I guess that is bad if you are on the mountain today, but probably a net gain for the base, correct?

Most importantly: Does this mean they will mow down all the bumps on the mountain to get rid of ice coating?????????????
Sounds like Mount Snow got the rain/freeze combo. I'm headed up this afternoon. Trail counts were down today, but were probably realistic. It appears that they kept opening more trails/mountain faces as they had a chance to groom them.

I'll look tomorrow and post in the afternoon, but probably a better day for some high speed GS turns than bumps.
