I'm just seeing that Pico(/Killington) charges $20 for an "uphill travel pass". I suppose it is cheaper than a gym membership :roll:

Given the winter to date, without improvement, there will be many areas going to weekend only, if not closing outright, very early, and very soon. One more rain storm without some snow will set to course. Only a dump will reverse it.

I drove by Pico last weekend and couldn't believe how bare most of their trails were. Based on what I saw, I'm not surprised they are cutting back to weekends only.

Greek Peak closed today for the second time this year due to rain. I've been skiing there for over 20 yrs and don't recall them closing due to rain ever. I took yesterday off to enjoy their meager offerings before the deluge, depressing.

There are lots of good reasons to close during warm rains. Preservation of snow pack is chief among them.

Burke has released a statement concerning closure during the heat wave tomorrow.

Pico never really opened this season.
Was a mirage.

Killington will handle the overflow just fine.
Pretty sparse there with Presidents gone.

Smart move by Killington, this is an unprecedented season that calls for unprecedented decisions. It is the fairest thing for Pico season pass holders.

All that particulate in the atmosphere was what kept the temps down.

And contributed to the cloud seeding.

And contributed to the cloud seeding.

And chem bombs. And chem trails.
