Was really hoping that this heatwave would end before this weekend, but doesn’t look like it will. Still looking forward to skiing at Snowshoe for a few days starting Sunday. Forecasts are showing colder weather but who knows.....

Alaska at 67 is scary. Climate change is hitting arctic regions harder. i’ve had some good bike rides, and runs, too, here. But I’d really like 4 seasons, please, as I can ride my bike and go for runs during the other 3.
Eh, that’s what summer and fall are for.We spent the past 5 days down in NC. T-shirt weather pretty much the whole time, was 74 yesterday...you can have Duluth....
Looks like the next good snow making window will be Sunday night through Monday. Planning a day trip up (Sugar, Beech, Appalachian, Wintergreen) with the college kid Tuesday. Where ya'll gonna be at?
Happy New Years everyone.
We’ll be skiing at Snowshoe from Sunday to Wednesday
Yikes, Beech is the place with the most terrain open and it's like this:-(
Beginner area
Sugar :-(

Come on SNOW MISER! Make it happen tomorrow night through Tuesday morning please!
Yeah... looks like early/late season WRODs everywhere. Massanutten and Whitetail are completely closed, Timberline is down to a couple of runs. And Snowshoe looks like this:
We need some COLD!!!!
Those are the skiers who couldn't get a refund on the lodging.
For day trippers at snowshoe, do you need to boot up at the car? Or is there a lodge with lockers?
@wgo probably has that intel, but what I've seen at other places is lodge fully open with signs saying masks required but nobody, not even the staff wearing masks inside.. Proceed indoors to sit in a locker room booting up at your own risk.
I'll be booting up at the car Tuesday (wherever we end up) and only going in to quickly use the bathrooms.
Wintergreen and all the NC resorts are all officially "Temporarily Closed". Never seen that in January. Fingers crossed that we can get up and running somewhere by Tuesday or Wednesday. If not, next weekend. but I'm off til Thursday so Tuesday would be ideal.. On the bright side 6"+ of natural is forecast there tomorrow night-Tuesday morning. We're certainly going to be ready to roll Tuesday morning if the rope drops. Rock skis FTW!
My best guess is that most will have a WROD or 3 open Tuesday with 6"+ of natural and all guns full blast tomorrow, Wednesday if the natural assist doesn't pan out. Could easily be over a foot of natural up high. But, that's not really skiable without any base at all under it... and they'll definitely roller it down to packed base immediately. There will be no powder skiing from this cycle down here beyond what's falling while actually open and skiing... and rocks and stumps and brush under that so stuff without a little thin base will be closed..
There is a lodge with pay lockers
6" so far at Sugar and Beech. Sugar is open summit to base. Rest should be tomorrow.
