The "Sugarbush Thread"

[rocks860]

Couldn’t make it up last year for our normal week at sugarbush so I’m pumped to get there this year. What are the current covid regulations at the mountain? I only got out to magic last year and you basically couldn’t go inside at all

What are the current covid regulations at the mountain?

Masks inside.

Changed over. Snowing in the valley
With a little wind also
Here we go

 

[TSQURD]

Send it this way please - Still 38* and rain at the base.

Dumping at Stowe...all....snow

 

[TSQURD]

The RADAR is showing all snow, but looking out my window says otherwise.

 

[KustyTheKlown]

a friend who lives near hardwick (northeast kingdom-ish) just posted that its now snowing 'after hours of dumping rain'

 

[TSQURD]

And now we are all snow. Temp still needs to come down though

Two new webcams at North on Youtube. One at Northridge and a new one at the bottem which is not online. All cams show snowing. It is a good thing to start off with heavey wet snow. The base needs it. There is plenty of time for the temps to drop.

also the rain should refill the reservoir at South for snowmaking.

Jimmy the combo of some rain and the temps we had over the last 48 hours should make for plenty of water. It will be interesting to see what they do. They really need to blow Snowball, Spring Fling, Steins and Coffee run if we are to ski in April and make it to Cinco de Mayo.

Changed from light drizzle to snow here in Fayston (1400 ft) around Noon. Temps are falling.

Wonder what's up with North Lynx. Was on mechanical hold most (or maybe even all?) of the day yesterday and started off on hold today and has now switched to closed per the snow report status page.

 

[Hawk]

Interesting. Maybe a good time to rent the cabin cat. ?

 

[WinS]

I recall them starting to blow snow on FIS last year and then a pipe blew. I can't recall if they ever went back to it after that.

Correct

Hell ride. Actually not bad until after New London on 89 Exit 14 in NH then the fun began. It is absolutely NUKING up here now. Less than 1/4 mile viz.

 

[Kingslug20]

Thought of going to sb but stowe is easier ride...until i got behind the old woman in a volkswagon...who works here..thst slowed the conga line down a bit

 

[Hawk]

It is 17 and snowing moderately this morning with barely any wind. I would say about 10" so far. NWS is saying another 3 to 5. It's not the 18 to 24 they were saying but we will certainly take it. Tons of people out this morning. I think it is going to be busy like Street Skier was saying the other day.

 

[SkiTheEast]

Just fyi, heard that a portion of German Flats was closed as of 7:30 this morning. Apparently an 18 wheeler jack knifed on the hill near Sugar Run so plan accordingly.

Better not be the beer truck!
