Gore Mountain Conditions

DomB said:
Conditions were ok today. Sunway was pretty good, showcase was good. Skier's right of Arena was sweet. Overall good day. Uncrowded.

Up top was firm. Only skied Lies once while fam was on a cocoa break. Lies - One patroller: 'hardpack'; another, 'fast and firm', the guy who skied it after me (not a patroller), 's***' (rhymes with nit). I would call it hardpack with a handful of good spots to turn. The 'nit' guy said it was really good yesterday. They did the thing where they rope off 3/4 of the trail to get people to think before going. Luckily for me I just had my skies tuned.

There were fun whales on Arena. I would expect that Wild Air to Arena will be pretty good tomorrow because they were blowing like crazy. Also, there is a trail next to Topridge (not Pine knot) that they were blowing like crazy that should be good.

Echo (and, I assume, the Burnt Ridge chair) were open all week for racers only. It’s open today (Saturday) for the paying public. All of Chatiemac also open today ungroomed, the combination of man made and natural snow on the top half was awesome on Wednesday.

AE2 on MLK Saturday just before noon explains it.

Maybe the Gondi shot is even more telling. It is nearly walk on. Getting up the courage to layer up for a few runs. : )

I will probably just go over to Echo to check it out and then head back or meet up fam at dog park or in town. Tomorrow should be a bit warmer (not too much) and a bit less windy.

and right on time for its standard opening. The $8 million Mercedes Benz HSQ always opens mid Jan or later. It will be open sporadically for another 7-8 weeks. That lift will last forever.
