time for public flogging of resorts that misrepresent the truth and kudos to those that play it straight.
Nominees?

This isn't good....

Wednesday, March 5th Report: Wildcat will be closed for the day to preserve snow pack. Will resume operation Thursday with t.b.d trail count and grooming schedule directed by the next 24 hour weather window.

FWIW, the snowpack in my yard (southeastern nh) is in pretty good shape. I think it's wise to leave the snow alone when it gets this wet. I guess spring skiing has begun.

The upper elevations at Sugarbush were excellent yesterday, including the trees. It was actually dumping snow for an hour or so around 11 am. Even the lower elevations skied great early in the morning when it was just sleet. The surface got slow and sticky at the base around noon when it changed to rain for a brief time. I hope to be up at the summit (Lincoln Peak) early in the 9 am hour this morning. My guess is the ungroomed at the upper elevations will be good today. Will probably need to stick to the groomers down low. It looks to be a calm bluebird day today. I'll post a TR later today of course.
