I decided to try out Mt Holly last Monday, and Friday, and I was suprised at how nice it was...the Mach I Express really made me happy! :-D
On Friday I saw a hardbooter, but I could not catch up to him, I was always 1/2 a run behindhim...just curious if he is one here...

I've seen a few hardbooters at Mt. Holly too.
Me, I'm a softbooter riding a Donek Wide 156 (clear topsheet). I generally ride there a handful of times each season, usually night sessions. Unfortunately I haven't been able to ride much at all this season. I might make it to Mt. Holly once or twice again this winter.
Say hi if you see me!

I've been there a few times this season...hopefully I'll get to go again before all the snow mets :barf:
If you see me, I'll be on a Oxygen Proton (red) 149, with softboots, and a yellow helmet...gotta be safe ;)

I will be at Pine Knob tomorrow morning. I sold off my hard boot stuff a while ago. I will be riding a 169 Donek Wide and Catek Freeride's.

I was planning on going to Mount Holly this morning, but my lil brother who I was taking slept in :(
So we ended up going to the afternoon/night session....BIG MISTAKE! It was terrible there. All clumbs and bumps of poweder, they never re-groomed, even though they closed for "re-grooming"...and it was incredibly crowded.
Still better then not going though :)

Wasn't no better today. I would blow out every time I would lay out a turn. Worst conditions I have seen all year.

BShaw - Sunday a.m. was way too soft at PK so I left around 10:00 but came back around 1:00 p.m. on my 4WD. Conditions improved as the top surface was a bit firmer on the 1/4 mile plus the light was better once the sun broke. Stayed for about an hour.

I wish I lived close enough to do that. We left around noon. Any ideas for this weekend. It's going to be warm, I was thinking Blue Mountain. Temps are supposed to stay around freezing up there.

Mar 6th - went out for an hour at 5:45 and the conditions were firmer than all day Sunday. There were very few people there. This weekend, will probably stay at PK but would like to go North at least before the fat lady sings.

I'll be at Mt. Holly tonight, from about 6-9.
Can't say I'll be the best company, though. I'm trying out some Flow bindings for the first time, so I expect I'll spend half the evening futzing around with them.
Send me an e-mail if you want contact info.

The weather isn't going to be too good :( Low of only 34!!! Count me out... Hopefully we'll get a major blizzard next tuesday (2 for 2 lift tickets day) :)

I was up at Boyne Highlands today. Conditions were better than I had expected. The day started icy, softend throught the day, but still was not bad when I left the hill at 2.
Debating on going up again next weekend.
