Bristol or Platty for NY and Elk or Montage for PA is what I’m hoping for?

Mama deer and her newborn fawn were hanging out in my front yard yesterday. They got spooked by something, mother deer took off into the brush across the road and the fawn just laid down. She watched me from across the street as I came up to get this shot. About a half hour later, she crossed...

I started in ski club in 7th grade and was immediately hooked. I got away from it when I was in my 20’s for one reason or another. Got back into it in my mid 30’s with the hopes that my kids and wife would share the same passion for it as me. Unfortunately, after a few years, they all lost...

I saw a FB post earlier from a former forum member and the coverage still looked pretty decent on Fields/Stoic.

GP skied great this morning. Fields to Stoic was prime corn top to bottom. Olympian was good too except for the bare area at the bottom of the head wall. Looks like they have enough snow to hang on through the week.

Snow is nice this morning, but fading fast. Smoke em while you got em!

Today’s conditions were great. Everything groomed to perfection with very few icy spots. Labyrinth is starting to get a bit thin, but the trees off of chair 2 still have plenty of cover. Things softened up nicely as the day went on. They have plenty of snow made, so hopefully Mother Nature...

Yes, it was good today, except for an icy patch at the top of Freefall. Looked like they got 4-5 inches since the weekend.

Agreed, I don’t remember a non holiday weekday as busy as today.

Yes, it was?

My rule of thumb is one hour of drive time for one hour of skiing for a day trip. That gets me anything in the Catskills and Holiday Valley in western NY. I’d definitely daytrip Magic Mt, but it’s not looking promising this year due to COVID.

Chair 2 has those cool erector set towers and like Brownski says some great tree skiing. There was this day about a year ago.... And when there’s enough snow, this line rocks! Chair 4 is great for all the reasons Camp says basically. Plus if your skiing it in the morning, you can time it...

1. Plattekill Double 2. Chair 2 at GP 3. Chair 4 at GP This thread definitely makes me realize that I need to ski more areas in NYS.

Maybe something to fill the Catskills void????

RIP Eddie VanHalen??. Another one gone too soon.?

I might ski Swain once a year. It’s the same drive for me as GP, but GP has much more to offer!

My condolences to you and your wife, Camp. 2020 can’t be over soon enough.?

Happy National Dog Day! Here are my two.

Two things that come to mind are the assassination attempt on President Reagan, and the space shuttle Challenger explosion. I was in grammar school then. I also have a couple memories of the bicentennial. I would have been 3 at the time. Great idea for a topic!
