Yes...pretty much all naturals closed within the past few days.
On another note...I just noticed the daily snow report e-mails are not consistently going out. I have them all sent to one specific e-mail address and there are some significant gaps...

Mountain Report currently showing 85 open with no Castlerock. Wondering if its opened yet for hiking as the report of less than hour ago states it will be. Heading up today.

Anyone else notice how oddly quiet it's been since Xmas week started? I skied 7 days since 12/20 (mostly at North) and it was a ghost town every time. Webcams also look like today is slow despite the new snow.
Not complaining but Xmas/New Years week is usually a zoo.

the weekend prior to xmas was super cold and the days leading into new years had really questionable weather
i skied sugarbush 12/21-24, stratton 12/26, jay 12/27, and bolton 12/28, and the only line i waited on was for the jay tram

love it
Weather was up and down and it was a black-out period for Ikon base pass-holders. Holidays are not as crowded as they used to be...

meanwhile stowe has one lift open and the redditors are big mad
What do people expect when nearly all lifts are on wind-hold? I never understand people being mad about an issue like that which is out of the resort's control.

totally agree
but these are prob mostly the people who booked vacation week trips to stowe, paid a lot of money, and have been skiing slush > rain since sunday
way to go sugarbush tho with the lifts running. stowe bolton and jay are all dead in the water
