Yup my 1 run through Lakeview Glades was pure garbage. But the summit stuff and Mittersill are deep.

I was at Cannon today. The Cannonball Express lift was closed - I'm not sure of the reason. The rain and warmth of Monday and Tuesday has changed the conditions from nice packed power with some loose snow to white concrete nearly everywhere. Turns could be made and the gooming has helped, but they need some new snow. Crowds were not an issue. The mountain had met their skier cap for the day even though the parking lot was only about half full. No lift line was over a few minutes.

Looks like the warm up that started Sunday has hurt -- everything was open Sunday but now all the glades and most natural trails are showing closed. Not sure if this is due to a refreeze making them too icy, snow loss, or both.

And they already threw in the towel for tomorrow. Closed due to expected wind and ice.

Solid offering at Cannon today for my first day out of the season. 4 routes off the top, 3 down low. Zoomer, Rocket, Gary's and Extension all lit up and will be open soon.

Who would guess that little state run Cannon is doing more for their ski area than the Wealthiest ski company in the world is doing for their 4 NH ski areas combined.

I was there today as well. Wife’s first day of the season so quit early. It was great in the morning. A little scraped off by noon but edges were still fine.

Nice, I hope to get up there soon. Probably gonna be a little bit icy after today's rain followed by some low temps.
