They make a lot of snow, and they don't need the base that the west does because the mountains aren't as rocky.

Heading to Verbier Thursday to hit up my free days from the Epic.

I leave Switzerland the 23rd so I think April 22 will be my last day.

10 more days in the Alps should end my season nicely enough. Had a real sick early season in Tahoe after I got there November 5 and peaced for Iowa Jan 15 (and rest of the season in Tahoe was so so) so I don't mind a front loaded season really even though I have only skied 3 days since January.

Last weekend at Whiteface/Gore for me. Really bummed they closed mon-thursday this week, wanted to go a few times then.

And anyone know how Killington is doing? I know they've had a really good season, and should be open for another couple weeks I'm assuming. I'm hoping to get over there a few times after this weekend!

just went skiing in northern VT yesterday (jay peak) and the conditions weren't amazing but they weren't terrible either. snow was fast and holding up. I'm assuming it will stay open until the end of april or early may.

my local hill is still open this weekend, surprisingly.

If I get up this weekend my season will have been 6 months long, pretty stoked on that.

To rub this in even more, yesterday I skied knee deep pow and barely saw tracks the entire day (excluding peak chair). I was very optimistic about a '10cm' dump and it turned out to be one of the best days of the season!

I just came home from grouse mountain where there was 1 foot of snow in the last 9 hours and they are expecting the same amount tommorow and even more on Sunday. I expect we will be skiing well into June. Last year the mountain closed one june 27th and opened on November 15ish.
