have not had time to check in.....ski shop madness in full effect! so not sure if it's still relevant or not....beta none the less. Less being the word to describe the natural snow pack in windsor county. Temp roller coaster sucks! its awesome one day and sucks the next and the next day back to almost awesome. Ascutney has snow......minimal down low and a do-able amount up high from the way it looks from Okemo. There is a solidified layer in the un-skied woods. Breakable crust and crunch waiting for the next dump! dawn patrol on the last storm resulted in some minor edge damage and some minor base sratches.....and one face shot in a drift. bring repairs to Northern Ski Works in Ludlow.

I posted an overall conditions report in the TR section, but thought I would post a link here too.

Sure was fun last weekend. The end of this week and coming weekend look even better!

Nice work righty. The madness for us begins tomorrow morning pre-dawn. Will feel good to knock the rust off again. Enjoy.

Yesterday was a serious slog fest. Got some turns although it wasn't pretty... Figured we better give it one more go before the rain gets here. On a positive note, it was good to be in the mountains on a sunny day.

HOLY FUCK!!!!!!!

Hey rightsider, did you do the video on the fotw website?

Wasn't me. They did a great job! I'm pretty sure Brent Harrewyn aka Hoverfly Photography made the video.

BTW - conditions were soooo good above 2,500' yesterday.

I did Teardrop today. Cold and windy as hell, felt like January! The trees are still holding fluff.

Tonight could prove to be interesting. I've seen forecasts range up to 8 in. on the smuggs website. Madonna mountain lifts are closed. I've heard that Stowe has shut down lifts too. Do any of their closed trails play out well with some fresh snow?
