Superstar 2023

[buckethead]

^^ nice pics jonathan and thanks for the encouraging beta when things were looking a wee crappy.
have fun at mt wash sunday. hope you post pics from there as well.

Glad to see that my pessimism regarding Sunday and Monday was proved wrong -- the pictures and video look amazing ...
... and now reopening for June!

Once again I'm having trouble posting a picture (that doesn't already have a url), but I do have one of Mt Washington from Sunday posted here:

I'll wave to all of you again from there on Thursday, should be a great day for skiing at either location!

yea, hard to believe how well we got through this weekend.
but current cam pic beg the question: is the snow getting foamy?

ive heard snow called many things, but foamy is a first. what do you mean?

i believe it was at MRG about 14 yrs ago, it was so hot out that the snow turned to foam. a real delicacy in the rotten snow universe, i'm sure.

Too lazy to create a new thread...

Just want to add that there is enough snow for them to open again. High Road are has tons of snow that could be pushed all the way down to the bottom and all the way up the middle. The top had enough to make a path down the headwall.

they're saving that to farm for a July 1st try

FWIW: IMHO, K made the right call to open yesterday [Thursday]. Lost a lot overnight heading into today, then some r*in this evening and Saturday not looking like a bluebird day of any sort.

I'm surprised you all are not complaining about how more snowmaking pipe is need or more compressor on superstar or more snow being made or something. Wow. Maybe if they hire 50 people with 5 gallon bucks to bring snow over we can open next weekend?

thursday was the right call

Super star melted fast, but I have seen people skiing the patches.

[Big Bob]

looking at the web cam this morning it appears that the last snow patch is now gone.
Edit: Killington posted a picture showing there is still some left as of this morning.

Next year June 1st is on Saturday. Think our chances of skiing in June yet again are pretty good.

yup g.i.s. let's do it again! with all the dripping going on here lately, remembering the spectacular run of beautiful days we had on supe in may - believe we were something like 12-2 with so many days absolutely cloudless. actually amazing how long the snow lasted considering. once again kudos to mtn opps for a great job managing the snow.

Lots of rumors out there about them shutting super star down early to replace the chair , anyone hear anything ?
