Loon has done the uploading/downloading on the Gondola for at least the last few years. When they say 10 trails it really means 3. Picked rock, flying fox, and bear claw using East Basin to get back up.

I'm a big fan of South Peak. I love the lodge, and parking there is so much more convenient than having to hunt down a space between the Octagon and Governor's lodges. The terrain there is mildly entertaining at best, but the new trail they're cutting looks legit....and I will say my friends and...

Thank you for posting that video. It completely changed my outlook on distracted driving.

Around 3:20 AM last night, I was woken up by some of the most violently loud thunder I've ever heard.

With 3 legit trails, the trip over to South Peak won't be as painful. On a cold day, I can't stand sitting on the Tote Road for 5 minutes each way with the wind in my face just to ski 3 trails, and that's assuming Ripsaw is open. 2 more trails and the trip will be completely worthwhile.

The Garden must have been absolutely rocking when Satan scored that goal...even the TV camera was shaking! Great game.

It was a lot more than 10 days early this year. It was the first March here I can remember in a long time without any snow besides only a dusting.

I only got 3 powder days this year, which is not nearly enough. Way too much spring skiing / skiing in the rain. The only really good stretches of this year were last week of December - first week of January and last week in February. Jan/Feb were only mediocre in my opinion. December was about...

Loon did not get 11 inches. I was there monday and tuesday. From my observation, it was much closer to 6" at the summit, with 1-3" as little as 100 feet down from the summit. It was very wet, sloppy snow, as you would expect from this storm. the bottom got 100% rain with some nasty bare spots to...

I was there yesterday (monday) and today. Loon really took a beating from the rain this weekend. bottom half got a lot of rain. lots of bare spots. above Grand Junction or so it snowed. the web site is claiming a foot of snow. don't buy it. it's closer to 6 inches at the very top and 1 or 2"...

I had it all...braces 4.5 years, pallette expander, and mulitple retainers. I still wear a retainer every other night. My parents had 3 kids in braces at one point. I think all together they paid about $10k, with insurance covering roughly 20 percent, but that was 10 years ago.

That top image is unbelievable! How often is it that NYC and Long Island have snow on the ground and Boston and Portland don't? Also, NH really got the shaft of this storm. Bummer. Scratch that....they got the shaft of the year.

Research paper. It's going to be a long night for me. Reading this thread is pretty comforting though!

At Sunday River last Saturday, I was pretty surprised at the lack of snow. The only reason it was OK was because of the incredible amounts of snow they made up there. Otherwise, hard pack or thin cover. From what I've seen online, I think VT is better off than Maine right now. Maine hasn't...

Right now, it's looking like Philly, DC, and Baltimore will all beat Boston in snowfall for the winter. That's pretty crazy considering last year, Boston got about 60 inches and those 3 cities together probably didn't get half that. Probably not too far off of Concord, NH either, and way closer...

I agree that it is steep but boring. On the other hand, the two new trails below Ripsaw look sick from what they have so far. Much narrower and twistier.

It feels like March or April here with the damp, mild air and the diminishing snow banks. 13 inches of snow is now down to 1 or 2.

I think they try to keep as many cars off that road as possible because of all the condos and homes along it. The South Peak side is all new and very expensive development, and the Loon side is older yet still private nonetheless. I would imagine the home owners don't want Cadillac Esclades...

A lot of it here has melted already after 8 hours of rain. I hope it's staying cold up north.

They just delayed a third time back to Friday Dec. 11.
