Catamount Conditions

Thank you sir!

Thank you sir!

Ha you are welcome. I've never skied Cat (bad Harv!) so I'm sure Rich's input means more to you than me.

Post a pic or two tomorrow in this thread!

This was my year to rack up new areas. Some shit got in the way, and kinda messed with my head. Now I seem to be gravitating to my comfort zone.

To "our" credit we've put up a bunch of new areas on the front page, thanks to our awesome team.

Ideally if I am going to get something new this year, it will likely be Oak, Song, Tog or Lab.

Anyone wants to show me Oak, I'd dig it on a midweek pow day. @Stu has been there already this season (loved it) so I'm guessing he won't go back this season.

Definitely not gonna give shit about the shit. Strange year. Great snow though. Definitely an awesome team. About the Cat, the first step is admitting?

IMHO, Catamount is the best ski area with at least a 1000' vert that is closest to NYC.

Not to take away from the Cat, but it would be nice to see some love thrown to the South. Thunder Ridge, Fahnstock, West Point etc. Seems rare these days to get this much snow down here

I love 'em all...(except not a big Thunder Ridge fan) but they fall way short of my 1000' vert criteria.

My criteria is snow

Reached out to Rich:

Hello Harvey, I trust all is well.

Catapult is open today. Ripper is closed today. Both need grooming after a busy weekend. Snowmaking resumes on Catapult this afternoon. I am not sure if either will be open Wednesday.

Birch Glade is not open today because we are making snow on trails that access the glades. That will be back open tomorrow with 3" of today's snow (and still snowing).

We made snow last night on Marty's, Shawenon, Ridge Run, Mountain View and Colonel's Caper.. We will make snow on several more trails in NY and MA tonight and throughout the week.

We are getting ready for a busy holiday week when we try not to make snow.

Hope to see you soon!

ETA: "Ripper is supposed to get groomed Wednesday morning."
