Weather has gotten a little less rainy this weekend, Both Sat and Sun look dry by 11am. But Saturday is temps in the 60s and Sun is temps in the 40s. So, back to Sunday.

Thinking I'll do an overnight trip to snowshoe soon. Watching the weather and other options...

Watch your skis, bring a slush-breaker structure and high temp wax like crazy.

Every runout and every lift approach is a bog-down. Transfer trails are a slog. Green trails are harder than blue by lunchtime because lack of drainage.

I mean, sure, you can stay over on WT all day because the gradient is fairly steady but it's ribbon skiing at this point.

Thanks for the heads up...

But beyond all that, should be pretty sweet.

Although Laurel Mountain is now closed for the season, I thought some might find this video interesting. It is about a ski area I've been crazy about for over 40 years.

There were a few Ski Talkers there. That was a nice Mid-A Gathering. Too bad we didn't get it together this season.

Very cool - I recognized one of those folks .
Still need to ski it!

Gas tank full $$
Lift ticket paid and reserved to pick up at noon $$
Will set GPS for Appalachian and hit the road around 8:30am.

Should be fun for awhile..

Happy Appy still has tons of snow. Never seen it better on last day of the season. Good times!






I was waiting for @Old boot and @Lady_Salina to come down and skim the pond. Not sure where they went???

 

[johnnyvw]

Pretty impressive for the "banana belt"!

Winter desperately trying to hang on (from just outside of Greenbank)

Warm bluebird day at snowshoe. The word of the day is "grabby" even with freshly waxed skis. Definitely messes with your fore/ aft balance. Fun day all in all.

 

[crgildart]

So Beech and Sugar are still spinning the lifts after all. Sugar even still has night skiing. Good for them!

Beech announced upgrades coming this summer, including a quad replacing a double, more snowmaking, and converting some terrain.
