Once that funk gets in the boot its pretty tough to get rid of. Have you tried new footbeds?

It wasn't related to snowmaking, I was mistaken on the date of the rescue. The incident happened on Friday afternoon. I was there on Saturday and the snowmaking fog was as bad as I've ever seen it. If it had indeed happened on Saturday then I could have seen the fog being a factor.

The photographs are cool but don't really demonstrate what it's like to be skiing or riding in it. Here's some from a few years ago

Yeah that's my mistake. I got the article in a text thread on Sunday morning and didn't read it well enough and assumed it was from Saturday. And if the kids hiked up instead of taking a lift then that's definitely their own fault but that wasn't mentioned in the article so... My original point was about the snowmaking haze/fog that these new High E guns at Cannon can cause at times. I'm not talking about cloud cover or even the traditional gun spray that freezes on your goggles as you ride past. The fog/haze that these guns create is very distinct and if I had to guess, it probabl

https://patch.com/new-hampshire/across-nh/two-snowboarders-lost-whiteout-cannon-mountain-rescued Call was received at 5:40 about two missing snowboarders. They weren't rescued until 10:20 PM. They were found wet and freezing on the backside of the mountain after getting lost and disoriented on their final run of the day. While it's probably a bit hypocritical for me to bitch about Cannon making snow, this "whiteout" condition was caused entirely by the snowmaking system. The visibility yesterday was probably less than 5 feet from about a 1/3rd of the way up the mountai

Classic. They wrote in their report Saturday afternoon that they were going to focus on making that cat track better and somehow it's worse.

Good luck with the app. How do you plan on supporting it if there's no ads and it's free? Is there a premium version? If so, what features are not included in the free model? Also is there an option to export GPX files? No offense but if a largely used app like Trace couldn't survive I wouldn't feel comfortable using a somewhat newer one if there's a chance I couldn't retrieve my data if you were to go under...

Ranger Rick must not have noticed

Certainly seems like some mountains are scaling back on their operational costs.

Cannon says no open fires so I'm not sure a firepit would fly.

Here's the updated spreadsheet. Pulled all the data from OpenSnow. Some mountains weren't showing as updated since the grinch storm so perhaps not 100% accurate Mobile Friendly Link- https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CA8qaLqnIetYJGRtmcws8rhWgw_F_4p_dOjFEuMb8AE/edit?usp=sharing Pre-Storm Post Storm Resort Name Trails Open Percent Trails Open Trails Open Percent Trails Open Net Change - Trails Killington Resort Vermont,

Here's the note from their facebook. Pictures of the damage below. Luckily no one was there. 2020 can't end soon enough

The Magic web cam is depressing

Interesting to see how everyone has done up until now. These counts will surely be dropping after this Xmas debacle. Not sure how this will format on the board so here's a direct link to the Google Sheet https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CA8qaLqnIetYJGRtmcws8rhWgw_F_4p_dOjFEuMb8AE/edit?usp=sharing Resort Name Base Depth Lower/Upper Lifts Open Total Lifts Percent Lifts Open Trails Open Total Trails Percent Trails Open Okemo Mountain Resort Vermont,

Hit Cannon today. Probably skip the weekend wit this current forecast.
