For anyone heading up 91 from the CT area this evening, as of about 5:30, it's currently dry roads and 43 degrees on my car thermometer in the Northampton area. Easy ride until you get what looks to be roughly 1/2 way up VT or start climbing up into the spine of the Greens

If we didn't stop for gas in Deerfield,MA and Fliet O' Fish in Bratt...it would have been about a two hour drive door to door. Very smooth sailing, But our road is in full Mud Season mode. Welcome to the 5th season!

Great day at Stratton!

Erhh, I mean half day, as I didn’t get there till 12:37. But great 2 1/2 hrs nonetheless!

Snow was dry and fliffy. Frequent refills by the wind.

I think I made the right call not going up last night. People on the chair said morning snow was wet and heavy. Not much fun. And as all but one of the upper mountain lift were on windhold, the line were insane. But by the time I showed up, the lines were gone, snow dried off...luckily me.

Wow - what a great day. Had about 3rd tracks on Yahoo, then Yahoo bump side with thigh deep drifts, cathedral brook was great, then when the gondi opened untouched powder on dot rebel. Peekamoose>esopus(sp?) was a blast....

Just a great great day....

Mad river skiing great. Single chair closed, but I’m hiking and getting deep first tracks every run. Shocked that it’s closed but I need the hike practice for silverton anyway

Hiking all the way up the single side?

Everything but a couple glades. Dream catcher is listed as closed. I never looked over there to see if it is poachable. Was having to much fun on the trails to even worry about it.

Too funny. Was talking to a local this morning. Another came along and started telling this story. I showed him the post. It is a small world!

Conditions are awesome at belle today, gondolas been walk on for singles all day, temp rose fast though, I’m sweating my dick off out here

kingslug · Mar 24, 2019

Insane crowds at Stowe until 230...

Glenn · Mar 24, 2019

Really good day on the hill at Stratton today. Conditions were really good late morning into early afternoon. Things got a little soft after that, but still good. Hit Kidderbrook Ravine for a little tree skiing. Comfortable temps, manageable crowds; a great day to be outdoors.

Speaking of the other kind of trees....lots of folks lighting up out in the open these past few weekends.

Yes, it was awesome, both today, and yesterday. Half price with BOGO Saturday, free with my Greek pass today, season's pass holder day. A hell of a lot of great skiing for $37.
