I just got off the phone with pine knob ski patrol, and they will be open on Saturday, Day shift only. This will be the last day of the year. 2" - 6" tonight, should be good skiing/ride'n on Saturday.

Correct MI Skier! Pine Knob is open today, they don't say anything about Saturday, Maybe if skier turn out is light today they might not open Saturday. I think Saturday will draw more people there as we have a winter storm on it's way Friday night. Good news with this storm is they are...

So true Tony. Some years I can recall SE lower Michigan was done by Late February. Even with all the snow that we got this year (4th all time), there is none on the ground and the ski areas are just grooming it out to keep the base. With a max Elevation 1,004 feet at the ski hills (bumps) we...

With the winter storm watch taking aim on South Eastern Michigan (Friday & Friday Night), and most ski areas trying to stay open for one more weekend, this might be it for Southeastern Lower Michigan. Saturday or Sunday look good with mostly sunny skies and low 40’s Northern Lower Michigan might...

If the snow was better, it would have been fantastic. It was our first cat ride ever, so just to experience it was awesome. I would pay $5 not to hike anytime ;) It was about a 8min ride total. My wife did fine on her snowboard in the flat section, as you know it's much more work on a board then...

10" Reported at 7am and still snowing hard. Chair 6 / The T-Bar / Imperial Express all on hold. With the sounds of avalanche guns going off we caught the Gondola at 8:30am sharp. We had to catch a flight out today so our time was limited and stuck to the Colorado super chair and Rockey MT...

A chilly day compared to Breckenridge the day before. Started off about 10am and everything groomed was solid, tress were skiing a little better. took the summit express lift to mozart trail. Back on to the Santiago express hung out in last alamo ambush and star fire for a while, everything was...

Just another blue bird day at Breckenridge. Sun all day long and no wind, it was spring skiing on just about all the slopes not a real heavy slush but getting soft for sure, even north facing runs were soft by 3pm Looked like this all day :lol:

DAMN THIS PLACE IS BIG! You really could spend 5 or 7 full days skiing or riding here, I only spent 1. 9:15 am and a chilly start to the morning, took Riva Bahn Express lift to the northwoods express lift to access headwall ridge. Warmed up on all the groomed bowl runs like sleepytime...

thanks for the info EMSC, the food was really good at the Peak 9 Restaurant. Also thanks for the Vail info, I plan to use that on Monday :P

Picked up about 1" or 2" the night before Mostly sunny all day long and it warmed up nicely to around 30* Took the gondola up to Rockey MT Super Chair at 9am Hung out in the peak 7 and 8 areas for an hour or so, nice blue groomers were ride'n fast with a little fresh snow on them they started...

Whats up Dank? you are right on man! From the local NWS in whitelake/detroit "Snowfall Totals for the 2007-2008 Season Continue to Climb Towards All-Time Records Across Portions of Southeast Lower Michigan Snowfall totals continue to pile up across Southeast Lower Michigan. Locations along and...

I am staying in the Breckenridge area for a week and plan on driving over to Vail for a day of skiing midweek. Since this place is so massive, I like to concentrate on the "back bowls" area of the resort. Where would the best place to park (I don’t care how much it will cost) to access the...

That should be on a T-Shirt, I would pay $15 ;-) :lol:

We picked up about 4" around metro airport, my friend in Brighton said about 4"-5" on the ground out there. I hope by Friday they get that air port cleaned up to get you out of there Dank! I fly out Saturday March 8th for 6nights in Summit CO. Dank, I recall you saying it snows after you...

Sunny skies and 38* made for some good spring skiing at Mt Brighton. 3 chairs running, about 80% of the area open. Had part of the challenge open, off the side of the yellow lift, fun steep run. Snow is predicted to fall tonight and Tuesday. We might see 2-6" of new snow. 40's and snow/rain by...

Thanks for the good weather link CO_knuckle_dragger, that blows away all the sites I have been going to. Pass along some reports mtngirl, I am going to the same areas as you starting March 3rd, and like to see what you get out there. Have a safe trip! :D

That is some ski trip you are about to take, best of luck on your adventure. I can comment on Homewood/Granlibakkken. Homewood is worth the stop, but Granlibakkken is just a single rope tow that might be a vertical of 300ft. It's mostly for sledding. It's fairly close to homewood, so you might...

The weather was just like Squaw the day before, Sunny skies, no winds, and about 45-55* at the base. There was really no need for a coat as it was just too warm. Parking is never fun at Kirkwood on a Saturday, I arrived at 10am and I was about a 1/2 mile from the base. The bus system moves...
