Belleayre Conditions

Wow Belle took a big hit since Tuesday! Bunch of good looking terrain closed I'm assuming to conserve some snow for weekend because it skied very well. An inch or two on top of an icy base. Lower mountain hanging by a thread.

Tomorrow should be very good but frankly I'll be shocked if Belle opens on Sunday.
 
So Belle staying open until next Tuesday. Pretty amazing kudos to them!
 
Had a nice afternoon with my son yesterday! Place was empty, lots of dirt/rocks at intersections, but a few solid runs! Tongora's bumps are still in good shape, and Dot still has a ton of snow.

So yesterday was Belleayre's last day of the season. What a great spring day! Parked at Overlook and skied the HSQ first. Lapped Mohawk, Wanatuska, Belleayre Run, Tongora, and Winnisook twice each. Great coverage still and the bumps on Tongora and Winnisook were outstanding! I took the lift up again and was told at the top that they were closing it down temporarily. Good timing. I hiked over to Yahoo and skied that (also great coverage and bumps) before heading back to my car and driving over to Tomahawk which was open. Took Tomahawk up and skied Dot which as I expected was a total corn fest. Great coverage there still as well. Wound up spending the rest of the afternoon lapping Dot. The corn was inches deep and it was hard to stop at 3:30. Skied 5 hours straight and I needed some food. Awesome day.

That pretty much wrapped up my season. No spring skiing in VT this year, could buy a spring pass but I'm not spending money in VT until next season. My small and unnoticed I'm sure protest against the way they are running their COVID show.
All good, the trout are calling my name anyway and flow rates on the Esopus are starting to ease. Water still turbid but getting less dirty and much clearer. Time to fish!!

Having an Orda pass , even though B is not even my 2nd choice in the Cats , economically I ski when I can’t trek to Gore.
While if it just groomers , it is ho him.
But this last Feb and March it skied great. T bolt glade and Dreamcatcher in Feb kept getting refreshed with a few inches for about 2 weeks.
Belleayre left a few trails alone and the first real warm up , fun bumps abounded.
Thanks B management, my ski seasons expectations during this crazy past season was very much exceeded, with your help!
