That is an amazing pic! I wanna ski those whales before they groom them haha. I was at Windham a few years ago when they opened World Cup and there were huge whales and snowmaking going. The backside of the whales were so steep! .

Yes! Liberty Origin 96. My favorite ski yet!! .

Even way down south at Stratton was awesome yesterday. This is Snowbowl lift line with natural snow bumps. .

Looks like some nice packed powder! Awesome! .

Skied Killington this afternoon. Variable conditions. Some packed powder, some granular and some ice. Some soft bumps on east fall. K1 gondola up. Ski down to north ridge. 12 runs. Peak walkway to gondola down. Great to be making turns and getting the ski legs going! .

Jiminy Peak moved there targeted opening date to the weekend after Thanksgiving due to a lack of water. Ponds are low for sure. Us skiers have to pray for rain lol. That’s a new one. .

Got a glimpse through phone last night but couldn’t see with naked eye. .

I’m psyched. Just retired from teaching and hope to at least triple my number of ski days haha. Midweek skiing finally! I have Ikon and Jiminy Peak Zepher (only 30 min from my new house). Looking forward to running over there for a few runs here and there to watch the sunset before the lights kick on. Or when it’s snowing. .

True. Felt like early April. Trickles and streams were flowing. Hard earned snow disappearing act. Oh well. Hopefully the melt slows down. .

Stratton was bluebird. Clouds forming on the southern windward side quickly evaporated on the leeward side. Snow was soft and easy to turn in. I had trouble finding bumps. The firm base under the spring corn just refused to bump up. But what a glorious day with no lines and a festive vibe. .

For those craving damaging winds, be careful what you wish for. My house got split in half by a massive 140 year old Norway spruce on February 3 (arctic front - 64 mph gust) and we have been displaced ever since. Gave up on getting back in house anytime soon (Statefarm is so slow and contractors can’t find help) so we are closing on a new house on Friday (out in the country, more land, higher elevation and hopefully more snow). Gonna sell the old house which will be virtually brand new…. Hopefully late spring [emoji1696]. Damaging winds can change your life for sure. With that being said, wind gonna do what wind gonna do, so wishing for or against it won’t change anything lol. .

2” here in Albany. Pleasantly surprised. Roads are horrific. No sign of plows. .

Thanks for all of the updates today! Looking forward to some spring corn hero snow arriving soon!! .

Anyone ski today? A Little warmth, a little rain and now cold. How did the snow hold up. Icy? .

7” of cement .
