Nope, no free parking that day. They are even planning on using the empty lots at the end of Page Green road.

Just got this email ---- good move on their part imo

On race day, 3/4/17, there will be a $10 Cash Only Parking Fee/Vehicle, required of all cars. Skiers and boarders can park in the ski area open lots that lead to the Adventure Center. There will also be overflow parking in the open lots by Page Green Road and Chair 5 Lot.

Each car will be given a $10 off voucher to use toward your 17/18 Season Pass. We thank you in advance for your patience and participation on this day.





 Sincerely,

 Greek Peak Mountain Resort Management

It was Valentines Day and all

Bout time you lightened up and got the hell out of that damn political thread ----- I've given those things up, they're bad for the soul ---- anyway, nice to have you back on your A game ScottyJack   

Anyone skiing today will be in for a real treat ---- light fluffy LE pow

Looks like the lake effect is still going on.  Should be a good day today!!

Oh hell yes! Today will be killa ---- we got another 2 - tree of LE POW last night and is still snowing now.

I got 35 miles of full on white room riding in last night ----- stretches off full blown, to the bar, wide open POW surfing  

Conditions at Greek were sweet today!  I arrived to a 2 to 3 inch coating of light powder as the lake effect was winding down.  The area was 100% open (except for the terrain off of the top of chair 2 which was closed).  All the trees skied great with only a few bare spots appearing near the end of the day.  Chair 5 was open with 6 or so inches of fresh snow.

I saw a guy with a yellow helmet and no poles over there who was doing a lot of fast laps through the trees.  I headed back to chair 4 after several runs to hit Zeus and Labyrinth which both had great coverage.


There was plenty of knee deep powder to be found under and along chair 2 in the trees.  I finished the day lapping Olympian which was in awesome shape!

Heading back for more tomorrow.  Its going to be like a spring day with the temps expected to approach 50!

Hmm, yellow helmet and no poles? Wonder who that was?

I may be there in the am

Had great morning getting a fix for my tree jones on, lapped ronnies/aesops, laby, and 5 woods until 11:30. Best snow , ok coverage on labyrinth.


Lunch and bevergae break, good to see ya cornhead!

Did a few miles at Kennedy sf, lots of sleds out but I guess camp was working.nt every day you can ski coverage this good in a t shirt!


Nice day to spend in the woods

Hope Lake Lodge as seen from the snowmobile trail on friday night

I was out of town all weekend for a Brad Paisley concert but I was told the skiing was bangin

Sadly it will be coming to a rapid end

Skiing Friday was some of the best skiing I have had up there in years!!!  Saturday was beautiful early, and hot later, looking forward to a strong snowy March.

WOW!! What a crew they have beginning to setup for the Spartan Race.

This will be good for Greek Peak and everyone involved. I hope everything goes smoothly for them.  

Pass information is out for next year:

Greek closed today due to the weather

Hows the Spartan race set-up coming?  Good thing not today....Sat seems colder but dry.....many water holes (for the race, not on the ski hill)

It's truly AMAZING!! The crew, the machinery, the obstacles, the place looked like a beehive with worker bees when I drove thru yesterday. It's gonna be cold on saturday for sure, looking like a high of low 20's. I don't know how many water holes there will be. I wonder if they'll use the crick??

I heard the number of participants is up to 4300, which would lead me to believe there will be 8000 or so peeps hanging around. One thing will be parking. The ground isn't frozen and the field they have for planned parking will be one giant mud hole. Think I'll sit down there with my truck and chain pulling peeps out for 50 bucks a whack

I hope everything goes smoothly for them. It's a big opportunity.

Actually, I'm staying as far away from that place as I can get ---- it's gonna be a zoo!

I'm helping my buddy boil sap that day  

ugh we will be there - booked it awhile ago for our first family gp ski weekend in a few years. I think the girls signed up for some spa stuff or something Saturday afternoon. maybe i just have junior drive to some micros!
