Just measured 6+ inches here in Woodstock and its still coming down. It hasn't let up yet. Very little wind with this storm. We should get the 10 inches they predicted and then some.

:snow:

The roads crews have been doing a good job clearing the roads. We have the typical 4WD SUVs off the road up side down here and there. Outside of that everything is grood.

Can't wait to see my sister in-law flounder around in the deep stuff. She's all nervous about it. But I won't abandon her....................too much.
Question is...will they open Clairs, 10 inches should be more than enough.

I want pics of Catskill Goods.
I plowed the driveway for a second time at 4:30pm. It just keeps dumping and dumping. No end in sight. Your not going to believe how much snow we have. If you want to see what it looks like you will just have to drive up tomorrow morning and find out. :D

they didnt get as much as everyone else..People were coming up at 2 saying they had more at bottom of hill..

On a more positive note.We trashed every open trail today .they might groom out some of the runs.Would imagine other areas may also depending on time of day snow finally petered out.

To be honest, the trails need to be groomed. Was up there in the late afternoon today, and it was really crusty underneath the powder. Too bad they didn't or couldn't groom it before the new snow.

powder everywhere

Wow!

December has really shaped up nicely. Looks like we are going to get a double barrel full and some more on Sat!. Look for the powderbank.com van up at Bolton Valley on Sunday 12/16...Looks like we should get some great Vermont powder skiing video. Check out our latest stops and videos from our November and December tour, and support our resort communities. Think Snow !
Reports from around Mount Snow say 7-10" has already fallen.

See you on the slopes.
