Here are my Updates for the most recent day I was at any particular mountain.

11/26 - Hunter, little crowded in the intermediate sections, black sections are empty and great, especially for a bump nut like myself.

12/1 - Mt Snow. Devoid of all life. If you are a true easterner (and not one of those whiney wannabe rocky mtn people) then conditions are great. Otherwise you will be complaining about Ice (what we call hardpack).

12/3 - Windham, snow is nice and soft but man made. Bumped up real quick over the day and was moderately crowded...empty for windham however.

12/11 - Labrador, snow is actually the best I have seen yet. If your from southern NY maybe you should check out and support one of your local hills. Crowds were not bad at all but because we only had one non-detach triple running, the line wait as up to 2 minutes (big deal). They even dragged out some of the park equipment and set it up by the bunny hill, probably will be relocated to the actual park when it opens this weekend.

Sugarbush 12/17 - Im freaking psyched...first 1 week trip of the season.
