DCSki, Re-Tuned<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Good news snow sports enthusiasts, DCSki (dcski.com<\/a><\/strong>) is redesigned. UX improvements include responsive design and friendly photo uploading to the forums<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DCSki has been the go-to for Mid-Atlantic skiing and snowboarding news<\/a><\/strong>, annual pass information<\/a><\/strong> and resort profiles<\/a><\/strong> since the 20th<\/sup> century. I interviewed Scott Smith, DCSki webmaster, in 2012<\/strong><\/a>.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Offseason highlights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Renaissance of Timberline Mountain<\/a><\/strong>
The most extensive overview of the reinvestment by new owner Perfect North. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

DCSki Interview Series: Phil and Tricia Pugliese of Pugski.com<\/a><\/strong>
Q&A with the couple that runs the popular skiing forum site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DCSki Interview Series: Jamie Storrs, Senior Manager of Communications, Eastern Region at Vail Resorts<\/strong><\/a>
Q&A with comms manager for ski areas like Whitetail<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While content like those Q&As and first hand reports are great, it’s the forums<\/a> keep me coming back to DCski throughout the year. The DCSki community helps me figure where I can get my best day on the slopes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Limited advertising<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It’s also noteworthy that DCSki has limited advertising and is not part of an ad network or like Taboola. You’ll have to find out what “big star now works 9 to 5” somewhere else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can support DCSki<\/a><\/strong> and its limited advertising via Patreon<\/a><\/strong> or PayPal<\/strong><\/a>. I do!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What kind of season will we have?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I have already pondered this<\/a><\/strong> and probably will until I’m skiing down a slope. If<\/em> it gets to that point. DCSki is my first stop to keep track of what opens and when.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
