Hunter was very good today..better than expected and colder than expected..uncrowded..blue skies..lower K27 had great bumps as well as upper xover..north side was firm and fast..clairs ..did not open.
But skied till 3 and had a good day..

Darn, I was scared off of going there on Epic due to the wind forecast and the detachables, went to Catamount on Indy instead (30 minutes closer drive) and they opened an hour late because the rain ended later there. Many bare spots, but skiable.

A suprisingly good day..I thought the runs that were closed would stay closed..but once they warmed up..lookout and Racers opened which made it a little more interesting

Could more bad skiing possibly be captured in any single photograph? Wow. Snow looks good though.

That would have been race team (?) or more likely just ordinary folks with their kids. You could count the kids in ski school today on one hand and have plenty of fingers left over.

There was a lot of them, maybe. They were all with the school.

models are starting to concur on a nice weds-thurs system and a big one sat-sun.

Just happy for the cold. Sunday River snowmaking on overdrive right now. Should be pretty nice no matter natural snowfall, any of that will just make it even nicer. Should be a good MLK weekend as it looks right now. Maybe not stellar, but I'll take it!

The NWS forecast is pretty good for Northern Vermont. It's a probabilistic forecast so you can also find the 90% and 10% forecast to figure out some measure of forecast uncertainty.

This is the median forecast (50% chance higher, 50% chance lower)
