This weeks colder nightime temperatures will hold the machine made bases easily this week. So many areas like Mount Snow, Hunter, Okemo, Stratton... etc. are closed with deep bases on several of their trails. Closed from lack of skiers, not a lack of snow base.

We will likely lose all natural-snow runs this week. No more glades.

A lot of snow was lost early in the week, but them got a reprieve, however Jay definitely lost some snow during my stay (Saturday to Easter Monday). However a few natural snow trails and glades should survive. It all depends on orientation, elevation and this week’s weather.

I’ve got back real late night, especially after my kids shutdown the Waterpark. I just went through the ski areas and I have posted a new list for potential ski areas for next weekend.
Although none of the Eastern Canadian ski areas (6 in Quebec and 1 in Ontario) wil open midweek, 7 of them are looking to open next weekend ... and some are openly looking into May.
St-Sauveur is openly talking Mothers’ Day and has definitely more than one weekend left.
Ste-Anne (liek Tremblant) is on a fixed scheduled regardless of the amount of snow left.
Other than Mont Sutton, the next 3 Quebec ski areas are remote local areas.
Anyhow, without further ado, here is this week’s list:

We of course there will be! I was just looking at the forecasts for Killington and Jay and rain is predicted for Saturday (the day that I can go). However, amounts are not that high and they are scattered throughout the day - so not a whole day event! Will have to play this one by sight!
Funny how this thread turned into a what is still open thread!

Not unexpected at all though. Who cares what's closed? We're really only interested in what's still open!(I admit being a glass-half-full kind of person)

Your avatar is definitely a nice touch.
Need all the good will they can get going into season pass sale weekend. I can't make it this weekend, but if they are open the following weekend, I can swing Sunday the 4th.

I took a break from last weekend as I was happy to spend a day at Cannon with Puck it and PDMROMA, but hit Crotch for one more tonight (and probably the last hike and ski of the season.) I was still able to ski 70% of the way down, really enjoyed it, and caught a nice sunset. If I can't make it up again tomorrow, Saturday's rain will finish it off. Not as good as last year's hike to ski season , but still a blast. Base shot 4/24
