Literally my biggest gripe with Gore. Post an accurate trail report say around 7 each morning that reflects what is actually going to open and a snowfall total. If there are delays note them. If they did this a big chunk of my gripes would be gone. Not kidding

Saw the new lodge is "soft opening" this weekend and with the restaurant starting next weekend on the 16th.

I have not and will not under the current ownership of Lab and Song. Not giving him my money no matter how little

Skiied Greek last night for the $26 ticket. Lots of crazy high schoolers and college age kids but conditions were excellent where you could avoid them. Which was pretty much everywhere but the base and Karyatis. I'm sure they are happy with the turnout given the crowd that showed up. May go back...

Was better out there today IMO than yesterday. Lapped the lower mountain to start and everything skiied pretty well. Did a couple Topridge laps next and it was very nice before heading down to the bowl. Backwoods was great again today. Moxham was ok. Echo opened as we were looking to go up top...

This guy filmed me skiing down Rumor a few years ago when he was re-recording it because he didn't like his original video. Nice dude. Ended up skiing a bunch of runs together. As far as my report from today. Ok to meh early then quickly became a skiied off skating rink. Pretty busy as well...

I have to point this out, not that it's a surprise, as Song and Lab ownership are terrible. It's a new low though to not report what new snow you've gotten and exclaim it's piling up and look out the window. Then say lake effect is highly variable. So variable you can't go out and measure it at...

Got about a foot and a half here in Baldwinsville so far

Another stellar day. Wild temperature inversion 0 at the base, 37 at top of lookout around 9 AM. Stuck mainly to groomers today on account of my back and Summit never opened until I had to leave to get home before the freezing nair started (not sure why summit opened late either). Very busy, and...

Stellar day. Blew my back out first run on Northway which wasn't stellar but managed to tough it out and after a few groomers was able to ski through it and get it loosened up enough to make it manageable and do more fun stuff. Groomers off LWF were great early, Cloudspin and lower Sky were...

Also mentioned the new lodge isn't open. When's it opening after this push to get the ski bowl open so early? I'm not skiing this weekend based on the weather but I'm curious since they pushed for the bowl to open so early. Would be classic ORDA to get it open with the interconnect and the...

Agree. I heard some scuttlebutt there's an issue with the mid station that with the bars down the chairs don't clear it and that's why it's not open but could just be lack of help as it's early. Apparently the staff from South America aren't up yet and because of that they don't have enough...

Good day today but busy. Definitely busier than yesterday. The Santa's definitely descended on Whiteface in force making for some longer lines on the gondi and crowded trails at times. Conditions still held up well though despite the traffic. They got maybe an inch after lifts closed yesterday...

I never waited more than 5 minutes at the gondi when I rode it. I did singles but still. Longest wait was at the bell and I waited maybe 7 minutes. Not sure what the lines were you speak of unless you weren't in singles which that did get long at times. Maybe I just got lucky with timing of my...

I thought about posting this article too as I read it this morning before heading out to ski over coffee. Can't argue with it as they have so much open and so much snow. I'd argue they should blow Skyward before Hoyts. I like Hoyts but Skyward IS Whiteface and getting that open should be a...

All I can say is what month is it? Whiteface was off the charts good today and it feels and is skiing like mid-late January. Conditions were excellent all around. ROTDs were Northway, Mountain Run, Lower Mac, Cloudspin, Niagara, Victoria, and Lower Sky. Cloudspin and Lower Sky had soft soft soft...

Thanks for the summary and in depth explanation! Totally makes sense

They've blown the summit though in prior seasons without this. I feel this is not a problem with the snowmaking system as much as it is with the staff to run it which was the issue last year. Last season once they brought the head of snowmaking up from Belle they got there S*it together and...

I'm skiing WF this weekend for just this reason (plus more natural snow). Did Belle last weekend. Was great. Could have done Stratton this weekend as I have IKON too but WF>Stratton if Cloudspin is open which it supposedly is. Mountain Run is open now too. Gore just wasn't worth it compared to...

I bet it was awesome today. I've always loved Pico and am happy to see the money they've put in. Visitation may go up some but I'm sure it won't change things much.
