Forecasts up here in NY are heading steadily towards the 50s-60s, so I'm not sure I'd count on it.

PA might get snow this weekend with temps cold enough to blow some snow.

Next week it's supposed to drop again and hopefully the snow will pick back up again. Or at least they'll make snow. Just an overly warm and extended warm streak. Have hope

I hope it's done. The base at the mountain is getting bad, no storm will bring the conditions back. Give me a weekend or two more of spring conditions and get'r done. I'm sure it will get cold again, but why. Very reminiscent of 2012.

I don't get how people say stuff like this? Do you even like to ski? Tf.... Every day more in a ski season is a gift. How could you wish it to end sooner? Enjoy it. Wtf

Meh, especially for you east coast guys. The mountain biking is a thousand times better than the skiing, so get a damn bike and enjoy your nice long bike season

Well that'd be on inferno, right? So I don't see why gulch, nitro, everything else wouldn't be open right?

Infernos the only one closed, nitro, gulch, and the lower sections will be open for sure. Gulch is gonna be prime with the snow and is always empty somehow, I recommend it over nitro.

nitro is there main park under the lift, way to over hyped and always crowded. inferno is there XL park which is where the comp would be. Gulch is there best park imo and is never crowded and has typically L features

All true. Though it's worth noting that nitro is pretty long, which partly makes up for its small-medium features

Gulch is so sick tho and so much less crowded thanks to nitro being a bug light and right under the lift

the first time I came to mount snow I simply couldn't believe how long nitro was. My home hill is 264' vert. My legs were cooked

If you go Catskills call the resorts a few lost power last week. In jersey our resort still has some power outage issues for part of the resort.

I used to be like you guys, I lived for skiing for 20+ years it was all I used to think and care about. Yea I'm over it, I've been there done that. For all of you going out and getting this storm, enjoy it.
