Notes from the Purple Chair: February 2014
http://purplechairlift.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Notes from the Purple Chair. Friday, February 14, 2014. Advice From the Purple Chair: It's Live! This morning I watched Olympic skiing live for the first time in my life! Due to time differences and the popularity of skiing, the networks tend to save races for primetime broadcasts. The downhill races earlier in the week were broadcast 19 hours after the race started! I saw every racer and had no idea what would happen. It was great! See http:/ www.nbcolympics.com/results-schedule. Nub's Nob Ski Area.

Notes from the Purple Chair: January 2013
http://purplechairlift.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Notes from the Purple Chair. Sunday, January 27, 2013. Hill Names: Duck Soup. Did you know that a pintail is a type of duck? Pintail Peak at Nub's Nob was named after a boat owned by Walter Fisher. When the land was acquired a lot of names were bandied about. Pintail Peak had a really nice ring to it. When naming the hills, the resort tried to stick to the wildlife theme: Goosebumps, Whitefish, etc. What did they decide upon for the long, flat hill leading back to the area? Duck Soup of course!

Notes from the Purple Chair: Why We Ski: The Picker-Uppers
http://purplechairlift.blogspot.com/2014/01/why-we-ski-picker-uppers.html
Notes from the Purple Chair. Wednesday, January 8, 2014. Why We Ski: The Picker-Uppers. It is an Olympic year and with it come the commercials. Here is a great one honoring Moms and all they do to pick us up. We owe a lot to our moms, dads, and teachers for helping us to get up and keep going, especially in our winter sports where there is a lot of falling down! Falling makes us stronger!

Notes from the Purple Chair: Opening Day!
http://purplechairlift.blogspot.com/2014/11/opening-day.html
Notes from the Purple Chair. Wednesday, November 19, 2014. Usually I don't like the opening day of ski season. Mediocre snow and too many people on just a few hills. This year is going to be a bit different! Nub's Nob has received over 30 inches of natural snow so far this winter and will open with over 30 runs on Saturday, November 22! Ski ya' out there!

Notes from the Purple Chair. Sunday, March 25, 2012. ChairTalk: The Season That Was. Or "How about that Christmas when it snowed 80 inches in two days! Now we can talk about the year it was in the 80's for a week in March and there wasn't enough snow for Mardi Gras! For now I have cleaned out my locker and hung up my beads, and I remind myself that next year's skiing and celebrations will be twice as sweet! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Nub's Nob Ski Area.
