Resort: Mount Snow, Dover VT
Conditions: Man made, packed powder.
Report: Made it up to Snow yesterday, after partaking in an age old tradition the night before, having Chinese food. Conditions were pretty darn good, with 2 inches of fresh snow mixed in with the man made stuff. Light crowds in the morning, where everything but the bluebird was ski on. Having skied Saturday and Sunday, plus hitting the gym monday - my legs were pretty spent early on... Wasn't able to lap the mountain as I intended. But I managed to hit a lot. Cascade/Canyon, South Bowl, Long John/Deer Run, Thanks Walt, Lodge/Lower Exhibition, and Ridge (twice). Ridge was the ROTD with the fresh snow mixed in with the snowguns. Meanwhile, South Bowl was skied off and pretty dangerous (with the tourists going down like dominoes). All in all a great way to wrap up a ton of skiing over the weekend.
