ice, whats the coverage on starr and lift lion? the site says the top of starr is still not open... how close is it in your opinion?...also, were you able to get a look at al's ? how far away is that from being open ?.... i use the top 1/3rd of starr and al's as my minimum standard to start...

started out at the south peak just to see first hand all the silly hoopla they have been shouting about in regards to the new loon double black diamond trail rip saw- :roll: ....the trail does probably have the steepest sustained pitch on the hill....for about 300 feet or so... :D ... ahh...

the reports put the SR corridor getting most of the snow over the weekend....reports of mid 20's and no wind and no pay to ski with the boyne pass made the decision relatively easy.... the good: more variety for sure than loon....decent surfaces for the most part and no wind.. a competition...

i have a co worker who asked me about bringing his family up north to ski for the first time...this guy has his wife , and 4 kids....twins who are 5, an 8 year old and a 12 year old....none have ever stepped foot into a binding before....when he hinted at it , i told him he could go to my place...

http://www.killingtonzone.com/forums/vi ... =1&t=25260 ahh , geoff.....eventually the truth comes out and those who pontificate about that which they do not understand get exposed.....or maybe it's just " the market has changed " in 1 year.... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

i certainly consider your reports legit without question... as i do 95% of the reports on THIS site....that just shows me even more how confusing it gets...i m hearing reports that killington is not good at all...upstate NY based on yours is a lot different than most of VT and NH and ME seem to...

look a this report from mad river on today's site= Updated on Friday, January 2, 2009 at 16:30:00 Things are beginning to slowly turn around for us. We picked up several inches of light, fluffy snow over the past couple days and we have a shot for more over the next several days as well...

sitting here at work in the middle of the urban decay/concrete jungle , looking at the filthy dirty brown snow remnants left from the rain, reading jspin's post about leaving here to go home to there ( VT ) my only comment is... you're a lucky man there Jspin.... ](*,)

i didn't realize putting up no bull, non embellished ski reports on conditions as they actually are and not some figments of someone's imagination was pissing and moaning :roll:

diversity???? =; :-& ... i've skied to many frozen gran, jaw droppin rock solid bump lines with cold so cold it feels like your face is gonna split in half to have time to seek and celebrate diversity..... [-( 8-[ ....diversity, that's funny.....you can stick diversity up the yazoo.... must...

while i appreciate ice's enthusiasm and as one who has tossed a few bombs on this board, my only comment on this almost out of control thread is , for me, this isn't even worth discussing....the admin , crocker and their cohorts couldn't lose this one if they tried....this is single A baseball...

we were this close to bypassing lincoln all together and going to VT...sometimes you win sometimes you lose i guess :wink: next time crocker busts my aggies about loon i can pull this card out :wink: Mad River Today Dec 22, 2008 at 06:00:00 Skiers enjoyed a stellar day of powder skiing...

the web site said 21 in the last 48.... it was legit....probably the best non corn snow day at loon ive had in a good 3 years. this is peculiar as loon claims to have broken their all time record for snow last year... if a remember though, quite a few of the events last year came on weekends...

just arrived in lincoln....drive up on 93 fine until about e 23...very slow going after that...3 1/2 total time .. usually 2.... there is a good 18 of non windblown outside the condo right now....loon can't seem to manage to get a report up on the web site as of 830 ](*,) :roll: .... stowe ...

my buddy is up there and said tuesday at loon was the worst surface conditions he has seen in all his years of skiing...pure sheet metal garbage and full face mask cold =; :roll: he told me not to come up as i was headed up tonight....looks like that is it for me till after christmas break...

as anyone who has been out there probably knows, that gondy being down puts the only access to blackcomb on the wizard express quad ... outside of the fact that no one got killed, they are lucky it happened now and not during a vacation period... they would be screwed trying to manage the...

I cant help but think, YOU PEOPLE SHOULD STFU AND BE HAPPY YOU HAVE HILLS LARGER THAN 500 FEET TO SKI/RIDE/SLIDE ON! ](*,) Seriously, we all should be happy we can afford to ski, as there are a LOT of people hurting just to pay bills and food on the table in this country, and in this world...

ironically , loon probably had the best combo of temps and elevation for the day to get a reasonable shot at a decent skiing surface and still have power to spin, outside of the stowe area.. see the report from today....and i don't think it would have been much better to be honest...K had no...

here is the link but in case it goes away, i dragged it below if that 's ok with the admin http://www.rutlandherald.com/article/20 ... /812120382 Killington founder Preston Leete Smith is shown at the ski resort before he sold it to Les Otten in 1996. Smith recently reflected on his years...

what a strange 2 dayer... woke up for a nature call at 3am and it was pouring rain out...oh well, no skiing today....up at 9am figuring nothing to do but kill time till the roads cleared from the massive mess that was apparently :? going on... stepping out it was 4 inches of slush...
