weather 20/21

    My brother's in Dallas. He's got a nice Jewish name. He's also got an immense pick up truck, an arsenal of weapons, and a blonde wife.

    Life on Mars?

    I doubt it. It's cold on Mars.

    Belleayre Conditions

    All the folks who have Limited passes are blacked out this whole week. I'd imagine that they couldn't really have any idea how many season pass holders would show up but had to reserve space for them anyway. They can't sell day passes if it could potentially take the place of a season ticket...

    Yes! I had to leave around 12:30 to get some work in today.

    Plattekill Conditions

    My first trip to Plattekill and I see why you folks love it so much. I don't even understand how they have so much powder. It was so wonderful (and such a new experience for me as a Catskills skier) that I tried to stick as much as possible to the windy trails in the woods. But even their...

    Question for Single Mountain Season Pass Holders

    Here's a thought that will die once I'm done typing it. The state-run resorts should make reciprocal privileges. So ORDA skiers could go to Cannon, Badger Pass, etc. If they kept the prices reasonable it would work like a public option for healthcare and keep the execs at the profit-driven...
