i just haven't been motivated to post this year since it's pretty much been the same stuff :roll: just about everywhere except stowe and jay, from what i can gather by reading the boards.
cat on wed was epic.. we hit it at the right time and got lucky.. they got around what they said... i think they said about a foot .. it was probably 8 at the top. some posted a few weeks ago i think that the lower part of the hill had pretty much no snow.. that was probably accurate as the lower part of the lift line remained closed on wed. if cat closes something , u know it's legit , unlike most other places :roll:
it was blue sky till about 2 then it started to spit snow... temps were about 40 at the base and just at 32 at the top.
2 basic lines down.. star line and lift lion on top and middle third to catenary or y;ou go skiers left and hit the groomed trails. it was heavy dense powder for sure.. but it in this pathetic season ( except for that lucky dog powder freak up in von trapp ville ) it was epic.... star line was skiable for sure with soft fresh all the down to the middle third. no real bump lines at the begining as bumps ususaly require snow, and they had none before the storm. one for the books for sure . and of course, there was no one there :roll:
logistics put us back at WV on thurs .. wv shuts it down on sunday apparently :roll: ... like cat , there was no one there :roll: the lines of MAN MADE SEEDED BUMPS on old techumseh that purist :roll: mad river glen renson took a shot at a while back were the order of the day. ( hey renson- how have the all natural bumps been at mad river the last 2 weeks :shock: :roll: oh yeah that's right , they closed :shock:.. been swinging the old 9 iron lately dude :roll: ) WV looked like it got 4 or 5 from the storm.. this set up the lines on old Techuseh perfectly. we had a crew of 4 smashing hitting them hard. nice and chily temps kept the snow from getting too too mushy. set up our flags on the middle part of old t to try and get a line working but there really wasn't enough of a base to form them up.
i can't wait for this " winter " to be over so we can finally start doing some real skiing in july :roll:
