It was -12 thismorning if it were 40 degrees warmer it’d still be freezing. Id say that’s plenty cold. Supposed to get a couple inches of snow tonight/tomorrow and possibly a decent storm Wed/Thurs.

Magic is awesome when there’s a good snow season, definitely some old school narrow terrain and great woods skiing.

good to hear on the tight woods skiing, I’ve been snowboarding all season and I’m to much of a bitch to go into the real tight woods on it. Any trails I should check out?

If you find your way to talisman stop just shy of it and enter the woods between talisman and sorcerer, its not a marked run but youll see tracks going into the woods, great glade with good pitch. Also if magician is open its a fun one, its kinda short but good and steep with a double fall line. Black line and Red line (the runs under the two chairs) are also pretty fun in good coverage.

sweet looking more along the lines of the first thing you mentioned, mostly ski at Gore and there are tons of sick “trails” like that with good steeps, some cliffs, and lots of trees.

Yeah they have an open woods policy so you can ski anywhere you want so if you see a line in the woods you wanna ride its fair game.

Skied Pico today, the “sidecountry” was amazing.  
Top of the old poma line

 ![http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_102853.jpg](http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_102853.jpg)  
Looking up the Poma Line its about as wide as two ski lengths  
 ![http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_103250.jpg](http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_103250.jpg)  
Once you get about half way down the poma line you can duck into the woods  
 ![http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_103515.jpg](http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_103515.jpg)  
Then you work your way down this skinny bastard  
 ![http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_103813.jpg](http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_103813.jpg)  
The light at the end of the tunnel  
 ![http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_103941.jpg](http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_103941.jpg)  
Yup the snow pack is good  
 ![http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_104231.jpg](http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_104231.jpg)  
Untouched perfectly spaced woods  
 ![http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_104240.jpg](http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b28/skierdood/IMG_20110129_104240.jpg)

You can pretty much ski the entire summit portion its a pretty sick line and its not heavily skied so the snows always good in there.

Tomorrow should be a fun drive to South Troy.

Oh:

> Right now, the main focus is on Tuesday’s event, but early estimates could put overall totals from the entire storm anywhere between 15 and 30 inches of snow.
