powderfreak Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 That's a wrap on the ski season at Stowe. This was 4pm right before last chair. Staff lining up cheering and fist bumping everyone on their final laps of the year. I was just rolling through making sure to get every single one a fist bump. Tons of hoots and hollers, like one giant party. d The Stowe closing day vibe is always awesome (as are most ski areas). The parking lot was one giant party. Dogs running around, grills going, beers flowing. Good stuff. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 22 hours ago, GCWarrior said: It was supposedly 4 feet! It snowed another 6” over night on Saturday. May have been the greatest two ski days of my life. It snowed another 10” that Sunday night as well, I regret not staying another night. Elevational to the extreme. Farmington co-op an my place each got ~10" from that event at about 400' elev (co-op over, MBY under) while the Temple cocorahs obs 6 miles west of the co-op and at 1220' recorded 26.4". Latitude helped a bit - highest co-op total I saw was 30" at Jackman, about the same elev as Temple. Then there were the 2 kids (HS or college age, can't recall) who thought they would try the "glades" on the back side of Sugarloaf. It's dense forest with lots of fir and spruce of all sizes, totally unskiable and they ended up neck deep and calling for help. Parents were billed for the rescue.

Skivt2 Posted April 27, 2021 Author Share Posted April 27, 2021 Killington still skiing for the next few weeks at least. Had a few good runs today in the afternoon once it softened. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skivt2 Posted May 3, 2021 Author Share Posted May 3, 2021 Killington was a lot of fun this weekend. We start the week with no lift swerved skiing until Friday now that K is three days a week only. But I’m sure there are 2-3 weeks left at least. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCWarrior Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Hiked and skied at Stratton yesterday. There was around 1000 continuous vert down Franks Fall line. Definitely worth the hour drive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there and saw it too. I was on the superstar chair and it was raining at the bottom and snowing at the top even though it was about 50 degrees. More like sleet though.

Angus Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Went up to Tuckerman's today and took two runs down left gully which was really the only route down that looked serviceable. Chute had multiple, deep runnels formed by sliding snow. Left gully had sliding snow too but you could ski across it as it was moving down the slope. There were about 50 people in the bowl all together. Hillmans is now disconnected about 3/4 of the way up which is something I always like to ski. There was consistent snowpack in the woods just below the caretaker hut so approximately 3,800'. Assuming that's it for the 2020-21 ski season, a strange one for sure. I weighed my pack when I finished, 40lbs according to the scale, I'm tired! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s good. It was such an odd winter, so good in the middle but crap on either end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
