So I figured there was a fair amount of nsers from the area who will be traveling up to hv/kb. If you are just post up in this thread for the winter. Maybe majority of us can get together and ski.
I know there are a few other threads about hv or kb but just let them die and if you're going post in here!

They may have snow but I'd check the webcams. Peek and peak is having a jam this memorial day with real snow. I'm going to hang out cause surgery but people should go

that seems pretty official with the KB logo on it. How often is KB going to have that air bag there?

Yes,I believe they widened Moonshadow to make more room for their boardercross track. That run would be perfect for a park though.

Any rumors of Holiday's opening? All I know is everybody is asking. Maybe there's somebody who works for them that may have a clue? This weekend I'm hoping.

I was down there on Saturday. I was desperate and hiked yodeler and got some ok tracks down. Snow making everywhere. My friend went Sunday and they were still blasting. Maybe this weekend?

i believe my first day of skiing on the third saturday in december, and they may have opened up the mid week before that. i remember because that is always the weekend of the demos. however, last year sucked, and the forecast right now is looking the same way. two years ago was epic, and the year before that i believe they opened around thanksgiving.

Does anybody know if you can upgrade a pass at HV? Like from a Friday night season pass to a weekend season pass (If there is such a thing). And is there such a thing as a weekend season pass? Because full season passes are real spensive. Thanks.

I'd imagine they wouldn't object to you spending more money. Give it a shot.

Is that a hiking deal, or do you have to get a lift ticket? Im guessing the prior.
