  1. Ya people have been getting after it in the spots less prone to wind loading and associated instabilities. Before this last storm there was a really nice stable snowpack in many zones. Skiing is just getting started in the alpine.
  2. There are ski descents happening this year in the whites that haven’t happened since 2019 or earlier. Yale Gully for instance, which we were lucky enough to ski this weekend. As is typical though a lot depends on wind, and there’s been no shortage of crazy wind this season. Dodges did not look filled in at all for some reason and I’m not hearing of many folks skiing ammo or the west side. Wildcat valley trail was as good as I’ve ever skied it two weeks ago, but on that same day the skiing on the frontside was wind blown and not good.
  3. 80” for the season after yesterdays 5”. One more advisory event will get me to average more or less.
  4. Just got off the hill where it was 6-8” above 800’ or so.
  5. Been puking here for past 3 hours. Just did 5” in that time, so over 2” per hour rates.
  6. Finally starting to crank here, let’s see what we can do over the next 4-6 hours
  7. About as good as it gets on the rock pile yesterday. Was lucky everything lined up and got into Huntington Ravine for Diagonal and Yale gullies.
  8. Lol that’s my old UPS guy Jacques, hope he’s doing well
  9. Jay was great mid winter skiing today, glad we made the trip over. .
  10. Looks really good for you through Thursday. 12"+ of fake snow incoming.
  11. Answered my own question. By Thursday looks ok as modeled .
  12. Healthy upslope signal for northern green tues-thursday. I’ve read wind could be an issue but not seeing it modeled? What am I missing? Thinking about chasing to Jay on Thursday as long as wind is not an issue.
  13. Can confirm, rates just picked back up again.
  14. 10” at the hill, same at home. For the second time this winter, we are buried. To the grip of that ski pole is 36” and I was hitting the crust from before this cycle so it’s deeper. Not bad for a part of NNE that doesn’t do upslope. .
  15. 3” at home, already settling. Higher on the hill this morning was closer to 4 or 5” and much better consistency. What a joy to ski powder all week and Saturday looks like another fantastic day on tap. It’s been a while since we’ve had a stretch in this part of NNE and we were due. photo from yesterday
  16. Yes, they have big plans. Will take some time to sort out. It’s such a great little hill, I wouldn’t care if they didn’t change a thing. With that said, change is inevitable and I’ll embrace it.
  17. What a snow hole that place and Littleton NH is. Glad we don’t live there.
  18. That ocean enhanced band GYX mentioned multiple times is rotting over me, seems to have positioned itself further north than forecasted.
  19. Pretty cool to loop the radar and watch it fill in over the last couple of hours. Really gets the weenie in me going.
  20. Dumping here, really good rates still. Not sure how much but it’s skiing like 4-6” .
