  1. I'm thinking B- or maybe a B. It was a consistent winter but I'm still 10"-15" below normal for snow. We did get just about wiped out a week or so before Christmas. It never got down to completely bare ground but set back the start of snowmobile season. The cold was consistent, somewhat low grade. We didn't have any truly low minimums but had a lot of low maximums. If we could have held out with winter for another week or so, the grade might be a bit higher.
  2. Mud season is in full swing in my driveway and the parts of the yard I keep snowblowed. 51° and mostly sunny.
  3. Am I reading that correctly? It looks like a relatively warm month with the coldest high temp being 19°
  4. Now you're seeing the issue I have with early warm ups and melt outs up here. Regardless of what happens, you can't do anything outside until mid to late April so losing the pack early just prolongs mud season.
  5. My dad was a HVAC tech for 30+years and he always said everything was tied to the price of oil. When heating oil goes up, wood goes up, natural gas goes up, propane goes up. It’s all based on oil.
  6. The trailer too but that was found in time for me to bring it back with me last weekend.
  7. Somewhere in Canada. One of them is at a fenced in lot after being recovered by the police and I don't know where the other one is. If that one doesn't show up this week, the insurance company will pay up and I'll go up and get the found one in New Brunswick.
  8. We have poster who has a home at 1800’ there. He hasn’t been posting much this winter.
  9. I have tomorrow off and will be riding. Not my sled but am lucky to be able to access one.
  10. Looks like about an inch of snow overnight. I guess I missed that in the forecast.
  11. If that’s it, it was sprinkles mixed with flurries.
  12. Glad you had a god time. I was in New Brunswick riding last week and had a great time. Until Friday morning when I went out to start packing the truck and found no trailer. The trailer and sleds were stolen overnight. The recovered the trailer later that day and have since recovered one of the sleds. Luckily the sleds were fully insured but its a bit of a pain in the ass.
  13. How was the Gaspe? I've heard the north shore is excellent right now and while the south shore is fine, there is a noticeable difference in snow amounts this year.
  14. I’d like to see what @powderfreakgets for liquid equivalent in a core sample. Until Friday night, there just hadn’t been much for qpf in the pack. Not that a warm Rainer wouldn’t cause issues, especially with the amount of ice on the rivers but I think we have some liquid storage capacity right now.
  15. Similar here. The intangible for me is the lack of qpf. Until last Friday/Saturday there wasn’t much meat in the pack.
  16. Ooh, maybe @Chrisrotary12and I can get a tee time for sometime next week.
  17. They have to wait at least 7 days from filing the claim to proceed with any payout. I guess that is in case they turn up. I have options for riding from friends who have spare sleds and VAST has sleds I can borrow. It's just a pain in the rear end.
  18. I would have like to have seen even a little but the beefy 7.5" we got Friday night was great for the trails. Or at least I assume it was since I can't get out on them without sleds
  19. I’ve missed having your pictures posted regularly.
  20. I drove through from Bethel to Holton and back this week and was surprised about the relatively low snow pack in a lot of the state. Trail crossings were beat in a lot of places. I didn’t ride in Maine but just across the border in NB, the trails east of the St. John’s valley were in nice shape but the locals were saying it was somewhat low compared to normal. The trails along the river were pretty thin.
