Just got off the phone with a friend.All he kept saying was "its deep its deep"!About 2 ft now since yesterday morning and still snowing.Unfortuanately,I think its going to be an f-in zoo this weekend.Wish I could get there tomorrow.

Cannon is a place I have always wanted to hit with 2feet of pow. I hope you guys can get after it before the weekend!

 

[SIKSKIER]

Its rare when Cannon has 2 ft of consistant snowfall thats not windblown.Very very rare.

As good time as any to hit Bear Gut...

Unreal today. Best day in over two years for me. Thigh deep in unmarked glades. Boot to knee deep everywhere else. Upper mountain was terrible visibility. One and done. Everything on the front 5 and glades off above traverse to Tram. Mitty was great also. Knee deep down Taft Training Slope.

I'll be there Saturday

Cannon yesterday was great. Most everything was tracked out but still managed to find a couple hundred vertical feet of a tight untracked chute with boot to knee deep powder. Crowds weren't bad after you got past the line for getting tickets. Tramline and Kinsman were skiing nicely too.

Friend of mine who typically skis Jackson Hole was up there Saturday for the first time on my recommendation, and reported an epic powder day. I was compelled to remind him that this was an atypical Cannon experience.

 

[petergriffen]

Hopefully going back tomorrow only supposed to be 30 so it may be icy again?

 

[Puck it]

May be a last minute call in the morning and drive up later.

Crowded out there today. Windy with clouds moving fast across the summit. Snow cone/mashed potatoes surface. Crazy what a couple warm days and the start of Mass vaca week can do to a place!!!

Also, not sure I've seen it mentioned this year, but I strongly approve of the new contoured Baron's > Raven Ridge connector trail. Got rid of that awkward, terrible luge track t-bone into beginner terrain transition.
