I just got back from Snowshoe about an hour ago (via Amtrak if anyone is interested in my whole train story) and it was pretty gnarly yesterday. Well, we didnt even go skiing yesterday even though we paid for it. It was pouring rain yesterday morning and we just said forget it. It rained every day since Monday at least for 4-5 hours during the day. By Wednesday afternoon, there were MAJOR bare spots on slopes that were kept open for reasons I know not. So, its good to know that they were able to crank up the guns. Although I will say I probably picked the ABSOLUTE worst week to go skiing. But I got my 12.90 ticket from White Sulphur Springs to Manassas....

Kahuna, How's you get from White Sulphur Springs to the Shoe? Do they have a shuttle?

SS cranked up the guns today at 2pm. It sounds like things should improve greatly.

I checked 7 Springs webcams and they haven't cranked up the guns yet I didn't see anybody skiing? Are they open?

I'm from Charleston, SC, but I go to college in DC. Some friends from home drove up and picked me up at the train station in WSS, and it was about an hour and a half onward to Snowshoe. It actually worked out pretty well, except that they had to leave a day earlier than expected, forcing me to stay in a motel in WSS by myself on Thursday night. No shuttle unfortunately.

I see youre from Centreville. Im here in Centreville until Tuesday at some relatives.
