You'll see similar totals between from Smuggler's Notch to Killington and everything in between, with more on the way, so pick your favorite place and have a great time.

I just got back from Sugarbush, we were in the woods all day tons of natural snow. Knee deep powder most of the day. The snow was so heavy at times our tracks were filling in each run. I would say 14+ inches at the summit. It was EPIC!

If you go to Cannon, be sure to post a trip report. I'm really curious how good the conditions will be.
The snow report says that they got about 10-12 inches.

They had a lot of closed terrain. I think that even if they get a bit more - up to 14 storm total or so, the stuff that was previously closed will be scratchy after a few runs - bring your rock skis.
For your sake I hope I'm wrong.

My wife says, don't go to cannon if there's not a diamond open, and it doesn't look like it right now so I'm thinking Bretton Woods.

Any thoughts on loon? My coworker has a coupon, but I haven't been there for like 10 years.

Trip report was posted by someone on FTO today for Cannon.

Dude, have your boots on the GO line at first chair and tell me untracked pow on the front five for the first two or three runs until it gets tracked up is not going to be worth it. Jeez, don't think about it, get emotional about a foot of untracked!

If you go, Bretton Woods is the best bet if wind will be an issue, which it may....

I'd go to Sunday River. 46 trails and 7 lifts for tomorrow. The skiing there last weekend was awesome and with this fresh snow it will be better.

Though it is not huge, Sunapee should be nice tomorrow-it was today. I'll bet you'll get on the mountain for $35. It's about 45 min from Concord, NH.

Yeah, a foot of untracked on top of a decent base IS something to get emotional about.
A foot of untracked on top of frozen grass and rocks? Be sure to stock up on p-tex and pray not to blow out an edge.

I'd pick Sunapee or Loon - they have been laying down some good, old fashion, high water content man made.

I'll take a foot of untracked on top of frozen grass rather than groomers any day. NoVT has two feet of base right now if you are concerned about your bases....
