Some years it doesn’t. In the 80’s it was rare. The last 25 yrs it has a lot. But that’s no given. It can and certainly does, but if it doesn’t it’s not unusual. That’s just a fact.

Cutters is when we get wiped (SE winds). But while they do significantly cut down or destroy our snowpack, they’re usually followed by a few inches of snow anyways on the backside, so we actually do spend a significant amount of time with snow on trees. It’s one thing I really love about this area even though retention and overall depth is not great. From a visual perspective, it’s hard to beat (unless you’re at 2000 ft on Mansfield of course). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all ebbs and flows... you get into ruts, or into great runs... up this way, we couldn't open until December last season. This season it is record breaking snow in mid-November. More snow on the ground now than there was during the entire 2015-2016 season in the mountains. The natural variation in weather patterns is pretty crazy year-to-year... and especially over decadal periods. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one of the two 12” events since 2018-19. Of course…just a few weeks later we had King Grinch. That’s what I want to avoid. More than I want a big December snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then Feb of ‘24 I got the 13” surprise that was supposed to be 1-2”. That storm saved that winter(ended up with 25” for the season total) from being as bad as 22-23 was(which had 12.5” for the season). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
