Cool thanks... looks like they updated the snow report. No park, but at least we know now.

Hi Win,

What lifts are going to be open this weekend on Lincoln side? I checked the snow report from today and it lists SuperBravo and Heaven's gate open at 9, and then says all others open at...

For sure, I'm probably heading up there regardless. Always like to get some hike-to terrain cause there are just that many less people..

Steve,

What's the prognosis for weekend of April 28 then? Will you expect any repairs to be completed on the Tram or at least minimize possibility of damage in order to open up other lifts?
...

Stratton closed Sunbowl after last weekend if that affects your decision at all. Not happy about it myself, but I will be heading there on Sat as I have a $25 ticket voucher.

Epic Pass pricing has come out.. Stowe is not yet part of the pass.

They also claim to have gotten 8" over the week, so I think conditions will be much better than last weekend.

Guess I just convinced myself to go too, c ya there.

They are 100% open so if their natural trails are open there's a good chance the woods are too. Might be up there on Sunday as well, before they get r#$ed on next week.

Can't find any at the moment, but this is an example of an old deal. Keep an eye out they might do it again:
...

Its a great lil place to stop on your drive up to NVT. In the past they had deals for $25 lift tickets which is so worth it even if just for a couple hours.

Boundary to boundary skiing, et is...

I was up there on Jan 1st as well. They were one of the only places accepting a ski-vt pass on the first, so Bonus! The 9+ inches overnight just topped off this ridiculous holiday storm cycle. Et...

Am thinking of using one Friday. Will report back. I surely hope it goes smoothly.

Lake effect squalls piled up overnight Friday night all along the Green Mountain spine and continued for most of the day today.

1st day out for the year and I was thinking...

Thanks Scotty! 10-12 is a great start. Now just hope the upcoming weather systems pull through.

Bumping this to see if anyone knows how much snow Plattekill got over the recent storm. I might head up there this weekend to earn it its worth it. R@&n is coming tomorrow, but I hear there is...

Cool!! No platty definitely deserved someone placing a call to confirm. The original webpage still has it on there, but have to be sure...

Just caught wind of this deal while browsing. So what is up with the sale date? Thats the only day they will sell the pass for the $99? Its really a great deal for Platte and maybe hitting up...

Posted from a stowe rep in another forum on Weds:

Today was a sobering reminder that the woods and backcountry just aren't ready yet. Historically, the benchmark for the woods and backcountry in...

Krusty,

We shared a chair on sat and I have to agree w everything you posted. Such a nice surprise waking up at 330 am to see the lake effect snow on the radar reaching all the way to southern...

SkiVT 5 packs sold out already. Wow they went fast.

Sunday was incredible! The sun really did its thing and everything softened up so well by mid morning. Its great to see your pics as I stuck mostly to the other side of the mountain.

Got there...

Glad you enjoyed the mt, I've always held the notion that Platte is very similar to Magic as well.

To fill out some more Catskill stoke, here are some remarks on Sunday's pow fest.

Best conditions I've _ever_ seen on the mountain. Although, while barely noticeable, it was also the most crowded...

Fascinating, takeaway for me is: Huge Lake effect snows. ;)

There is THIS:
