More of the same this morning at Sugarbush - sunny weather, no wind, perfect temps and high-speed fun on the groomers, which are still in pretty good shape. Now the clouds are building, so hoping snow arrives as forecast.
Looking for any ideas from those who know Sugarbush as to the best plan for tomorrow morning to try and get at least a couple of untracked runs in (recognizing I won't be the only one with this highly original plan...) The family are taking a day off tomorrow, so I'll be skiing alone, which is good in terms of getting out for first chair, but means the woods are probably not a good idea.
We're staying at Lincoln Peak, so my plan is to be in line for the Bravo when it opens at 8. Any thoughts on what time I should be there to have a reasonable chance of being near the front of the line? How does 7.59 sound? And then any ideas of trails that sometimes get overlooked, once the obvious lines have been hit? I'm thinking maybe going way along the Valley House Traverse might make sense? And then what - Heavens Gate House or Castlerock? (which is mighty bumped up right now), so I'm leaning towards Heavens Gate when it opens.
Appreciate any ideas/secrets that experienced Sugarbush visitors care to share. This is rare possibility for Eastern powder for me, so hoping to profit if I can.
Thanks.
