  1. It's usually early September, but I've seen it as early as August 17 and technically, according to my landscaper, it can happen any month. Mostly because we radiate so well
  2. That's depressing... But true! And just over 3 months to the first frost. Such a short summer!
  3. It's not warming up at all. Kinda wild to have icicles from the roof in May in the middle of the day
  4. Which is what pi$$es me off (read thread on NNE) when they state they have 88” of snow season to date. Sure, maybe that’s what fell in some ravine on the wind protected side, but from an average skier perspective, it’s a bogus number.
  5. Several ungroomed no snowmaking trails opened here this week - was fun to ski and great conditions with a very dense bottom layer and fluffy top! Looks like the whole mountain is making snow tonight though lol. Prepping for the meltdown?
  6. A bit icy here too, but beautiful day
  7. Won’t be bad here. Grooming plus a fresh coat is just fine.
  8. New gondi in better weather (picture taken by a client)
  9. The new gondola opened today at Bretton Woods! Nice powdery coating to go with it.
  10. It was a frigid opening day for sure - 14 for a high. The gondola was moving but only the Zephyr quad was open; looks like they were working on a lot more terrain, I'm hoping that gondola will be actually open soon!!!
  11. I'm terrified of T bars lol. Even though I'm a decent skier I just hate them. They are tiring and I'm constantly thinking I'm gonna fall. Part of it is that growing up in Italy there were some pretty gnarly T Bars there. As a kid I was pretty scarred by them lol.
  12. Yeah the new restaurant looks awesome. Wont open till next summer though. The gondola is ready to go. Don't particularly care for gondolas except for when it's really cold.
  13. Over 36” on the ground. That snowflake thingie is the top of my stake
  14. Thanks - never thought of that. Downloading a free one right now, thanks for the tip!
  15. Same here. How do you get an alarm on your phone?
  16. That's exactly how it was happening! I need to start paying attention to the sky, I didn't realize it was so common...
  17. Weird that this thread is dead but just saw northern lights over Bartlett for the first time tonight. Faint greenish glow, pulsing between weaker and stronger. Very cool.
  18. From Winchester/Arlington Heights area. Glad to have the forum back!
