Whiteface Conditions

This guy skis on the Mark IVs. Apparently Olins were the preferred skis of secret agents in the 80s.

Hilarious! And if you're a ski pole you stand about as much of a chance of survival as the red shirted guy named "Smith" in Star Trek.

Slides are open. About 30 minutes ago. Practically zero wind at the summit. Sun came out Outstanding day.

Looks like very little wind in the forecast for the next several days. Wondering if Saturday or Sunday has a better chance of an opening.

Also looks like some more snow next week. Might be a nice March at WF...

Well I used my Amex free night award for the Hampton Inn on Saturday, so it's Slides or bust. I hope this is a decision I do not live to regret.

I'll be up there Tuesday, my fingers are crossed

How would you possibly regret it? You're going skiing and conditions are excellent.

I'm going both days specifically for The Slides, so them not opening would cause me to regret my decision.

I knew that was your answer, but I would approach it differently. The goal is to be happy (right?) so set yourself up for success.

Didn't you say upthread that you thought WF was saving the slides for weekdays? Why not go on a weekday?

Have you been in the slides before? Either way can't wait to hear your report.

I've been in The Slides on 3 separate occasions. All were gold status on weekends. April 2, 2017; April 9, 2017; and March 25, 2018.
