ORH_wxman Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Will you and MRG ski together? I'm not crazy into glade skiing. I used to test my limits, but I'd have to ski more often than I do now to try double diamond stuff again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 In January? Man they are taking it on the chin in some spots up there. This coming event should do pretty well for the Greens though. Yup, the upper mountain took a kill shot with that warm mank last weekend. You need a lot of snow to open up the sick steeps. They'll be back up shortly. Planning to go next week again.

I used to test my limits, but I'd have to ski more often than I do now to try double diamond stuff again. Just out of curiosity...when did the Euro start the snow..and when did it end the snow? Was it like a migration Thursday night/Friday start in SW New England and then rotating it NE into Maine on Saturday..or does it have us snowing pretty much all weekend?

It starts Friday afternoon and pretty goes continuously until Sunday afternoon. It does shut off in CT a little earlier..maybe Sat night sometime, but its def a prolonged event.

Logan11 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 I drove from ALB up I-87 to past Lake Placid yesterday and the only snow they had was the 1 to 2" from the clipper above Lake George. No snowpack whatsoever on January 4th. In January? Man they are taking it on the chin in some spots up there. This coming event should do pretty well for the Greens though.

Seems like the last 2 winters we've had alot of these long, drawn out events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzucker Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Yup, the upper mountain took a kill shot with that warm mank last weekend. You need a lot of snow to open up the sick steeps. They'll be back up shortly. Planning to go next week again. The inversion really hurt them, with H85 temperatures up to 10C it was off to the races in terms of warming for the higher elevations. Lower elevations actually held onto the snowpack better...even down here there's still a few crusty inches on the ground in most places, especially the wooded hillsides away from town. I drove from ALB up I-87 to past Lake Placid yesterday and the only snow they had was the 1 to 2" from the clipper above Lake George. No snowpack whatsoever on January 4th. That reminds me of when I drove up after the 2/25 Snowicane last year; there was 20" snowpack at my house in Westchester but nothing in Albany and Lake George. It really stopped snowing in the North Country on January 28, 2009 and hasn't started again. I'm sure glad I'm not at Middlebury this year, as the Champlain Valley is doing terribly this year with the lack of SW flow events and clippers. Just no synoptic snows whatsoever up there. That's really sad to have almost no snow in Lake Placid in the middle of winter, just unreal, especially since temperatures have been below normal. I wouldn't mind if the blocking pattern loosened up a bit to allow for some SW flow with just a moderately -NAO to hold the cold air in. That way we could get Vermont and the Dacks a big dump while having a snow-->ice event in NYC metro. I honestly wouldn't care about giving up snow here in order for the areas that need it to cash in.

ski MRG Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 You should ascend Hunter Mountain on snow shoes sometime....to the real summit. I have done that from route 214.... Nice resored tower on top. I checked it out today. 4050' and the highest fire tower in NYS. We were also checking out the zip line network there. There is one pair of lines that cross a ravine that look to be 400-500' up. Looks like a blast. Not a real big fan of Hunter, some descent terrain on the West side but just hordes of terrible , out of control skiers/riders from NYC. Still, had a good time. I'll post some pics in the OBS/Banter thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 HAH Once you either go bald or gray you can probably write off most chicks under about 35. Oh there are always a few that go for the mature looking guy I guess. But it's in my genetics that I got gray real young so what can you do.

Logan11 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 They could have a bit in Lake Placid given their elevation....I was along I-87 and had to go to the Essex County Clerk in Elizabethtown. I would have gone out to L.P. if it wasn't so late in the day by that point. But anyway....they can't have much in Lake Placid. That reminds me of when I drove up after the 2/25 Snowicane last year; there was 20" snowpack at my house in Westchester but nothing in Albany and Lake George.
