Mt Snow summit is at 28.3F and snowmaking has resumed on Cascade/Canyon as of 12:31pm. I'll be there tomorrow.

Does BMA have something scheduled?

The East Coast race season is pretty much done, short of a few more "fun" than serious races the next week or 2.

BMA likely has multiple athletes going out to the US Alpine Championships in Sun Valley starting in a few days and running for a bit over a week.

Usually for a BIG event like that, if a ski Academy has athletes who qualify, they'll send the athletes and assorted coaches out to the competition site a few days ahead of time to get a feel for the race hill and the same snow they'll be racing on

And looking at the VT Alpine Racing Association race calendar there's no events scheduled for Burke through the end of the Eastern race season on April 3rd

Cascade to Canyon is all lit up right now looking out my back deck across route 100 at the mountain.

They're starting to light up Long John from the Base working on up. Still 26 degrees on my deck (roughly 2200 feet elevation or about 300 feet above the base area). Still more overcast than clear with winds of 5 to 10mph - should be a good night to make some piles, especially as the temps continue to drop on the NW wind and clearing skies

Wildcat was blowing the Snowcat slope and Polecat right up to the Tomcat chair. Besides snowmaking, conditions were great today.

Sunday River covered a bunch from White Heat to South Ridge. Tonight they are going from Cascade all the way to Paradigm with plenty in between too. Planning on making Sunday night as well right now!

Sunday River is taking tonight off and claims to be resuming snow making Monday night. Going to check out their product later this week.
