9: Killington - 1/1/17 - Great snow and small crowds, awesome day and great way to kick off 2017!

15: Copper Mountain - 1/18 - Amazing "goomer" day, 34.6k vert. and 31 miles ridden... unbelievable!

17: Wachusett - 2/9 - Powdah! Last night didn't suck!

25: Mount Snow - 3/18 - Nice conditions... I wonder how long their season will go.
26: Killington - 3/25 - Snow wasn't bad, a bit hard. Very FOGGY, couldn't see more than 20-30' to start.
27: Mount Snow - 3/26 - Arrived late to scraped off icy snow.

What a disappointing weekend...

10 hours of driving for four (4)!!! total runs. 3 on Saturday @ Killington because we drove up the 3 hours to ride with my family who bailed. Followed by 1 run Sunday @ Mount Snow after my wife fell on some ice and hurt her knees. Well, at least it can't really get any worse, right?

Great weekend. Saturday started with 6-8" fresh overnight and it kept snowing all day, totaling over a foot. Tracks kept filling in. Found a new run late in the day. Today, more leftovers and some runs with the kids, ending with another American Express run.
