  1. Berkshire East reporting 6". I'd say that is pretty spot on. Skiing was nice both last night and early this morning. Better today once the fresh snow bonded with the ice underneath.
  2. I want to say 4-5" here but I haven't really measured it. It did ski incredibly nice regardless!
  3. I like what the Euro is showing for Savoy/Florida up into Searsburg/Woodford.
  4. Yes I read that on the ski runners facebook page. I'll bring a saw, maybe i can help out a little. I'd think there are a lot of trees down on the skin track as well. I may just go for it.
  5. I dislike posting on facebook groups and having people tell me I can't ski places because they don't want me wrecking their spot. That being said, anyone here think the Thunderbolt is skiable right now? I'd think it would be above 1500'.
  6. I love Cannon. I can say though I have never been there when it has been fully game on. It like another Indy pass legend, Magic, suffers from the great terrain but limited snow scenario. Cannon does have a great snowmaking system, they can cover a lot of the mountain in manmade if you are into that sort of thing. I have skied there when most of the trees have been skiable and the lower mountain woods are very fun, upper are very tight and steep. Cannon is also home to one of the gnarliest trails in the east, DJ's Tramline. I have not had the chance to ski it but I've heard good things. I had a pass at Wildcat for a season when I lived up there and I can say they get a lot more snow. Wildcat has some super fun terrain and tons and tons of great stashes!
  7. February is a lame month for snow the last several years out here at least.
  8. UK looks good for this area. Local ski hill is very close to full game on. Nice meat and potatoes Friday night helps cover the rocks.
  9. Lanesborough. About 45 mins from my house. 112, 116 and then some side roads.
  10. Deep winter up in Savoy on my drive though this morning.
  11. Having skied at prospect mountain and areas around Woodford I can say that area gets legit snowfall. Woodford will usually exceed Mount Snow’s snowfall totals. Mount Snow is only about 10 miles to the east. I’ve heard the high areas of mount Glastonbury get extremely deep snow pack.
  12. Sloppy inch here. Berkshire East saying 4” some folks have said 6-8” above 1200’. I got one child still sleeping the other is shredding the gnar!
  13. Sneaky spot for this one is Dutch Hill. PowderBeard knows what I'm talking about. May almost be skiable when all is said and done.
  14. This next storm should help Wildcat's snowmaking problems!
  15. Just read that when I searched for the storm on google! That may have been the greatest winter ever! The early February storm was very impressive as well!
  16. Maybe Saturday can work out for out here. A couple inches is better than nothing.
  17. I'll take my chances with a SWFE as well. Some of our biggest storms here are from SWFE's.
  18. If work wasn't a factor, Maine teachers don't get paid well. Rangeley, ME is a great spot. Big lakes for summer, great skiing in the winter. Great snowpack retention.
  19. I've been lurking in here a long time and now a post a little bit. I'd like to point out how many times everyone on this forum has melted much of mid December to January. How many times have things turned themselves around vs not? Long range models are great, ensembles are great, but it seems people get way into looking into the future rather than just letting things happen. If winter doesn't pan out so be it, blame climate change, rake your lawn and move on to summer activities. But anything can happen if we just be patient. I remember skiing in a t-shirt at Sunday River around this day in 2007, full manmade snow. 6 weeks late I was throwing back flips off a deck into snow up in Huntington, VT.
  20. Happy for the Browns, not many sports franchises worse than them. Sadly for them they have to play Mahomes and the Chiefs next week. Enjoy the week Cleveland!
  21. After today it would see that there is a nice long window for snowmaking. Guns should be firing up tonight here at Berkshire east.
  22. Wildcat probably gets sold off. It doesn't really fit Vail's profile. There is no lodging or on site dining besides the bar. Mount Snow, Okemo, Attitash, Stowe, Sunapee are very resorty, Wildcat is not really.
