Obviously it has, you're comparing an entire coast of the United States to a single state. Pouring rain in southern Maine, but I guess it's dumping in the mountains!

I'm loving this storm, but I was skiing Belleayre yesterday and I went on a back trail and I knew of a good place to ski powder. Me and my buddy started to head into the trail and we just sank in. I never thought I would say that there is too much powder. The powder was up to my waist. If only we had powder skis. But the rest of the day was amazing.

Going on close to four feet at Killington.

I stabbed a ski pole in an untouched spot in the woods around 1:30 today, and it went all the way down to the grip. 42" pole, maybe 3 inches was showing.

Unreal. It's not blower by any means, but I am NOT going to complain. It's gnarly, super fun to rip and so much better than ripping groomers in -10 degree weather.

Another 9-15" forecasted through tomorrow. Temps should get into the mid twentys tonight which should help increase the fluff factor a tiny bit.
