Both of those count. I skied rock pepped glacial shit snow in the Tetons a couple weeks ago (to complete 12 months of skiing at least once /month) and really hope Rocktober brings better conditions to Wyoming. I'm super jelly. But early snow in these parts can easily spell PERSISTENT WEAK LAYER and wreck havoc in the snowpack all season long...

I'm in this boat. But at least compared to last year's winter on the east coast theres no way this year could be any worse. I'll probably just be more selective about which days i choose to ski. quality over quantity.

Looked like you had some great pre season turns ChasingFlakes, nice one!

We didn't get any snow from mid August til mid September. Looks like you're having a blast! Wish I had that good coverage with good terrain

All you who already have snow are so lucky. Here in south western PA were lucky to get the resorts open in mid-late November, if then.
