Any Southern NH Reports from MLK Day?

Would like to hear how So. NH skied on Monday. I see numbers up to 10" for places ranging from Gunstock, King Pine, Crotched, Ragged and Tenny.

Would also like to hear about their grooming policy on a pow day. Do they flatten it all out right away, or do they wait. We've enough base right now that they could let it go, if they wanted to. I think you know where I'm going with this......

Add one for Pats. King Pine is not really So. NH but if they got 10 inches that's cool

I cant tell you how it skied monday but i can say the heaviest snow belt was around concord up towards ragged. Where we were, near waterville, there was maybe 3" at about 2,000 feet and almost nothing in the valley. The reports of 10" at some of the areas you mentioned seem accurate though as the snow really got deep towards exit 24 on 93. It killed me to have to leave on a powder day but that's the story of my skiing career. shoulda been here yesterday/should go tomorrow....:wink:

I was at Pats Peak yesterday and quite a few trails were left ungroomed.

Went there on a "powder" day a few years ago and was pleased to see that they left the normally groomed blacks alone.

Gunstock was great on Monday. Snow hit perfectly. They groomed Sun night then got dumped on early Monday AM and didn't do a thing toit so conditions were great. I would guess 8 inches. Nice freshies in the AM and even into the afternoon. No crowds at all on Monday, even less people today, still some good snow, they got probably 3 more inches today. Panorama was closed today but we didn't wait in line once.
