With the snow just beginning here, I’ve opted in for the breakfast today
I'm a bit worried for you that you'll be too spoiled for the rutland comfort inn or manchester econo lodge after this weekend. Don't get hooked on that high thread count and gourmet breakfast.

Bravo and VH a mess.

BUT HG is now loading.

Have fun.

Already over to snow 200 miles south of Sugarbush. Not sure if the cold trend will be a positive or negative as far as total QPF in the north.

Heavens gate chair is..kaput...the rowds have arrived
It has been up and down like crazy. I lucked out earlier and got one of the first few chairs after it started loading after it reopened the first time. It was ski right on and no one yet realized it was open again. Ripcord and Lower Ripcord were pretty sweet with the powder that accumulated while it was hold. Of course it was back on hold again before I even made it down RC!

That wind is really starting to pick up though...

Was on bravo just before it closed. Chairs swinging in the wind. Same for VH. Rare to see both shut.

Looks like HG just re-opened (again!). I managed to get one of the handful of chairs that loaded the 2nd time it opened this morning (a bit after 11 I think it was). Didn't even make it all the way up before they closed it again...but that run down Paradise was absolutely one of my all time best runs. That powder was DEEP up there. Incredible.
