I skied Loon this morning. For the northeast not receiving any remarkable snow since January 19th or so, the conditions were great and despite it being school vacation week, lines werent bad. Park is awesome.

i almost went down to loon today and then i was reading on the sunday river message boards about the lines at loon and decided not to.

Did i make the wrong decision? I'm itching to ski right now. it has been 9 days.

I only made a few runs before a meeting and heading back to my place to work this afternoon but while I was there, it was literally ski on to the lift on seven brothers. There was a bit of a wait on the north peak quad but you can skip all that by skating over to the other side of the lines (skiers right). Quad was ok too.

I've never heard of cannon
but I'd stay away from Killington. It's usually a huge scene. It's fun don't get me wrong but I'd say go to Loon they're supposed to be having a really good year as far as parks and whatever.

i was just skiing loon this weekend, the parks as always are great, but they didnt have much natural snow so all glades (south peak) where closed, however the rest of the runs had a good amount of man made, and there was very little ice on the rails except at the top of ripsaw, id recomend it or killington

Magic Mountain. It's going to be a powder day for Southern Vermont on Wednesday, and there is nowhere else better than Magic in Southern VT for actual skiing.

Killington. Bear mountain (one of Killington's peaks) has NO lines and has great trails off of it. The glades are amazing and you can easily find untouched snow in the trees, even later in the day. Check out the trail map but definitely go there.

Boyne has a bazillion dollars so loons conditions are gonna be good, park is amazing, even little sister is sick.  As for the line, on sunday one time the singles line on the kanc was wrapped all the way past governors pavillion, then the next run there was no one in line.

Thats mass break for you.

2-5" is all that is currently forecasted.

Further south will see more love. Magic will be the place to be Wednesday.
