East Coast Roll Call 66 24/25 always remember SKIING IS FUN

[vt_ski]

Weird season weird thread. Fail still can't even post an opening date for Stowe and there's no blurbs or previews on any of their other hills websites about how its warm and they want to open when Mommy Nature lets them.

Almost feel like the balls deep pow shots from the Jewish Alps are some sort of AI troll bots theyre that hard to believe.

I think I will brave the WROD at Waterville on Sunday that 6 pack bumps and queues shouldn't be that awful.

Stowe has been regularly updating their snow report.

Typical Someday Bigger. Boy that place has changed over the last 10 years.

‘Magin the past 40 years! I grew up there skiing ‘79-‘89 and it was an amazing place to Rat Pack around as a teen. I haven’t been back to ski in 20+ years. I think about going back sometimes, but think it’s best to keep my happy memories and not go yell at clouds.

My first time at SR was Christmas week of 79. 12 of us were renting a house on Conway Lake (NH) that slept 6. Made the hookups “interesting”.

That was the year it didn’t snow - I remember ORDA had to truck manmade snow from Gore upta L Placid so they could do the Nordic events at the Olympics that February. Loon was horrific and I’m pretty sure Wildcat wasn’t even open. We went to SR and it was fantastic. Real snow and nobody there.

Have been back a coupla times and I don’t recognize it as the place we skied that Christmas week.

Happy Thanksgiving all!

Do you happen to know how this year's water levels stack up historically, for the same time of year? I can't recall another fall this dry, but I may have forgotten.

Thanks for the nerd sniping.

There isn't a good river gage on the Sunday River (I've tried), but the Wild River provides a pretty good analogue most of the time (spotty summer thunderstorms being the biggest exception).

I quickly pulled down and mangled the last 30 years of daily average flows for the Wild, resampling it down to the yearly average August-December flows, and it ain't great.



This year's average flow for the period is around 62 CFS, and the 30 year mean is 167. In the 30 year window, this is the 4th lowest water year with 2001 (40), 2002 (46), and 2016 (56) all being drier.

Yes I know I've read it daily. Wildcat still gets no blurb nor does Sunapee. They don't want to let people ride lifts until Spruce and Mansfield base areas have midseason snow I guess they expected packed lots and midseason crowds this weekend were they to open and couldn't do that with just snow around the chair and lineup. I don't think its corporate bean counting either as even with the worst conditions they would want people at those base areas at Stowe this week spending money.

Wildcat pre Vail was the GOAT early season WROD for New England.

I figured something out locally. Amazing what a thousand feet of vert will do.

6” at noon, 10” at 3pm and now a foot at 5.

Skiing is fun. Grateful to make turkey turns. Not sure why sideways…..

Thanksgiving provided some much appreciated snow yesterday.
