Comments | After skiing 9 runs at Mt Snow we headed for the noon opening here. We met up with NE ski historian Jeremy Davis and proceeded to ski every run here. It was the 3rd weekend that their newly installed 1800 long 400 ft vertical T-bar has been open. It was a beautiful sunny day 25-32 and the crowds came out. There was a short line at times but usually saw no one on a run. They had mixture of groomed, ungroomed powder and glades. It’s all volunteer run. They have new small neat lodge. There’s also tubing, backcountry skiing above the lifts and hiking. |
