Hello fellow skiing enthusiast. How often have you wondered about conditions at a ski center and have been hesitant to believe the reports posted on the internet? Do the terms "firm but edgable" and "thin cover" make you shudder with dread? How often have you made a long drive after believing a conditions report only to be completely disappointed and disenfranchised by the reality of what you have found?
Conversely, when have you discovered fantastic conditions under reported by the Snow Liars?
There are also many great places to ski (state parks, school trails, etc.) which are not well known except by locals. These places can also make you the Snow Liar and post reports.
The idea/purpose of this blog is for anyone to post what snow conditions they have found at any ski area. How accurate were the reports generated by the conditions reporters aka, Snow Liars at the areas?
In addition to helping skiers find the best snow available, another intention of this site is to help skiers find the closest snow to their base of operations. With fuel prices climbing and the threat of global warming having the potential for making skiing a historical activity this Blog should help us drive less saving fuel and the environment.
Also, please don't badmouth an area if the conditions reports are much better than reality. Please post what you, the skier, found at an area along with a synopsis of the area's report. If an area is really great and accurate let us know. If an area are true Snow Liars fill us in too but don't use this Blog to rip them a new one.
If users can post under an areas heading or name it will keep things a bit more organized and useful. Please check the date of posting and skiing to be sure the info is up to date. While the internet is an anonymous place, please sign the posts with some handle preferably your first name but it's up to you.
Thanks for checking the site and ski fast ans safe. Kevin
