Third to Open in North America!!!


The Mountain I have a season's pass too...
Normally they open around Thanksgiving or later but this year really is something. Here is the latest from their snow report:

Good Lord God!!!
Okay, hold on to your boots! We are opening trails left and right up here -- we forecasted 8+ for the weekend...it's now 24! Yep, 50% of Wildcat's terrain! The snow is better than you could possibly expect! It's soft, powder/packed powder mid-winter snow conditions! No lift-served beginner terrain available. Tomcat Lift only. Lift open: Sat.& Sun. 9am-3:30pm. Restaurant/Bar Services Open! Adults & Teens, $39; Jr./Sr. $25. And of course, your next day is only $25 -- as always! The Adult/Teen price is a little more than Friday...the additional unexpected open terrain is WELL worth it!

Exxxxxxccccccccccccccelent...I was in VT this past weekend and took the dog for a walk on the trails I usually bike on...covered in snow. It had warmed up and the snow was melting, it felt like the freaking spring. Crazy weather...

PRAY FOR SNOW!!!

Timberline at Mt Hood opening today.

Crystal Mt in Washington opened yesterday. They said earliest opening in 30 years. From the pictures on the news, it looked deep!!!

What is the deal with all the east coast places opening up before the west? I left Tennessee, Ski Beech, and Sugar mtn for Utah and now we have no snow and weather that is just starting to get cold enough to snow. This sucks. Oh well I still have my bike.
