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: Expansion
nobody's bitching about the lack of nature-made snow? i'm not a (disappointed) passholder, so am happy to be simply be getting turns in when no other options exist, and paying more for day tix for 1.5 ways down than i typically pay all season, save a pow day or two at brom. manmade is a sort of mira...

Re: Stop saying "Howdy Beast Fans" in the report.
no worries about devil worship, but the word fan suggests spectator. other than when the WC is here, the customers ARE the show. K could use the word denizens and correctly address their customer base as the participants we are. i was ok with howdy...i often use it myself. and i for one am happy. no...

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...

Drove down the NY Thruway earlier today from the Berkshires down to NJ. It was like a scene out of a post apocalyptic movie. yup, it's been looking a little too much like the earth scenes in Interstellar lately. thankfully r*in is coming. hopefully reaching the sources of so much smoke unsettling i...
