Roads sucked last night pre-storm (hard-packed base on the roads from Mount Storm to T-Line.) Roads really suck right now - lots of unplowed snow and slick. It will be a long, slow drive. I recommend 4wd with snow tires.

Snow hasn't sucked. All snow, but a bit wet at times. Been puking since ~7 AM.

Skiing didn't suck today.

They got the 12". Pretty much everything (and I mean everything) is skied off (if you are looking for pow.) Or scraped off by technique-challenged boarders who only know how to skid straight down a narrow slot in the trees, removing all snow and leaving ruts across the hill. There are some seriously trashed sections...

Snow off the trails (and on) was pretty wet this PM. As teleman posted, once the upcoming freeze hits, likely only groomers will be enjoyable/skiable early this week until it either warms or more snow arrives.

It got warm, but not excessively warm. Based on the snow I removed from the top of my vehicle Sun AM, I think there may have been a very brief period of rain/sleet overnight. (Sat nite.) So the snow started Sunday on the heavy/wet side.

Saturday was the money day.
