Here are some crazy ski headlines..

A moose charging skiers, Jay closed because of the cold, Alta/Snowbird closed from too much snow, and an Iron Dome missile launch at Mount Hermon.

I skied at Jay about 20 years.  I've never heard anything like that before.  How about you, SBR?

Who knew that there was skiing in Israel?

I showed up at Sugarbush one day to find out they were close because of the cold..

I knew about Israel for a long time, Powder Mag had a article a few years ago too..

A few's ago while skiing in UT..Alta couldn't  open because of too much snow..

Happens a lot at Alta. There's a term for a state of emergency the town (yes, Alta is a town) declares. Interlodge. Not only is there no skiing,  nobody can leave their homes. Can't even go out on the deck. Has lasted up to 72 hours.

Killington closed last year on a Saturday due to cold.

Jay has closed a couple of times in my memory, for various weather conditions, rain, cold, etc. Pretty rare event though and I can see the safety issue. I skied there one day when the wind chill was -40, it was pretty ridiculous. We'd take a run, go inside and warm up, take another. Got four runs in that way. It was the only time I have worn a scarf while skiing.
