    Big snowmaking last night

    My bad. On checking the Canadian radar it looks like it's a little natural snow.

    Big snowmaking last night

    Update: Tremblant is definitely blowing snow around the base area -- the Gondola cam is quite a bit whiter than it was a few hours ago. <BR> <BR>Live user-controllable cams are the shiznit.

    Big snowmaking last night

    Add Sunday River to the list of places that fired/is firing guns. <BR> <BR>No activity apparent on Tremblant's web-cams. <BR>Nothing visible at Sutton either. <BR> <BR>I have Monday off in lieu of Tuesday. I'm hopeful I'll be able to ski somewhere by then. Hiking for manmade just feels so wrong.

    Bethel Backcountry

    In truth, I don't know of any skiing up there, but if you like tight trees I'm sure there's probably something on either side of the road in Grafton Notch. Baldpate or Old Speck. I'd suspect the better skiing would be lower down where there are hardwoods. I've never looked at the terrain with...

    Opening?

    Which was really silly of them, seeing as it's raining there today and will likely be in the 50's tomorrow.

    Opening day "contest"

    For what it's worth, Rte. 27 from Eustis to the border had some of the worst curves straightened out this year, and next summer they will be doing more work on it. <BR> <BR>It's still one of the most fun 20 mile drives there is in the northeast. In the summer. During the day.

    Apologies to Anon

    Just a weather note: Unless something drastically changes, snowmaking probably can't start anywhere in New England until at least Nov 8-9 unless we get some amazingly dry clear weather leading to severe radiational cooling. It's a simple matter of the freezing levels projected to be higher...

    IT'S NOT ABOUT THE MONEY!!!!!

    Frank, supposedly Sugarloaf already is profitable and contributes a small amount every year to ASC's bottom line. <BR> <BR>While they may have 15 lifts ( a quick mental count only gives me 13, but I'm probably missing some), not all run all the time. The upper-mountain T-bar only runs on days...

    Podunk - American for Ste Je Ne C'est Pas. (Surely there must be a one or two villages with that name that in Quebec) ;-)

    Sugarloaf 10/24/03

    Frank - thats all me from various different computers... <BR> <BR>Marc - I lurk here a lot, I just don't often have much to contribute. The condition report for North Podunk, ME isn't really all that interesting most of the year.

    Sugarloaf 10/24/03

    I wrote a message and now I don't see it, so I guess I'll try again... <BR> <BR>Pics here: <BR>http://www.pbase.com/chromer2/loaf102503 <BR> <BR>Temp at the base Saturday morning was about 38-40. Started skinning barely 100 feet above the base of the superquad. <BR> <BR>Had lunch in...
