Conditions at Atowe. Good and getting better. First chair today, then first gondi, then second chair on the Big Pig. Really milked it. Conditions were 6-8 heavy inches that skiied really well. On the lower angle stuff you could just float down w/o edging much, with my fatties it was enough to no bottom out much. Hovered down Nosedive alone w/no tracks, really had to point the bottom to make the quad. Hunted fresh untracked all day.

Some old Wolf Cold Smokes...in a 168. 8) Still dumping here, but it looks like NH and Maine will have the biggest totals in the end. Hard to tell what the wrap-around will do.

OZ from Sr board said 7 at Sunday River so far today and really coming down.

 

[Robbski]

Loon Reporting 7 inches at top 2 at base so far. Cannon and Bretton Woods always seem to come in with the highests totals.

Any of these places reasonable for a day trip from Nashua? I've considered them but I'm concerned about the drive times.

Hell yeah! 11/2 hrs tops to loon from Nashua, 1 3/4 to Cannon and maybe 2 1/4 to BW unless you have an excellent radar detector

 

[ctenidae]

Loon's at most 2 hours from Boston, with a middlin' radar detector. If you can't get there from Nashua, well, you're just not trying hard enough.

 

[swade2469]

Anyone heard about Killington? (This P.M.)

 

[ChileMass]

Nothing but rain here in Billerica MA, and it has almost stopped (3:30PM).

 

[Vortex]

Loon just sent me an e-mail powder alert 15 inches so far and still snowing . Got it about 3.30. I bet they send these to other people also :wink:

NCP (non-crystalline precip) has changed over to snow in the past half hour here in scenic Billerica, MA......

ATTITASH BURIED BY NOR’EASTER TO THE DELIGHT OF SKIERS AND RIDERS
Resort to be 100% open this weekend – 18” at 4:00 p.m. Sunday as snowfall continues

BARTLETT, NH (Feb. 10, 2005) – Defying earlier forecasts of a more southern track, the Feb. 10 nor’easter has slammed into the Mount Washington Valley. Snow got underway early on Thursday morning and had accumulated to depths of 18” across the two peaks of Attitash by early evening. The resort plans to be 100% open for the upcoming weekend when fair weather is forecast to arrive.
