Will be up tomorrow (tues) they asking for avy gear?
They were open today. No avy gear required, but they were requiring groups of 2 or more. I thought about heading in, but it was really socked in on top and I decided not to. I spent much of the morning in the CloudSplitter Glades. They were UNBELIEVABLE!!! Seemed like 4 - 6 inches of new snow in there since Sunday afternoon. Some of it may have just been blown in from the trees. There were untracked lines all through there all morning long! I'll try to post some pictures in another thread.Quote:

Just look at the responses here and you can tell people are stoked at the possiblity.....that's a good thing.
Some cameras have a snow setting.....but you prolly already knew that.

Awesome pics!!
x2^. You guys are so lucky to have Face as your home mtn! HPD...you're spoiled. No wonder the CT crowd gives Face crap, they're jealouse.
Wonder if Andrew will have a celebratory ski day with ya'll now. That would be a lot of fun.
Anybody feel enough sympathy for the rest of us to create a Slides Photo folder here?
Had a great time today. #3 was real fun, 2 was also good, never ended up doing 1- looked pretty well skied. What a great spring day at Whiteface.
SV glades are major double fall line, lots of room to mess around in the valley though, fun.
Also had a fun time on the boarder cross
Face, those are just awesome pics, thanks! :D
Gotta get up there this season, really wanna hit the slides.
Shot this too, though fair warning ... it's a little "jumpy"!!!Quote:
