Re: friday 11/17 report (not k)

cool thanks for the report. OKe is on my radar for sunday.
(now moreso)
i too admitted as much on the expansion thread ;0]
the novelty of skiing has given way to a desire for room and continuity.
and the ability to break for lunch at the car without missing last gondi up (as i did on my day 1!)

Re: thursday 11/16 report

hate to have to say this but considering okemo (first time ever) as too many memories of the partial north ridge are giving me mild ptsd. temps do look good for t2b weds or sooner(?)

Re: Vermont skier visits 2022-23

^^ well, not too bad considering it was a mostly disappointing season, with too few snow-in-the-backyard events that get the more pedestrian and vacation skiers out. the biggest storm of the season came too late for those already moving on to their spring activities. this skier's visits were up 11 f...
