The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

Doesn't really matter since you don't ski.

They can try all they like, if they have no snow they have no choice. Now with saying that, I think that most will make it to the first weekend of March, some won't.

I def think everyone will try to make first weekend in March. Sugar / App being the last two to remain open. Although I feel Sugar has had a harder time dealing with the warmer spells than Beech this year.

As much snow as Beech has been pumping last week and counting - they've gotta be able to maintain a week or two into march. White lightening was either open or getting poached hard on Saturday night. They had no machines blowing on it at the time though. I saw at least 25 people going down it.

I was wondering if they were going to try and open it. Man I wish they would...

Poaching it would have been fun though.

You really think they have abandoned the meadows as well? Hard to tell by the cam but it looks groomed.
