Plattekill Conditions

[MarzNC]

@Harvey : I know it's early to ask, but what's the most likely weekend for the Plattekill work day this fall? I get bonus points if I make a BW reservation in the next day or two and travel before Nov. 30, 2021. Might combine that with another visit to Big SNOW to meet up with friends.

Thanks for the reminder @MarzNC . We are thinking 10/23, raindate 10/24.

Need to confirm that, working on it now.

Hmm, that might be more complicated. Daughter is planning to come home that weekend to celebrate her 21st birthday. She wants to take BF to the NC State Fair. He's never been even though he's lived in NC since the start of high school.

Although if they are pigging out on fair food, I don't need to be around to cook.

What are the chances you’ll show up on either of those two dates?

Great to know the date! Have it on my calendar.

Already warned daughter I may not be home that weekend. Her visit home for the NC State Fair will be somewhat weather dependent. That's true for my drive to NY. At least late October should be past the peak of hurricane season.

Is parking lot camping okay for these events? I've stayed the night in the lot for bike races in the past but have not come up for a trimming work day yet. Always love an opportunity to be up bright and early up on the mountain that time of year, some of the most scenic views I've seen were at bike races at Platte that time of year.

Generally Plattekill is pretty chill about this, and during the offseason I can't imagine it would be an issue. I'll check with Danielle.

Note to all, never ASSUME this is ok, especially on a powder day where you could hinder plowing.

Spoke to Danielle. The gate will be likely be closed, but you can park in the "bus lot."

She said there is a sign indicating which lot is the bus lot. Funny I don't ever remember seeing it, but usually my eyes are up on the hill when I'm arriving.
