Yeah, it rained throughout the day Tuesday, never turned back to snow as we had hoped. As you say, though, there is still a coating of natural from the storm over everything, so maybe that means it's a net gain all in all?

The bummer of it is that they'll groom out Chute so they wont go into T-Day weekend with a frozen,icy bumpfield on one of the trails.

That's a bummer! But it looks like there's still some "fresh" allbeit soggy I'm sure, snow at the base of Snow. From what I can make out in the webcam...looks like snowmobile tracks in a few inches of new snow.

As long as a lot didn't vanish..I'll be happy.

Just bring in another big push of cold Canadian air like last week and between what fell today that will set up as primo base snow and the various lake effect remnents that show up at Mount Snow in weather patterns like that, and we'll have lots of the mountain open real soon! :)

I'm glad they were making snow on the other trails this weekend. In fact, if you look at that shot they took from the plane over the weekend, you can really see the snow making effort.

Looks like Sugarloaf wins this round...

Daily Update:

9:38

Last week we said that this season would kick into gear quickly... we never thought it would be THIS quick. I just came down Haymaker from the top of the SuperQuad and it was unbelievable. We have over 2 feet of snow in some places. The park is completely covered and, even at the bottom of the mountain, we have at least 14 inches.

Everything I can find says that it stayed all snow there...
