Current Northeast Open Ski Trail and Lift Count (will update post-storm)

[fcksummer 268]

Interesting to see how everyone has done up until now. These counts will surely be dropping after this Xmas debacle. 

 

Not sure how this will format on the board so here's a direct link to the Google Sheet

Boys and girls,  this is going to be ugly.  I have now snow left in my yard in Franconia.  My drainage ditch and 600 gallon tank are full and overflowing.  The wind was the worse that I have seen yet.  The house was shaking.  I was worried about all of the glass.  The Anderson sliders fixed door is not holding up to these winds.  The tall pines were moving like 20' at the tops.  The dog was having trouble walking to go out.

Do you have a rainwater catch tank?

No. It is just a dry well for drainage.

The Magic web cam is depressing

 

 

[Puck it 309]

It is not pretty up here.  Bypass is toast. Guns are running in need spots.

[Benski 77]

Sugarbush is only making snow on closed trails and is not continuing only making snow on small part of Lower Organgrinder/Lower Jester where they made snow last week, so it must not be so bad

[fcksummer 268]

Here's the updated spreadsheet. Pulled all the data from OpenSnow. Some mountains weren't showing as updated since the grinch storm so perhaps not 100% accurate

[StraightSkis 7]

Seeing this list really proves how bad the opening effort is at many mountains. Right now I feel duped buying an Epic Northeast Pass with the goal of skiing Wildcat. 

[SkiMangoJazz 36]

I've tried to get a refund from Vail for my Epic Northeast Pass based on Massachusetts quarantine restrictions, but it doesn't fit their definition of a qualifying event.

 

 

[fcksummer 268]

Certainly seems like some mountains are scaling back on their operational costs.

[Benski 77]

I don't know about other mountains but Sugarbush has been blasting away exactly as much as you would expect given the temperatures, just not a lot of windows to make snow, and a lot were marginal so they are probably done for the season with the upper mountain. But there have been some head scratches, like Ripcord going 2 weeks with whales and no snowmaking, and some snow guns running on trails that seam disconnected from there broader strategy. Like making snow on Sugarbear Forest but waiting 10 days and opening 3 trails before starting the trail it feeds into.
