I just checked the site

Quote:
The 2008-09 winter season will began at 9 AM on Thursday, November 20. The 28” snowfall the resort received on Sunday/Monday coupled with good snowmaking temperatures allowed the resort to open a week earlier than the target date of November 28. This date is the third earliest opening in Holiday Valley’s 51 year history!

The Yodeler Quad Chairlift and 6 slopes opened from 9 AM to 10 PM on Thursday and Firday. Skiers and snowboarders will be able to choose from one beginner trail, two intermediate trails and three expert trails. The resort expects to open additional lifts and slopes by the weekend. Tickets prices for Thursday are $35 adult/$30 jr for 8 hours, $30 adult/$25 jr for 4 hours and $20 adult/$15 for night
I am going to call tomorrow and see if the rates will be the same for the weekend.

Be careful driving thru we are getting lake effect big time and it continues thru the weekend. The 90 coridor between exit 33 and 41 will generally be the worst for that is where the wind is blowing

So my buddy called me @ 8:30 this morning and we hit up Holiday today. Only one lift running but the slopes were pretty decent and zero lift line. The workers told me by saturday the main lift will be running also and I belive them because there is snow all over the hill. We shot a few closed runs, you know for quality control purposes of course. As soon as any more lifts start up it'll be full rate they told me, which is like $54, and that should happen friday.

So I learned 2 things today: 1. I'm out of shape and kicked my ass. 2. I know jack shit about riding lots of powder, infact I disliked it quite a bit. we found a run with a good cpl feet of powder and it sucked...

If you guys do go saturday hit me up. Carm you have my celly, toss me a txt or gimme a call. And anyone else just throw me a line on here. I should be recovered by then and I'll problly be down to go also.

Default rub it out...

Click here...


I'm such a pig about powder that I hit that pow stash madly by myself for two hours straight till I collapsed in the parking lot. It felt like the muscle ripped off the bone. I had to unbuckle, roll onto my back, raise my back leg, and rub it out for 5 minutes. Yes I'm out of shape. (I've been hiking for the last four days)

Ok I have cifex, Kri$, twinplanks and bobepfd's cells. Right now it looks like Sunday because I dont think Twinplanks can go tomorrow cause of the dog. If he can go then we will be there Saturday. If not I am planning on going out Sunday am. If I leave Syr at 5am I will be at Holiday by 8 is what I am thinking.

As soon as I find out I will post here. Keep posting your photos like ur doing

And yea more snow is coming right thru the weekend I will post in here once I find out from Joe what his deal is
