yeah dude, ontario blows. Im going to tremblant late february, and Im hoping for some powder...
but I guess at least resorts had time to make snow and get a decent base though right.  the sucky part is that its way harder to hit urban or the small amount of backcountry worth skiing on the east...

yay i'm pretty over it! yesturday in a period of 45 mins the clouds opened up and covered everything in a sheet of ice, ,needless to say i watch many people eat shit. today it looked like the world was coming to an end, freezing ran, then it started to sleet and snow this change over took place in a period of like five minutes. then i took a nap and when i woke up  the sky was blue and the sun was out but it was 50 mph winds! booo i just want to go skiing

This weather sucks but there was a good amount of snow before this. Looks pretty depressing outside my house but the mountains are much more promising. This would be such a good year if it wernt for those 3 ridiculously warm days.

even if you live in vermont or east coast its still better than skiiers who live in the midwest or arizona and get to ski only when they go on vacation

man it sucks, but i would probably do the same shit with a 4 foot base as i would a 3 foot one. gives me more of a reason to ski park and try and actually get good...

not to sound like a dirty hippie but i think its because of global warming i mean i live in western md we get a good bit of snow like 8 ft a winter most of the time more. but we had temps that were like 2 and 3 degrees without wind then 2 days later its raining like a mothafucka and then today i go out and its 20 degrees and the mountains a solid sheet of ice i could have went ice skating today thats how bad its was.
