Skiing Thanksgiving Weekend (2011)

Who got plans?  What's your thinking about the long holiday weekend coming up?

If you are skiing ... what mountain, what days?

Turkey thursday and god willing skiing finally on Friday.  I usually start out doing a half day the first few days to break the legs in and a full day on Sunday

Waiting and watching...too soon to tell.

If Belleayre is open, we're hitting that up. If not, it's an overnighter to Vermont Saturday into Sunday. Probably Mount Snow. Now this is the true test...lets see if the new significant other can handle this addiction...haha

Turkey and maybe sunbathing..

don't be a kill joy weather boy

Just the truth ..lol

i've got a new pair of sticks , so i'm hoping for cold too..but i want more than 2 nights worth..

We're having Thanksgiving in North Creek and then if the conditions permit, probably going to Whiteface on Friday and Gore on Saturday, or vice versa.  If skiing is out, then we'll try some hiking around the area, and shopping and skating in Lake Placid.  Things have been unusually warm down here in Long Island - 65 here yesterday - I hope it's a lot colder up north.

Thanksgiving skiing usually sucks. No WROD for me. I would rather spend my money in March and April.

I was hopeing to hit up Gore Sunday, but family stuff came up.  Taking pics of the grandkids for Christmas cards. She is starting skiing this year at 3. Her moms not happy

I'm going to see the latest Warren Miller flick the Thanksgiving eve in Syracuse. Free lift ticket giveaways too..for Gore, Sugarbush, Swain and Greek Peak.

I already made a trip to ski the WROD on a beautiful sunny warm day last week. Hope to ski again soon, but it will unlikely be this weekend.

Coming up for wed Thurs Fri and sat.   Hope to ski Frita and sat with Lange and my girl Grace.  

I guess I'll be at Gore on Saturday . . . Depending how that goes, I might be there on Sunday too.

8inches of fresh and still coming down heavy.   I'm thinking this will be one of the better opening days in a while.

with a foot new i wonder if they can roll boreen and some of the other less rocky trails and get them open

I'll be there Fri, Sat, Sun

Face lift open for sure Friday…Gondi still to be determined…12 inches and counting…877-SKIFACE for updates…it’s go time baby.

Just curious, would think the challenge would be the bottom,  therefore if FaceLift open, why wouldn't t2b via gondi?
