Really jealous flatlander in need of snow reports from those of you lucky enough to be up at SB.
40 degrees and starting to rain outside the office. Lovely.

TIA

Snowing lightly for a couple hours, covering slightly. Rt 100 is beginning to skin over and traffic is making that slushy mix that turns into crusticles under your wheel well. No/little breeze and mid 20s.

Snowing nicely up here on the mountain(Mt Ellen), couple of inches so far, many, many more to come.

just got done grooming mt ellen. 4" when I got there at 4. 8" when I left and still pumping and I do mean HARD! It was like being in a snow globe that some kid kept shaking. COME ON UP!

Not exactly the fluffiest Pow. Fairly high water content, not sleet though.

If that's not the best reporting, I don't know what is. Thanks.

Looks like maybe 10"? There is a little wind. Hopefully not to windy on the mtn. Leaving shortly to go make some turns.

Not as much as we wanted, but it was sweeeeet!

Nice snow!

Heaven's Gate was only on hold for a short time.

We mustn't be greedy. I'm just thankful that I can get back into the trees this weekend. The hard surface (not to mention that I stupidly skied 7 of 8 days) took a toll on me last week. Who knows, maybe we'll be pleasantly surprised by what happens friday.

Are you going to be there on Saturday? I might. Likely there or MRG. If you are there, do you go to Allyn's at 10am to see if anyone shows up?

The best run I skied all day was slide brook from North. 12" - 15". Yeah baby!

It was definetly sweet! Saw the line @ Super Bravo so we decided to hit G.H. and traverse over to Castlerock. It was awesome.

I think that plan kind of died early in the season. Timing is tough. Saturday, I hope to be on the HG around 9 and in the Paradise woods by 9:10. After that, all bets are off.
We should meet in the CR pub after skiing, now that heavy season is over.

I'm coming on a bus trip so can't hang around too much after lifts close (though who knows if I'll make it through the whole day...). I don't actually know 100% I'll be at SB, but their normal plan for Saturday is SB or MRG (people get to choose). If I know I'm meeting someone, I'll go to SB, otherwise probably MRG. I doubt I'll be on the slopes by 9, but I'd be in the Paradise woods eventually

If we can't arrange a meet-up time, what do you wear? I have a navy jacket, black pants, black helmet, black and red Volkl skis in dire need of replacement, and am about 5'7" (I know, doesn't really make me stick out).

Friday night could see some more accumulation. Stay tuned!
