don't care if this is a repost but this needs to be said. Stowe on saturday Feb 25 2012 was quite possibly one of the best powder days i have ever had in any location, east or west.

Driving back from Stowe yesterday morning was rediculious. South of mile 74 the visibility was under 300 feet and the only pavement to be seen was we're cars had driven. North of mile 74 was unlimited visibility and a clear road.

... I'm still punching myself for not waiting a week. I went last weekend because the assholes at my school cancelled our break and the skiing absolutely sucked. It was shear ice. They opened Goat and it was the absolute worst trail condition I have ever seen.
I live in ct and yes, we only have had like 2 inches of snow. Whenever it snows, it rains after. Im seriously thinking of moving.

Dude I woke up at 7am to shred that morning beyond stoked. ended up sitting in a parking lot right before entering stowe from 8am till 11:30 in a broker down car. Although, when I go there it was the most amazing day ever. I took a few laps through tyro at the end of the day and there were easily 1 foot pow landings on each rail ahh it was so beautiful.

People are pumped they got some snow. Just leave it at that, you dont have try an be a dick about it. Everybody knows Wolf Creek gets a ton of snow. I guess its so small that it does fit in on an East Coast thread.

I'm just joking guy. I know the pain their pain. I just moved out to colorado from new york a month ago. I haven't gotten to go skiing yet in CO though. This season is over for me


NY was in terrible shape when i left. My home mountain was 50% open. I'm looking forward to seeing some footy
