How far north do I need to go for natural skiing Saint Patrick’s weekend?

[Abominable]

How far north do I need to go to put my kids on some natural snow and fun woods skiing this weekend? Indy Pass. Our original plan was to go to Bolton Valley but we might not be able to get that far. Middlebury? How about magic and Bromley? How are things at Berkshire East? Website says glades are closed and webcams are no help. Anything south of Berkshire East is bare.

Thanks.

I don't know but Jay was great two weeks ago. Absolutely buried. Probably best Indy bet if you want nats. I'm planning on hitting Cannon this weekend. Looks like lots of snow was lost everywhere last few days.

Currently Loaf is far better than SR when it comes to woods...
ReggaeFest 4/11-4/12

SoVT still has natural terrain especially higher terrain. For instance bromley has all of their natural trials open, and all but 2 woods areas are open. Magic looks to have all green and blue trails open too, and I would assume adjacent woods. Steeper stuff more questionable. The steep 6 are closed.

I'd look carefully at snow reports. A lot of New England, at least as far north as Sugarloaf, got warm temps and some rain earlier in the week. It has cooled off since, so most natural terrain probably got wet and is now locked up hard. If it's not groomed, I think you're going to need either a corn cycle or more snow to get good skiing.

I'm wondering if there will be a sweet spot in central NE where there's still good enough natural to have some base, but will be warm enough to soften up this weekend.

I'd love to go to Magic on Saturday. Anyone have intel on whether there's enough snow to reopen the nats when it warms up enough? If not then maybe would just stick to Mt Snow or Okemo especially since they both have good south facing areas. Wouldn't hate lapping Beartrap for a few hours if it warms up.

No expert but thoughts on wind this weekend - looks to possibly be problematic but I have no clue except what I see on some apps. Heading up to Bolton and Jay skiing Sat, Sun and Mon

Jay forecast looks bad Sun/Mon. Sat warm, but dry = spring skiing

One factor I read from one of the NBC Mets out of Burlington who is a big skier, is unlike with the warmth earlier this week where the humidity was low, the warm temps earlier this week, the dew points will be in the mid to upper 50's this weekend, and that added humidity will likely "eat" more of the snowpack this weekend than the dryer air earlier this week..
