thursday at the cat: tremendous, the best i've seen in my 5 years of skiing for coverage... there is not one unskiable inbounds line at cat...everything was open with nary a bit of ice at all, except wicked hardpack at the top of liftlion and gondy line... the line under the triple ( feline ? i'm not sure ) is loaded and you will conk your head on the idle liftchair if you are not careful.... my focus is on bumps right now, but i have to assume the sick bird forest skiers have even better ( if thats possible)... temps about 30 and cloudy cover hung around all day... no wind at all... this place has an unreal amount of snow and should be able to go to may 1st with ease!!!! i heard an ad that said " wildcat expects skiing through april 17 " .. please , if you are on the east side of <BR>I-93, and feel like skiing , go to the cat and tell em you want em to stay open.... the spring snow is gonna be insane there... give em a reasonto stay open!!! <BR> loon on friday: woke to about 5 on the ground and it was dumping... they ended up with around 10... overall conditions are very good with packed powder pretty much the dominant... bumps on flume were unattainable since the uppermountain lifts were closed by 10am due to wicked winds ( it was legit this time, i have to admit) bumps under quad getting really big and were loaded by 2pm... the place was deserted by 1pm... only negative is at 4am this morning my commute back to city appeared to reveal that at some point, the precip changed to rain... groomed should be great, bumps may be tricky on weekend... loon did a really good job on their beg/interm tree run off of the seven bros lift,,, i never even bothered this year but fri presented opportunity and the forest was a pleasant shield to the chaos going on outside on-piste... i can only imagine what it must be like to ski the forest in legit land like jay and smuggs and stowe, with competance and confidence, like some of the sick birds who regularly check in here... someday!!!!!!! loon has announced april 22 as closing date... east of 93... go to the cat!!!!!!!!! PLEASE
