Cannon just announced their closing date, April 14th.

This extended by a week over the normal. We should see the desk jockeys as lifties the last week. JD was out bumping chairs last week, too.

It might be useful to post these closing dates on the AZ forum. I'm going to try it out.

This is the best spring since I can't remember when. Imagine, many areas not even announcing closing dates. I wonder how the attendance has been? Great, I hope!

It's not just a single dump, but ongoing, for the most part sustained cold (hard to imagine I was skiing in fresh pow yesterday!) If we cross our fingers, there might be another dump next week. I'll be happy if the temps just stay low. I think my SO is losing her patience with me

Agreed. But the big(ger) boys are open later than I can remember. The projected closing dates are here http://www.onthesnow.com/new-hampshire/skireport.html (nh example, you can query for the remainder.)

What!? They changed it! My last day of the season will now be next week! :grin:
I love procrastination!

I was lucky enough to talk with who I think was the mountain operations manager at Gore during the storm on Tuesday. They're planning to make snow and he said they'll be open till the 14th-15th, but if the weather continues to work in their favor they could go to the following weekend.

Waterville, April 6

It looks like Mt. Peter in Warwick, NY will be open all week and their last day will be Saturday 3/30. I think breaking my leg was the cause of this great late season.

Hey don't take all the credit...:-D

You're right, you deserve some credit too, I forgot.

Belleayre had plenty of base and good conditions yesterday. All natural trails and a lot of glades open. Getting to April should be easy.

I think it was announced before the season even opened. Both Mt. Ellen at Sugarbush & Pico are scheduled to close March 31.

Nashoba closed today, although they may reopen this week... still plenty of decent coverage on the hill!

 

[billski]

Burke is mulling over the idea of staying open until April 14th.

skied Mt E today, coverage was insane, they will likely close with 100% terrain available.
