If the upcoming week gives the necessary time to "refresh" things, I'll head up there next weekend.

Who says Jay doesn't have honest and blunt reporting. That is really spelling it out right there!Jay Peak Resort said:

Stowe had pouring, wringing-wet conditions for most of the day. It then changed to light rain for the remainder of the day. Ten cars in the parking lot, probably most of them were employees
I'll get another report on Saturday and I'll be skiing it on Sunday. Now, where did that edge sharpening thread go?
Frankly, I'm not expecting it to stiffen up until Monday when the lows hit the single digits again. Go figure.
Now Joshua @ MRG has other ideas - pow on Sunday?

Lower mountain softened up for some really good skiing at Lincoln Peak at Sugarbush today. Moonshine, Twist and especially the Mall were the place to be for deep soft bumps.
First time there today - not sure what is typical. Bit icy today - sign at the lift said "dust on crust" . Timbuktu (?) woods were the only REALLY icy spot we hit. It was flurrying most of the day with a shower of sleet/snow around noon that added about an inch or so to the little bit they got last night. But there was lots of snow on the mountain (just pretty firm) and later in the day skied better than the morning. Not sure if it was traffic or temps that loosened it up.

Stowe woods were the place to be today. Powder delight. Snowed all day, never hit the hard stuff. We only stopped because we had to. We banged the woods for 5 1/2 hours. Some of the best skiing of the season for us. Very light woods traffic. Rock star parking. Broke my heart to leave. Really. Awesome day.

Glad to hear that you had good skiing and good parking! :beer:

Well, at least I won THAT lottery!! We WERE in the Stowe woods on Sunday. Fun, fun and more fun. This family had an absolute blast - lots of laughter. Soooo glad we didn't let the rain at the hotel fool us into bagging the day and heading home.

There was this Dad, with about 6-7 little tykes (probably all less than ten) going into Nosedive glades. That wasn't your posse' was it?
What strikes me odd is that up and down the green mt. spine, people were reporting poor woods conditions. What gives? Maybe I was reading the reports upside down? Did Ullr like our sacrifice, or did we just get lucky?
I love natural snow.

i didn't ski the woods yesterday but from what i could see from the trials and the lifts the natural snow cover in the woods @ Okemo looked fantastic.
Nope. We were in the Nosedive glades most of the afternoon, but we only have 3 kids - one 10 yo and two teenagers. Had an absolute blast in there!

How I miss the Nosedive glades, that whole area was one of my favorite parts of the mountain. That, and just bombing down Upper and Lower Nosedive pretending to be in a downhill. lol.
