Thurs. was one of the nicest days I've had at K in awhile. Bluebird, no wind & the mountain was in fantastic shape. Natural & ungroomed runs had good quality snow, as did the woods. Groomers worked overtime laying down corduroy on just about every trail that usually see's a groomer, not just a few here or there. Even OL saw a groom as did upper Wildfire. I was hard pressed to find ice anywhere & the quality of the snow was awesome with them grooming the 5" they received Tues. in. No one was there to carve them up so they stayed that way all day. After waking up to -8 at 6:30 it was already 20 when I pulled into Bear a little before 9, 37 in Rutland at 4:30. Yesterday (Fri) was a snow day. I'd say about 5" was down & still snowing when I left to drive home at 2pm.Went to K last Friday, it was tremendous; was SS/Skyelark still getting snowmaking for June? Trees in great shape.
Heading back Thurs, bought Xpress pass.

Hope you made it there Thurs. Jim G. What a day.
To answer your question about SS/ Skyelark they turned the guns back on on upper Skyelark & SS headwall again yesterday (Fri).
I hope your day at Platty was good. Enjoy Sugarloaf this week, should be epic. I'll probably be hitting up K Wed.- Fri. again this week, maybe Stowe Thurs. (council day). Parking shouldn't be a problem...I did not; skied Plattekill Wed, have to work occasionally!
I will be back mid-Feb, Sugarloaf Wed-Sun next week.
Maybe some of us just like to keep track our of days & areas skied. I know I do. Not a contest at all.Why even keep track is it a contest?
