Won't be skiing off the roof top, but I will be skiing off my back deck down the 80 foot 37 degree hill tomorrow morning. Can't skip out on work :sad: but I can at least creatively go get mine the hard way. Half a dozen laps should wake me up pretty good Ski Ashland from last season.

THAT'S GREAT!

Looks like Mt. Washington valley and Sugarloaf are the winners from this but I may be wrong???

Burke Mt so far got 16 inches of love. Flurry activity is supposed to "pound" us throughout the day. Expeccting another 1-3 according to our dear local forecast chick. Sweet conditions all around up here in NoVT. Come on down!!!

So Sugarbush is reporting 21 inches and Mad River 10-12. There's no way both of those things could be true, is there?

If I had to guess, based on what I'm seeing in the valley, I'd probably split the difference, say, 16ish?

We wound up with 4" of snow and heavy freezing rain last night with about 0.4" of ice accumulation. It's really pretty up here this morning, but the roads are treacherous.

We ended up with 16 inches! Just got back from Loon, and well, as they say, it did not suck!! Gotta go to work now

Kind of a mess for SNE, but still an impressive storm:

Can't speak to SB's report but I was at MRG yesterday and think 10-12 was generally right except where wind stacked it higher. As I mentioned in my TR, the snow seemed especially deep on Fall Line, though that may have been in part because I sampled some of it firsthand with my face ;-) .
