Sassafrass with a strong tailwind.

Juggernaut into Sassafras is a sweet run. It's also very long. I can ski that whole thing from the very top all the way down to the Skyeship and there's only two or three places that I need to snowplow. One is when it goes under the Sunrise chair. It gets a little steep there by those nice condos. Also on that last little steep part right at the very bottom by the Skyeship base. Other than that, I can ski that whole trail from the top to the bottom without snowplowing anywhere else besides those two spots. I'm def getting better each ski season. Can't wait to ski again this year. Hope it snows soon. Thank you.

Early morning POWDER ride, get to top of Skye Peak Quad and drop in on Upper Needles Eye, hang a right into Thimble and follow the Goni to the midstation. If the base is good the POW ride is awesome.

HEY, even I have PHAT PHINGERS on occasion. Not like I misspelled thier or something. Hmm, how did I hit N vs. D? No, I missed the D, not replaced it "gonDi". Better Mr. Perfect?

where is thunderball?

[SkiDork]

I went with Roundabout.

If you list Thunderball, why not also list The Judge?

[biged]

A couple runs on Devil's Fiddle on a Powder day followed by Needle's eye and thimble, then hit Ovation on the way to the canyon. Finish with laps on Southridge.
Will need to change my ski pattern with the removal of Southridge Chair.

CLOSED, the old Sunrise base lodge on Rt. 100. Been closed for quite some time now. If you go past the Sunrise village the trails are still there. Follow the old lift line to the steep expert trails. Shot but sweet, if the snow covers the weeds and growth.

I felt the need to add to this discussion (quite old) and many other like it -because, hey it's fun and there's no shortage of opinions. Which, I feel the need to emphasis - this in only my personal, unimportant opinion.
