Break out the snow dancing shoes. Please keep us posted. How's the boots? Didn't see you Saturday. Took a couple of runs with the gang. Not Willy though. He was too hung over for skiing yet managed to rally for the bar later in the day. :P T-lion almost pulled the save of the year so far. Skied about 50 ft or more on one ski but in the end took a tumble. Thank goodness the host with the most was there to help her up.

Webcam is not a confidence builder today so this is good to hear.

Not the whiteface base webcam but the other placid cams show new snow and that matters. Base area at whiteface is a few hundred feet lower than lake placid and hovenburg. So while base don't look great mid and up should be ok. I think this week will be about preserving what is there, getting some light wet mixed precip with a backdoor cold front keeping temps down at night. Then I think were looking for a real turn to nice winter weather around the 20th. Think temps mid 20's with lake effect.

Anybody see some guns going off the summit?

Was there Sat. Was a lonely ride on the double. Hung out in the snow storm over on Northway.

I was doing the same rounds myself. With the wind and cooler temps on Sat it was often only myself and a few other lone riders on the double from mid to the summit of little whiteface.

this weather sucks. I reserved a house 2 months ago to take my family for 5 days before Christmas, but with the weather like this outdoor activities are shrunk to minimum - no toboggan, unlikely snowmobilling and kids area most like will not be open

If you're talking about Kids Kampus, they will make every effort to have that open and running. Have faith.

We did not loose anything today. The hill probably had a gain. Its 33 degrees they will be turning the guns on by 8 tonight. Will blow all night.
I am hoping for mountain run this weekend. Would not be surprised.
Tomorrow afternoon should be sweeeaaaat

Mountain run would make this guy a very happy man. Only Skyward can let you rip turns on sustained vert like Mt Run can.
