I wasn’t anticipating Ski Day 1 when I woke up this morning in the flatlands. The plan was to have a relaxed drive. Get some lingering pre-season chores done. I had definitely wanted to stop in at Gore, and even take “a run.” But I wasn’t going to call this opening day. Opening was tomorrow at Whiteface.
On the drive up, it snowed pretty hard at times. I did a successful test of NYSB’s new mobile posting capability when I posted a pic of a squall from the rest area just south of Albany.
I got to the mountain at 2pm. The improvements to the main lodge looked really good. There’s more space, and the bathrooms are all done. So smart to put the Showcase Shop up front. It’s really nice inside, with a deluxe view of the mountain.
