After last Saturday at Jay, I have to be skeptical of that. Lots of hype, big storm, lots of news coverage, new snow, etc. but Saturday was abnormally uncrowded at Jay. I am not familiar enough with historical trends for this type of weekend before Christmas, but if last weekend was any indication, people are waiting to get new gear on Christmas before invading Northern Vermont en masse.

I am better on this myself and getting my last turns in before the NCP and Range Rovers hit.

I'll be kicking off the holiday week at Sugarbush from Dec 21-Jan 1. Likely mix it up with a few days at MRG

Has anyone arranged a meet-up for SB or MRG on Sat.? I'm likely ending up at Sugarbush, but I don't know 100% and it's mostly not in my control. If I end up at Sugarbush, I probably would be at least starting off at South, but I could make my way to North for part of the day if necessary.
