Fireworks for the opening night of the World Cup.

Women’s World Cup race day one. Started up at the mountain, moved in to the lodge, then back to the condo to watch the 2nd run on TV.

Killington on Sunday afternoon with my son on the way back to UVM.
Was a bit concerned it was going to be a mad house with the WC race going on but was pleasantly surprised.
Did a few laps in the popup park and some top to bottom runs





Spent the night in Warren at a friends place then drove down and skied for a few hours at Stratton.

Monday at Killington was good, did a short morning session before heading home. Of course they got dumped on Tuesday.

Drilling up some new sticks!

Thanks to the recommendation from @Norm we're going to Banff! 12/28 - 1/4! Its snowed 50cm over the past few day so hopefully it continues.

Will be back in Vermont for a few days next week at Sugarbush/Killington if anyone is going to be up there.

Does anyone ski Belleayre, Gore or Whiteface at all? Those are the normal spots for us with a Mount Snow and Hunter day drizzled in when its not busy at Epic locations.

Sugarbush did not disappoint today.

Dust off your members only jacket

Windham Mountain to be mostly members-only

A letter lays out plans to turn the publicly-accessible ski resort into a club mostly reserved for those paying for a $175,000 lifetime membership.

So since my ikon pass is still good at windham...are they building a separate mountain for the "members"? They are going to love being on the lift with us Ikon pass scum 😂

First day of the season up at Tremblant. Probably the least amount of coverage we’ve ever seen up here. Conditions are about as you’d expect.

 

[TheGerd]

Killington certainly can use some snow, or at least cold temps so they could fire up the guns. But still better than working. 😁

Im at gore pretty often

Any weekend storm hype here? Was thinking now that IKON is good at Blue/Camel back of going Sunday morning and taking as many laps as I can before it's a zoo.

Having a pass makes it way to easy for me to go for a few hours and then duck out when I have to wait more than 10 mins.

Camelback was pretty epic on Monday....Pow all over the place 🙂


But it was nice getting back on my skis for the first time since breaking my ankle. And the new lift is stupid fast....like 2min 40 sec to the top....when the family went in to get some lunch I knocked out 8 laps.
