Got that right, it's a double black diamond on xc skis for sure.

Still some good stretches of skiable terrain in one shaded E/W valley nearby. Felt good to get out and get in some nice XC skiing before dark, liking the time change a lot.

It was really nice yesterday am, glad I got another good day in. I don't see Lookout chair opening again this year, LOB has totally melted out at the top, unless we get a BIG storm the slides are toast. Skyward is holding up nicely though, the Face is too but Wilderness is taking a hit on the...

Glad I went on Saturday, excellent everywhere but you could see it was going fast in all the usual spots. Not much open today and no Wilmington tomorrow (or maybe the rest of the season). After yesterday I wouldn't be surprised if that lift is done til next year. Next couple days look like good...

First ride of the season, pretty good grip, only went down once.

A Basin is the shortest drive and has more expert terrain. It's also the highest in elevation, but not so much that it will make a big difference over the other areas, what's an extra 1000' when you are already up over 12000.

Earned some blissful turns a few days before yesterdays slop. but if the storm shows up this weekend it could be back to fabulous. Lets hope.

Yeah, really? Ditto.

NY Mesonet sites are not nearly as optimistic as this site. Generally showing 3-5" at best for Tri Lakes area, less the farther north you go. Crossing fingers that this map is going to pull through.

For sure, this is the most snow we've had on the ground in many many winters, sad to say. We usually have several major thaw melt downs along the way. Tired of shoveling but will do it gladly to keep the skiing good, keep it coming!

Agree w Kleetus, Skyward was excellent, but w the windblown snow it was hard to see your skiis or the surface as you headed down, just had to trust that there was snow and not ice underneath. Upper Northway was the sleeper standout in my book, Upper left excellent pow top 2 thirds then cut...

NYS Mesonet this am. Overnight lows: Piseco -23, Newcomb -17, Old Forge -15, Tupper Lake -14. Those temps make for some really squeaky snow.

Got that right, tri lakers are getting hosed big time. 50 cents less in Plattsburgh? Even out in Star Lake, serious middle of nowhere, 30-40 cents less than tri lakes? Potsdam/Canton also getting hosed like the tri lakes but Malone is way less? Makes absolutely no sense.

Apparently the wound wasn’t healing properly so she had surgery on Thursday and they put in a drain. So she will be off the circuit for longer than expected. Bummer.

Friend(lurker) saw this and reminded me of a few other sig reasons the town sold it. In addition to the lodge expansion, shortly after put in the second chair at the base. Late 70s they added the upper chair. Both added more debt. And he reminded me of the lack of competent management. Second...

Harv, Sorry for the delayed response, been lets say under the weather recently. The new owners are saying all the right things to appeal to the locals, getting the mountain opened back up was always the carrot the ACR guys were dangling, but never really had any intention of running it...

Harv, a little off what I was looking for but a good conversation.

I'm no lawyer or tax expert but from what I understand all relevant creditors have been properly notified and have been given every opportunity to challenge the tax sale. I think some have tried staving this off by filing challenges and all have been unsuccessful. This has been a long process...

I had a pair of Harts and Olins. At the time I thought hey both were excellent skiis. Would be interesting to try skiing on them now for comparisons sake.

Not tech savvy enough to start a new thread or what the heading should be. Maybe, Date yourself, have you owned any of these skis? https://snowbrains.com/top-5-most-missed-ski-brands-according-to-snowbrains-readers/
