Today is a GREAT day for snow making across the northeast...

Post the pics you've seen (I saw some of dmc's from hunter in the other thread, those look great!)

this one is from Sugarloaf's facebook page:

From Mount Snow's 1/2 pipe cam this AM. They've been hammering when the temps have been there for close to a week now. Did the initial plowing/rough wall formation yesterday. LOTS of snow in there all ready. Talking about having it done (weather permitting) somewhere around New Years.

Don't have any pics but according to the report Camelback really stepped up the snowmaking this week. They are even blowing the Nile Mile which I know takes 3 1/2 days of constant blowing to open. They will not even start to blow on it until they see a suitable window. Right now it looks like at least 75% of the mountain will be open for the holidays with out any help from Mother Nature.
