no need imo to add3.5-4.5 hrs each way to deal with crowds and sprawling ski areas.
platts is great for kids, one can keep an eye on said kid from top of freefall on down, give props and get ack on lift in one long shot. (can, not should)
We got about 8 inches of dense cream cheese on Cape Cod. Came down thick and sideways.Quote:

Mountain Creek.... season extending dump - the next 4 days will be freeze/thaw cycles with snow further out in the forecast. First chair if you like the corduroy part, but not necessary and you pay to ski till 9pm whether you would like to or not. Schools were closed today so compaction is pretty complete. Tillage will be light... the next 3 days should be in the gitsum zone if you get close.Quote:

I had hoped this storm was going to hold a more northerly line and follow it too. Platty exists in yesteryear, rarely disappoints and has snow in the forecast. Did it get missed to day?
Yeah, I think Platty got stugatz out of this one.

eta: as a resident, my break even on the season pass is two days
for those with a wandering eye. Both Jackson and saltlake rt direct airfare (ewr) is currently hovering around 300$. I am currently lashed to a work mistress - fickle biatch
Surprising 7" of fluff came down at the Base o' Magic. There's a mountain rental today so...off to ski the 2" of dust on hockey rink at Stratton

^^Non-forecast snow all over VT. We even ended up with a few inches in BTV. It might even be enough for a lap at the golf course.
Wind is picking it up off the frozen surface and blowing into the woods here in the NEK.Quote:

ha it’s all relative. But it is a nice place to ski, especially when there’s an unexpected 5-7”, Magic is closed, and Stratton has 2”……Quote:

^ Yeah but with the $100 I saved on a lift ticket, I ordered a keg of Fiddlehead. Cost/day on my Ikon pass is now below $32.
Stratton skied way better than expected. Had to follow the wind but the lee side of the trails had a solid 4" of snow that was sturdy, not feathers. I guess the snow blowing off the trees stabilized it. Whatever the cause, it skied great. First run ever on Bear Down...it's rated a double black which is similar to blue trails at Magic.

NOAA upped the totals for this little clipper storm tonight from 2-4 inches to 6-9. This weekend might not be too bad.
