  1. While I haven't been out there this week, I can verify that the snow hangs in there. It's the first and last place to snowmobile in this area. Former poster @Allenson called the are the Near Kingdom in reference to it sort of being the start of the NEK. The town is home to the largest state forest/state park in VT https://fpr.vermont.gov/groton-management-unit.
  2. No, only to Portage Lake. Hopefully I can get back up again.
  3. I was up there for the first time for a week in early February. Stayed out in the old air base in Limestone. Had a great time and did about 700 miles in 5 days. Lake View, Deans, up to Madawaska and down to PQI. I was with a large group, one day we had 36 sleds from all over the eastern US and Maritime provinces. Would definitely go up again.
  4. Touched 60 here but back down to 57. No sun to speak of.
  5. Overcast but 58° here. That's a win in my book
  6. Yeah, like I said in my post, the further east you go, the worse for snow. That location, especially given the elevation will be good. Further east on VT 25 towards Bradford gets sketchier.
  7. They avoid getting shadowed for the most part. It’s a good snow area away from the CT River. The elevation is decent for the most part. As you get to St. J and Lyndon it starts getting worse. Danville, Peacham, Groton are all good snow areas. And the higher elevations in most towns too.
  8. Check out the local ski area. https://northeastslopes.org
  9. Very good. That’s about 10-15 miles from me. There is another poster in the NNE sub that lives not far from there in Topsham.
  10. At least at my place, it's just normal April crappiness. No rain yet but overcast and 38.6° Yay
  11. Yeah, back roads haven’t been too bad around here. Mud season still sucks in general.
  12. Minimum of a month away from this at my course. Should be a driving range open somewhere soon though.
  13. Just like that, back to white. I’ll call it .10. It’s a little more than a dusting. 23.3°
  14. Beautiful afternoon here. Sunshine, blue skies and 58°. I’m ready for it. Melt it out.
  15. With the 3” we got last night, I think I’m at 96” or 97”. The old airport obs at KMPV averaged 96” from the late 40’s through the mid 90’s when that was discontinued and I always thought I averaged around 100”. That seems to be the case.
  16. The problem with the hybrid version, at least right now, is that they don’t come in AWD, they only make FWD versions. Other than that, I agree.
  17. I’m probably going C or C-. The lack of cold to freeze the ground really impacted the snowmobile trails. On the other hand, heating fuel usage wasn’t crazy and I’m up over 90” for the year. Some of my negativity is also a result of my winter activities coming to a screeching halt after my kidney abscess issues. So while it’s been a memorable winter, it’s not all for the right reasons.
  18. There must not have been any owls in SNE this winter because there was a big rat hanging out down there all season.
  19. About 3” here. Still some light snow.
  20. About 3”. It was absolutely dumping big, heavy, wet flakes for an hour or two. Still some light snow falling. 32.9°
