Logged my 1st 2 days of the season. Mount Snow had the standard early season loops of Cascade to Canyon and a mix of Long John and Deer Run off the summit, and the the Gulch park over at Carinthia and the Discovery slope in the beginner area open.

Friday was sunny and in the 50's and Saturday was a mix of some drizzle and fog and temps in the upper 30's.

Snow coverage was generally decent with soft spring snow. More thin spots were forming at the end of Saturday than on Friday, but could be easily avoided. Never had to wait more than about a dozen chairs, although with limited acreage open it could feel crowded at times if you were in the middle of a pack of skiers/riders.

Snowmaking temps are supposed to return this evening. Some refreshing of the surface and augmenting of existing bases will be appreciated.

Can't complain for late November with relatively limited amounts of snowmaking time thus far
