Had plane tix for Sunday morning. When Vail announced on Saturday evening I sat there and hammered refresh on Alterra's page, all packed, until the announcement came down maybe 15 mins later. Was bummed, obv... Even though realistically I was prob being a selfish a-hole for chasing powder given the circumstances.
Mt Rose is still open, but I presume with skier convergence that I could pass on. I can tell you that the locals aren't happy as one might expect, given that it had been a lousy year and this was a literally perfect right side up storm.
