Hmm... those don't look like NE bumps... where are the deep troughs? Where are the rocks? Where are the random jagged shapes? Why do they look so ski-able?
Where did you really get that pic?

Note the bare spots on the trail across, the fog which is related to a liquid event lower down or nearby, the heavy clothing. It certainly isn't Utah. Either the bumps are still softish or they rock jard with a skim coat. Cascade gets good traffic so they might not be rock hard. However the overall grade was C+, so it wasn't nirvana or many laps would jave been made.Hmm... those don't look like NE bumps... where are the deep troughs? Where are the rocks?

Dreamy turns on Cascade a couple of days ago under the guns. They have been letting the snow drain since then. Should be back to it’s normal groomed state in the AM. Those bumps were a soft carving delight. The trail in the pic with the brown spots that @James made mention is Lower Royal Flush one our natural snow trails. It shows the snow loss on the non snow making trails and woods.Hmm... those don't look like NE bumps... where are the deep troughs? Where are the rocks? Where are the random jagged shapes?

Everyone is well - funky weather of late - snow, wind, cold, rain, freeze - typical New England. You will have a good week once mountain ops does some necessary grooming and refreshingIt's been quiet here, everyone okay? We are driving up for a week tommorow.
Killington has a bogo deal in the form of vouchers. You can find it in ski magazine or linked when you do a google search. Think the link is usually live sometime in October for the coming season. One BOGO voucher per email address so if you have a few email addresses then...... You just buy the daily walk up rate and you get another ticket for free. Walk up rate is usually $90 in early December so it works out to be $45 per ticket. The dates for these usually have a used by date of mid December.

So in your suggestion I need six email adresses to get a bogo voucher for each of the three days? Then my wife and I purchase two tickets each day and it’s @ $180 / day for four tickets or $540 for 3 days. That sounds reasonable to me.Killington has a bogo deal in the form of vouchers.

I know there's a separate thread on grammar pedantry, but nevertheless -
The acronym you're scrabbling for is BOGOF "buy one get one FREE" , not bogo, which means "buy one, get one" . Also known as just buy one.

I wasn't scrabbling because it's still BOGO regardless of whether the F is after the BOGO. It's still buy one get one aka BOGO because you buy a lift ticket (BUY-B, ONE-O) and you get another lift ticket (GET-G, ONE-O) so regardless if the one is free, half price or whatever. Still buy one, get one.
Ha, how's that for pedantry!!!!
I worked in a grocery store for several years, and that chain had all kinds of BOGO deals that they advertised like that - "64 ounce Mott's Apple Juice - BOGO", etc. And it was buy one get one free.There's no such thing as BOGO, except just as in " buy one lift ticket as normal"
It only becomes a thing when there' s a qualifier after the second "one".
Maybe he just doesn’t give a F.( sorry I couldn’t resist the silly response to your silly comment).I know there's a separate thread on grammar pedantry, but nevertheless -

What a useless debate, and waste of precious Internet electrons.
