That’s a cool graph. Yes we saw it go up after the dam formed and it was really quick

There’s an ice dam under the bridge right by my house. A bit unsettling with more rain coming…

Heaviest squalls of the day falling now

Send us some. Just light snow here. Visually nice but the trails are in the worst shape they’ve been all season - plus they look like the checkout line at Walmart on Black Friday

Just light snow here,

Received some interesting communication about this. Several trails are closed for grooming; they did not want to groom this morning due to the timing of the frontal passage, which in order to open trails would have forced to groom before the freeze resulting in extremely packed conditions. Instead, they chose to keep the trails closed, let them freeze solid and then reopen after they've been groomed - plus some snowmaking. I actually think decisions like that are what makes this mountain so much better; I've seen plenty of times groom at Cannon with temperature in the 40s ahead of a cold front, and then the next day those trails were unskiable. This allows them to do it right.

I don’t think many outside of the upslope areas had feet to begin with

Those chairs were up to the middle of the rest just above the medallion before this nasty spell. Definitely some big losses!

It’s all already snow covered, ice is not much of a problem. The snow pretty much absorbed the water and gives you decent traction

Went to snow quickly, now mod/heavy snow

Just turned to sleet here. About a foot of snow left. Pack lives

Trashnado?

I feel like every time we get a warmup we talk about it like it's this crazy thing, while it seems to me to be climatology. I've never experienced a NNE winter when we don't have a major rain/melt event at least once if not multiple time through the season. Rinse, repeat...

I may be biased but you may want to consider Bretton Woods. Recover quickly is relative; what you need is top notch grooming.

Bretton Woods was actually pretty nice today. Fast packed snow but no ice to speak of. Fun on the groomers (and so different from yesterday)

Wasn’t bad today actually - fast, packed snow. Didn’t venture into the glades of course. My pride took a beating as my 7 year old son beat me by a good 4 seconds on the NASTAR course lol

44 degrees with flurries lol. Great day on the slopes

Seems to be setting up for the usual great conditions till the holiday week lol

Interesting. That doesn’t make the Wildcat chair seem particularly exceptional, even though it’s always felt that way to me. Might be their marketing lol… “The Wildcat Express is the fastest and longest detachable Quad chair lift in New Hampshire and possibly the fastest in the Northeast.”

Wowzer. It doesn’t feel like it was such an awful winter but that graph tells another story

That chair is 1000 ft/min or so. As @PhineasC said, it hauls ass

For fast vertical, you should really try Wildcat if you haven’t already. A single chair, 2100+ feet of vertical, and fast ride up.

Yeah we got some zr 2 nights ago

You had to ruin it didn't you? I was just daydreaming about planting my tomatoes!

Days like this make me feel ready for Spring. So foolish though
