Much more than a ribbon

Post by shortski »

Pictures of SuperStar May 21, lots of people were hiking for turns, excuse the poor quality these were taken with a camera phone.

This picture was taken from the Basin Ski Shop Parking lot, as you can see it's top to bottom, only minimal walking down the first 15 ft of the head wall, would have been nice if they had been open this past weekend. Lets see if it hold up for next weekend for you energetic hikers/skiers.
Cogito, ergo sum

Sometimes it is that simple.

Thanks for the photos Shortski. Coverage looks great. I just hope I have enough energy to make the climb a few times.

I can't believe with all that money and energy they spent on making that snow they just let it sit there and melt. It is absolutely insane.

It is a real shame..

Holy shatzee-- can't believe I said that. 1918 would've never said anything like that. See what happened when the Red Sox won the WS. It's over!! :lol:

I am just sorry that I won't be able to go up again after this weekend since our place is rented for 3 months. It looks like there will be skiing available into June if you are willing to hike.
