They've dropped the totals a bunch since you posted, most places are 3-5" less.
I don't know about that.

SNOWS ACROSS THE TUG HILL.
Hum, I'm supposed to be off Friday, maybe Thursday would be better? I can't take tomorrow off, my boss is off, our department consists of the two of us. I don't think SR is steep enough to move downhill in that much snow.

22" as of this morning and the lake effect monster is still sitting there. They're calling for another foot+.

Bump, Snow Ridge is claiming 40"...AND IT'S STILL SNOWING! You'll need a rope tow to go DOWN the hill!
Just saw that! I have a friend driving up to Ski VT with me this weekend and he says he is making a stop at SR on the way.
40 and still snowing!!

Um, no. Snow Ridge is only 500 ft of vertical. It's got decent pitch for a small hill. I skied it last year after a foot of snow, and that was pushing it, pretty slow, it was awesome though, fresh tracks all day. Like Huck said, there are some steep, short trees to be skied, but according to NOAA, there could be 20" more by their opening on Friday. Five FEET of snow! I think they may have to groom the trails to make them skiable. I doubt the woods would be skiable with 5 ft either. Huck, what's the most snow you've skied there?Is it steep enough to ski deep snow in?)
I can't imagine what the roads are like in that area. Huck It, what's the closest mtn with decent vert? Or is there not any?
