Skiing and Riding On This Date

[Low Angle Life]

Dug up some photos from 2/27/10 at Hunter, sure it's a little late but I think for this storm we can make an exception.

Pics are not great but the last time I skied in NY was on this day 4 years ago. We were in between college visits to RPI and Clarkson so hit up ye olde state run ski facility for the day while the wife caught up with friends in GF/Wburg.

It skied more like April 1st than March 1st that day.

My daughters riding the High Peaks double. They were 14 and 17 at the time….they hadn’t ridden this lift since they were 3 and 6.

Ice jam along Golf Course Rd on the way in.

it certainly felt like a once in a lifetime event.

It snowed for days.

I remember @jasonwx posted a week out something like this on our front page:

"Huge Winter Storm Coming, Maybe."

If I remember right
The models generated 4” of qpf
With marginal upper cold air
This was a Sierra type event. Very elevation dependent.

If I remember right I haven’t a clue what qpf is.

Bananas! I was probably twiddling my thumbs in class, blissfully unaware that this was going on.
