National was my fav today. Spring bumps.

Spruce Line skiers right was looking very tempting but roped. Couple poachers hit it, anyone here?!

Legs are shot. Ready for more.

Another great day @ the mountain snow is still plentiful plus lots of sun today!

Great week. A bit balmy yesterday with temps in the 60's.




Snowmaking runs holding up well. Going to need one last slug-effect storm to get us to April closing in good shape.

It certainly has been a great week! Please say NO to the slug effect. Since he moved to Vermont this year we have had the worst winter in years. Slug effect is FAKE NEWS!

Based on the snow stake, this winters snow pack is looking to track pretty much with last year. Next three days should see significant additional loss, which should have it at 3' below average. Pretty much on track with 20-21 season. Not exactly a cold 10 day either

No more slug effect...
Im going to JH...
14 powder days so far...not so bad
Total appears ahead of the last 2 seasons..

Last years snow pack was the lowest in 6 decades

There's hope ... last year we got a couple inches 3/28 followed by 6-8" on 4/1 that brought a lot back online and had the mtn skiing great.

Heading back up 3/27. Hoping for the same this year.

Agree, only at mid March plus April brings surprises. I skinned nose dive last year after closing date and it was full coverage top to bottom

I am trying to stay positive, late March/ April can bring the goods....but sitting on my deck this evening I killed my first mosquito.
So not happy.

gotta laugh. Same here in NJ. Grilling just now, enjoying a beverage and first one of the season lands on my arm. Dead on contact and not returning to spawn.

Bring on the late season snow!

How's the slug effect up there today?

 

[Kingslug20]

Dumped 7 inches sunday at JH..leaving today. Sad..
We snow mobiled in 6 feet of powder at Togwotee Ranch..that..was insane!

I was up at Stowe at the beginning of April last year and it snowed over a foot during the weekend. The year before the pandemic season Stowe had an April 21th close and we had amazing spring skiing conditions that last weekend of the season. Stay positive!
