Easily the best post this year. Bears are so decorative and fluffy.

It is the Woodward Reservoir along Route 100 between Okemo and Killington, just north of Amherst Lake and Echo Lake.

This weekend might be the last ? Lots of rain and warm temps in the mid-mountain forecast…

Ouch...I was gonna go get my last day this Sunday now that the weather looks good but that coverage looks ugly.

It was melting rapidly on the weekend. there's still a lot of snow they can move around but the groomers are going to have to work some magic to patch everything together. The skiing was good when you could see the bumps. I'd expect either the stairs from the peak to the canyon or the triple if there's still snow on kilink. The canyon loading area was rough, maybe walking on the lift. Sundays probably it

Sigh, last week was the. time. to. go.

Video and pictures from yesterday look terrible. I'm sure they'll fix it for the weekend, and then maybe open on Monday, or possibly the following Saturday (but that's a stretch), to beat out Jay for last to close. They usually do a final day with walking and cheap tickets with the proceeds going to a local charity. We shall see....of course Jay could do the same for last to close.

If you think the pix from yesterday look bad, check out the photos from today:

Ooof...looks brutal. I saw some other pics from today as well on Facebook. This spring has certainly not been kind to skiing...

 

[machski]

Ehh, just open the Peak Walkway both directions. Works early season, why not this spring too? In between, looks like plenty of snow off the Canyon Quad, especially if they farm what they can from outside of that.

Only need it open going down, the walkout from the canyon is an easier hike than going up the stairway.

Sunday or maybe even Saturday will be the final day with walking

Maybe, but I don't think they will let Jay beat them for last to close in New England. Walkway, walk to the snow, hike out the run-out, or up the stairs this weekend. Or if they go longer than Sunday, up the triple and walk to Eastfall. We shall see. And Jay hasn't ruled out the following weekend.

There's going to be a few more inches of rain by the weekend, it's melting fast
