    I didn’t mean anything other than to note the big differences over a relatively short distance. Like PF always says, orographics and microclimates are so fascinating.

    I cleaned up the driveway Monday night but left what fell afterwards. I didn't even get the snowblower out, just used the snow scoop.

    I was in Waterbury for the December 19th storm. I was sitting in a conference room at the State Office Complex and the wind was so strong it was pushing water into the room around the window seals. I would not call that "minimal damage" to the snow pack. Outside the mountains, it pretty much set us back to bare ground.

    One more thing, in Vermont, you can request the trail be curfewed and have it posted for speed.

    The first thing is that we always defer to the landowner. You can definitely ask the club to move it to a different location on your land. The would much prefer that than having to completely re-route around your property. Re-routes can be expensive and difficult but it happens all the time. Talk to the club and see if you can find something that works better for you. In the end, you have every right to not have the trail on your property but that doesn’t always make you friends locally.

    I know there are some big craft beer fans here (not me). You might find this article interesting. Vermont’s Craft Brewers Brace for an Uncertain Future

    2" here, about the same as yesterday and Saturday.

    Walden is definitely a weenie spot. Great snowmobiling area. The pictures below are from the last couple of years.

    Alright my skiing friends, I’ve been going down a ski resort ranking video rabbit hole. Peak Rankings videos on YouTube. I’ve done Jay Peak, Stowe, Sugarbush and a couple of overall ones. I’ve never been a skier but I’ve always been fascinated by it. I keep thinking I should try some sort of beginner package but at 57 it may not be wise.

    @dryslot @WinterWolfDo you guys remember any of these from the old days? I went to a vintage show today. 170 entries. My back hurts just looking at them!

    It’s been snowing most of the day here. Did I miss that in the forecasts? I spent the morning over in Washington and was surprised at how persistent the snow has been. It’s been light to moderate at times and no real accumulation but I really didn’t expect it at all.

    I saw the track in the pic and was wondering.

    Do you have a neighbor with a snowmobile?

    I don’t mind them but I wish they would compact them and use more of December.

    And the championship game should be today. The season is way too long.

    No way. He’s usually up and running his 5 miles before 6:00

    One of my favorite winters. We need to have a few bigger snowfalls thrown in away from the mountains to have it truly match up. In other news, looks like MPV is on pace for a -5° December. Even though I would like a deeper snow pack, the ground has been pretty much covered since mid November. We melted out during the torch a couple of Friday's ago but it was covered back up later that even with a light dusting.

    Down to 25.5° off a high of 35.5°. Pretty icy. With a little skiff of snow to make the ice even slipperier.

    Interesting article in the Morrisville paper about snowpack on Mt. Mansfield. Putting it here because I don't want want to start a climate change argument. Mt. Mansfield study looks at effects of shorter winters

    I've dropped a degree in the last hour or so from 33.8° down to 32.9°. I don't think my driveway is going to melt out enough to avoid a complete skating rink when it gets colder again.

    A relatively balmy 1.5° here off a low of -6.5°
