Despite the horrid weather, the mountain ops did a fantastic job piecing the hill back together. The were many good turns to be had for sure. Amazing how a super nice bluebird spring day can make all the short comings of this ski season fade to the background, albeit for only a short time, the time was bliss.

Some Pics....

The "Squirrel's Nest" - So that's what I've been skiing over all these years.

Nice pics! Fingers crossed there's enough snow for the next few weekends.

One of the Stratton race coaches who was at the race E was at in New Hampshire last weekend said that she's been told that skiing through Easter weekend shouldn't be an issue unless it remains 60+ during the majority of days and it doesn't get cold enough to set the base up at night. After Easter Sunday, she said that from what she's been told that it's more likely than not that they won't be open, especially if the crowds are light the next 2 weekends....

Wow. Hunter's BlueBoy would have a field day on that trail.
