Windham/Belleayre Memorial Day Weekend

It's that time of year again, the season has ended on the east coast and everyone is already struggling. We do, however, have one weekend of salvation in front of us. Windham and Belleayre are once again holding rail jams on Saturday, May 29th. Now, we only have to hope that the huge piles they have saved up survive for the next 4 weeks (Anyone seen the piles? I'm assuming they're pretty healthy). I'll be hitting Windham on my way to Connecticut for a concert that night and I plan on having a pretty huge crew in tow. Who's planning on shredding memorial day weekend? Let's get some stoke going for one more weekend on snow!

Looking really good I'd say, especially for Belleayre. I'm assuming that's hay covering the Windham pile so it doesn't look quite as impressive, but I'm sure it's still pretty huge.

Belleayre begins at 3 and costs $10 to enter. I believe they had the rails open prior to the comp last year though free of charge, correct me if I'm wrong. And I think the Windham jam started around 11 last year, not sure on this year's time.

I poached Belleayre's patch last year, but I think they are holding it down hardcore this year.

yeah it still looks good. but the 10 dollar fee and the fact that it is at 3 will still keep me at windham.

Always has been, I'm assuming this year is no different. Windham is definitely the chill session vibe, belleayre still has a good thing going on, but you get the comp vibe going on as well. All depends what you like, personally I'll be at Windham.

According to facebook it's from 10am-5pm. I don't think they've ever held it for that long however so I don't know how accurate that info is. It is on facebook though, so it has to be true... totes magoats.

Not to be a downer, but why are their piles so small? They had so much snow this winter.

Stupid kids have probably been taking snow for their own personal esssions.  JK JK.  Most likely because of weather?

Yeah, It's been in the 90s the past couple of days, and then it has rained a few times, probably the causes

They should have made those piles way taller. The fact that they are both that long means the ends are gonna melt so much faster.

Windam looks legit guys, I think it is going to be the same as last year.

Don't hold me to this, but I think you guys have little to worry about, looks like windham could set up 6 features solid, plus little shit.

Optimism, that's what's up. Even if they only have a few features up, we're skiing in the end of May and it will be hot as balls out. Gonna be a good time.

yeah belleayre sucked big nuts.  I was there all day and left at like 3, went over to windham.... and shit was closed and they knocked everything down and threw hay on the snow... but left their tools.

we set up a double barrel and just sessioned it for like 2 hours, it was more fun than belleayre was all day.
