The mountain picked up at least six to eight inches of snow today and the afternoon was full of free refills

Anytime you hit a firm patch of snow, there’d be a pile of powder somewhere shortly after. This made the skiing a lot more fun than if it’d just been firm everywhere!

By the time I got to Whiteface after work, all of the primary upper mountain lifts had closed for the day due to wind.

I think I skied the greatest artificial snow ever this afternoon at Whiteface. If you’d told me it was deep natural powder I would’ve believed you.

Two cold ski days in a row. I’m on a streak!

The cold temperatures must’ve kept people away, because the place was empty!

Skyward is long, steep and it was used for the women’s downhill during the 1980 winter games.

Today was Day 50 of my ski season and it was a great Thursday at Whiteface.

Unfortunately, I left something in the lodge as I was leaving, and that’s left a sour taste in my mouth for the day as a whole.

Conditions this afternoon at Whiteface were a mixed bag.

Today wasn’t a powder day at Whiteface, but there was snow in the air. The mountain probably picked up an inch or two of white gold this afternoon while I was there.

Today was gorgeous. The sun was out, the sky was very blue and there were some clouds hanging around, which added to the beauty.

For the 3rd day in a row, Whiteface dealt with strong winds that caused significant wind holds.
