A few of us are looking to ski Laurel Mtn, PA on Sunday February 18. We may ski another day at Laurel or hit another resort on Monday, depending on conditions. JimK and @LaurelHillCraze are onboard and at least some of the Crazie family. Long time ski compadre, Marcus, will bring his near 60 years of smooth experience. Perhaps a few other former gathering attendees and 1st time ever Laurel visitors from the ‘Burgh may show, some with family in tow

Although not an official gathering as in days past (there is no slopeside lodging to host midday lunch social and apre-ski gathering spot) we all could meet for the day at Laurel. The lodge allows brown bagging and we can huddle over a few tables or if the weather is nice, the outdoor courtyard. We can even lunch alfresco at Midway if you are willing to ski with pack down to the old lodge. The building is locked, the structure has been stabilized but it is not safe for public use….perhaps one day.

Laurel Hill Crazie and I have lodging on the Ligonier side of the mountain. There are many restaurants and convivial watering holes to meet après in town. Something much more rustic and private for Sunday apre-ski night can be arranged too. If conditions are marginal, Seven Springs will be a good option for Monday, there still should be good amount terrain open there.

PS: Laurel Mtn is one of the premier crowd-beater mountains in the entire Mid-Atlantic and should be very mellow even on President's Weekend. Let us know if any questions.

If your holiday weekend is not set, meet us at Laurel Sunday Feb. 18.

Here is Laurel's signature expert run, Wildcat both Upper and Lower with a side excursion on skier's right of Upper Wildcat in the natural snow cover on the old T-Bar line.
