Ya don’t need to play it back when you’re laying in bed watching it live

It’s pretty sweet out here this morning. Started on 7, box was a delayed opening, over here now it’s nice.

The snow on the back end mixed in with the rain and made it all a nice grippy surface where it’s groomed. Onteora is ungroomed top to bottom and lots of fun!

As of right now, guns going on Dot top to bottom, Yahoo top to bottom, top of ridge to roaring brook and the bottom of roaring brook as far up as I can see from the Overlook lodge. Can only assume the whole trail is lit up but don’t know for sure.

Day 6 in the books. Stayed on the East side today. Firm in the morning - gave way to loose over firm. Bluebird for a few hours which was amazing, first time this year. Goat Path was boiler plate in many places by 11. 31 degrees when I left Overlook - 41 in Boiceville, never ceases to amaze me. Light crowd - blowing on Roaring and Dot top to bottom all day.

I also was at Belleayre today. I agree that there was a light crowd. Here is a picture from when I stopped at Overlook for lunch a little after 11am

Today was only my second time there. First time was about 7 years ago on a crowded Saturday when the conditions were not that great. Low crowd and better conditions definitely improved my opinion of the place (even with less than half the trails open). Looking forward to going back (and I will not wait another 7 years until the next visit).

Yahoo open. Still waiting on Dot Nebel

Belle has the greatest percentage of open terrain in NY

And the self-described "snowmaking capital of the world" has far less than a quarter of its terrain open. F-Vail!
