Whiteface Conditions (2017 - 2018)

if that Top Shot is hi-rez it's all white across the entire bottom it could work as another website hero image. maybe I can't tell from my phone for sure

Sweet shots.

I’ll email it to you right now

Thought this was a cool pic. Was on a snowshoe hike with my wife this afternoon, well known area in town with nice view of Whiteface from the back.  There was a bunch of snow in the woods...almost looked good enough to ski

I had one of the first tracks on skyward, it was ok I thought the snow was very sugary and when you skied it you would create a mini avalanche of small ice balls.  My runs of the day were mountain run and the other run on the right was great.  I lapped mountain run at least 6 times, did skyward twice, the second time wasn't as good as the first.  Also that trail to the right of mountain run if you took that all the way down it was great.  Overall it was hard pack very fast groomers and was great all things considered.  Was on the gondola at 8:30 and skied straight with a few warm up breaks till 1pm.  Very good day.    

No lines today on any lift I was on literally never waited, all lifts were spinning that I would go on

That's funny if you go straight in those trees are gladed.

Noah John was SOOOOOOO right.

Funny thing is Noah John doesn't have to be right he just usually is

That's on my run/ski walk route. Go past there every day. If you go straight in from the position you are taking the picture from there are a few lines.

Oh gotcha - yeh I was thinking maybe I need to ditch these snowshoes and go grab the skis! I’ll have to check it out another’s time.

Slow shoes are painful. Tenth mountain division and light plastic boots are the way to go up here

anyone been to the Face since last weekend?

Daughter there now. Says it’s empty except for some racers. it’s groomed fast and fantastic.  I am so jealous    Lapping skyward and Victoria.  

Don’t get me wrong, I like drinking, but the rest of the skiing fam is enjoying fast groomers.....and I’m more upset than I thought I’d be!

See that little white sign on the bar in the corner of the pic.....I think I’ll go for that Bulleit Flight next to ease my pain!

What happened bro? Why no ski? Did I miss something?

Badly sprained ankle.....still too swollen to stuff in the ski boot.

This helped....



That 10 year Bulleit Select is good stuff!

Even not at the hill I had to deal with the hill......someone walked off with my son’s poles.  I don’t want a call like that while I’m drinking!

Can't be all bad with pond hockey for entertainment

Sucks you can't ski bro

I’d rather play, so watching pond hockey only makes me more sad.  This is better a better way to pass the time....
