I was in the notch yesterday. There were tracks up Gary's and down Avalanche, then a yoyo on Banshee.

When I drove by on Sunday, the Front Five were fast grass. Not sure if they picked up a lot more Sunday night and Monday, but I don't think it is worth it unless they picked up a lot since I drove by on Sunday. Sunday I drove to Mansfield to skin/ski. I certainly would have stopped at Cannon if I thought they had enough. Then again, everyone has a different definition of what "enough" is. Mine is pretty low, though...

I am sure the summit got more but the summit requires more snow to make for good skiing due to more geological treats.

Where were you on Sunday? I was on Teardrop Saturday and there was about 4-5 inches up top. Didn't have my skis but could have made some turns with rocks skis. I imagine Sunday was a bit better as it snowed more.

Sunday I skinned up Gondolier and skied down Cliff Trail to Nose Dive. Cliff Trail was really nice. Nose Dive, not so much. Probably skied a little more than half the vert and down hiked the rest. Lower elevation was melting fast on the down hike.

Awesome. I should have brought my skis up. I was surprised by how much snow had fallen! I went up expecting only the summit to have a little snow but there was snow all the way down to mountain rd in Underhill!
