25-26 Ski and Snowboard Thread

Agree on Elk. It’s got an old school VT vibe albeit on a PA scale size-wise. You can also buy 2 and 4 hour reloadable passes so you don’t have to spend more money or time than you want to.

Gore is pretty good today. Got a few inches last night for a refresh. Bark eater glades and straight brook quad glades have been getting lapped.

Few questions:
-Anyone like skis way too tall for them? I’m 5’9” and ski 187-191.
-Am I stuck in the old race era of duct taping my toes for a leaky toe dam?

I bought some enforcer 99s this year and they are 179s... They seem huge... No idea how I used to ski on 195s

Cold in Vermont, but hell of day at sugarbush yesterday, then the snow started around noon at Killington today. Spent all day playing in the woods. So fun

Hope the crowds won't be too too bad at Blue tomorrow 🤞

Not opening till noon after being closed today. I'd assume it will be a madhouse.

Going to try Belleayre tomorrow. Hoping the single digit temps will keep the crowds away.
