West of Pats Peak we probably have 8-10ish inches total - 2 of which are heavy and wet that fell overnight - along with a period of sleet last night. Hopefully areas west and north of us fared better. This will be a good base-builder for sure. We will need it. Temps next week are not snow-preservation friendly...

Like the areas of Crotched and Whale back? How much more can I twist that arm of yours? Lol

Just don't twist the right one, please! That shoulder still hurts!

We are sticking to Pats. I will try to get the family out the door ASAP in the morning to get some skiing in before the masses arrive!

Magic, Mountain Snow, and Stratton look like the winners. Quechee reporting 22". The Crotch is reporting 8-10' snow drifts. Anyone know how The Whale made out?

We got 18 inches at my house in Enfield, I live about 10 minutes from Whaleback, I work there and am heading in between 9:30 and 10:00. They ALWAYS get more than me, so we probably got close to 2 feet.

I've got 10ish here with about a 1 inch layer of sleet with another inch of wet snow on top. Snowing lightly right now and we're supposed to get another 3-6 Sat night.

I went to Wachusett last night. Couldn't get up earlier and have to work today. It was sleeting by the time I got there, it was skiing nice but had either been skied out or groomed. I stuck to the bumps on 10th for the most part and they were skiing pretty well.

So at 5:00am I only had 4 inches of new on my deck. Not enough to bother skinning up Burke. I went back to bed. woke up at 6:30 to a white out. By 7am there was over 8" on the deck. I decided to get a quick run in at the Lyndon Outing Club (450' vert ski hill in town). I'm glad I did. I started skinning just before 8 and got to the top at about 8:15. There was over 10" of new snow at the top. I hit a couple of steep trails that hadn't been open or groomed yet this year so I had well over a foot of nice powder. I wish I wasn't swamped at work or I'd be at Burke this morning.
