Yo, so a buddy and i deceided to take another trip out here while we still can. We'll prolly be here til sunday if anyone is in the area. We'd love to have someone who knows the mountain well show us around, or just explore. Hit me up!
Fuck yes! Haha we just booked 3 more nights. We ll be here til mon night or ties morning. I hit a tree on Everglades goin a good 20mph. Rode away from it, but this mountain is kicking my ass haha.
yeah, I'll keep an eye on that. I think I'll likely head there this w/e to enjoy nice snow at least "ONCE" before season's end! All we had here was ice for the past 5 weeks or so!
BTW, how are the parks there, Well maintained? Do you have to pay for access or is it free?
The parks aren't great. Jay is known for the glades not the parks. Upkeep is better this time of year than it is earlier in the season though because we have less powder days pulling the park crew away from the parks and searching for freshies (although Saturday was actually a powder day) Spring corn in the woods is a great way to spend a day.
Turned out to be yet another fckin awesome trip. Thanks again for showing us around and the photo sesh mystic! You can expect us back asap hahah. P.s. now that I understand what your forum status means, it makes me giggle
Please do update mountain conditions. I'll be going there next weekend and/or after (1st time) since resorts here will be closing and snow is will likely be gone (with rain coming next 3 days).Cheers...
Can't argue with you there, Wildcat is still in good shape as well. The weather Saturday was a 10/10 (finally timed it perfect). My only reservation doing it later in the season is hiking out. Almost got to the Summit, but time and exhaustion were becoming an issue, so it was nice to descend close to 4K vertical right to the truck. The lip seemed steeper than in past years. I may be talking out of my ass, but it felt closer to 50 degrees than 45. Enjoy the rest of your season, and I hope to see you guys up at Jay next year.
Anyone here going this next weekend? I'm driving from Montreal Saturday or Sunday and would be nice to ride with ppl who know the mountain and not spend 1/2 day trying to figure out all the trails. 1st visit to JP BTW. cheers...
Awesome! I'll PM you later in the week. It'll likely be Saturday.
I have not been out riding or seen snow since almost 3 weeks!
Should be nice.
Cheers bud...
Looks like no-go this w/e to JP!
Weather calling for light rain Saturday - Monday and little on sunday (though forecast says sunny)!!!!
Also, seems to be only 3/8 lifts and 37/77 trails open.
Bumer cause I really wanted to try JP before putting the season to full wrap... oh well... maybe next season!
Mystocfalcon... I'll let you know if I have a change of heart (possible) for Sunday! Otherwise, r**n check for next year!
Its only supposed to rain early AM tomorrow. then the PM is the pond skimming.
Im not sure about conditions but it still looks pretty snow covered from here. I havent been up the last 2 weekends though because I was on a cruise.
If you miss some awesome conditions I will be sure to let you know
haha... don't tell me "after" I miss it! That would be brutal Myst!!!
Seriously; can you post how it is tomorrow (if you're going)? If it looks good, I may just come Sunday.
Looks all cloudy from here so far, but you never know.
I'm still up for the drive if it's worth the trip.
Keep me posted.
Cheers bud and hope you had fun on the cruise...
Today was great, absolutely beautiful weather and conditions that were much better than I had anticipated. While there are definitely bare spots, there are a surprising number of good trails and the snow itself is mostly very fast, wet granular. Here's a short clip from today showing one of the better, and one of the worst trails, condition-wise. We had so much fun we decided to stay for tomorrow
Here are my pics from yesterday. Mostly pondskimming but some ridding too. Facebook Album
They are still uploading right now but they should all be up shortly.
