my dad and i skied at sugar on sunday. the morning was fine, we mostly stayed above the mid load point. at lunch time there werent many people out then at about 1:30 or 2:00 all hell broke lose and the whole base area was a massive group of people. i waited for about 20 mins at the green chair, im guessing the yellow chair was at least 30 or 40 minutes :/ anyway, we didnt make too many runs after that because even the midway was about a 10 minute wait. The snow was fantastic and there was a lot of it, the woods had at least 15 inches in them, some areas was more like 20+, most everything is skiable, this would be a great time to ski nc BC near the tn line, just sayin.



I did ski under the green chair and pretty much tracked it out myself. they got 4-6 inches of snow on saturday which was unexpected for the most part and it was super light fluffy snow that was great to ski untracked.

my conquests. I lapped under the lift 10 times or more. deep snow too, never hit bottom.

Nice pics...i had a friend up there sunday but i couldn't make it. I live down the mountain and the view from here on sunday was beautiful. It was so clear, you see both Grandfather and Grandmother mtns covered in snow! It had to be one of the clearest views i have seen in a while. Wish i could have enjoyed it in person!

Seriously? I still cant believe you didnt ski the top liftline. That's the best shape I've ever seen it. I am very disappointed in you.

I know when you're sarcastic. If u hadn't have already been givin me crap for it I would know you arent serious. there is a lot of stuff under the snow there that could cause hurt, and i didnt feel like dealing with sugar patrol

Those pics are pretty sick. I don't know what is up with this Skiatlanta cat, but he/she seems kinda like a jerk.
