Photo of the Week: Memories of Winter
It was a particularly breezy afternoon, but the skiing was exceptionally good and we lingering straight through the sunset hour along the west side of the Greens. Our last climb landed us along the divide as a subtle alpen glow was fading, but while enough light remained for one last descent to the east. When [...]
Photo of the Week: Memorial Day Magic
The past weekend in the Northeast was pretty magical on many levels. It’s not often that Old Man Winter throws us a bone this late in the season. The rain that fell in the mountains prior to the changeover to snow also unleashed one of the more spectacular displays of waterfalls we’ve seen in the [...]
Photo of the Week: Thank You Old Man Winter
It was with a touch of sadness and a feeling of deep satisfaction that we said goodbye to Old Man Winter today.

By [...]
Photo(s) of the Week: Winter’s Last Gasp?
Old Man Winter’s resiliency continued to produce excellent skiing at all elevations this past week. Whether skiing fresh powder in the higher elevations (thanks to 2-12″ of snow falling Mon pm – Weds am), taking shelter from the cold wind and snow squalls, or skiing corn on some of the last remnant pasture lines lower [...]

With up to foot of mountain snows accumulating in the first week of March, followed by a good dose of spring last weekend/early this week, and then another 6-16″ falling across the mountains over the past few days, the month of March is upholding its reputation as one of the snowiest months of the season [...]
Photo of the Week: Perfect Flying Conditions

Photo(s) of the Week: Shallow Pow, Backyard Pow!
Small doses of light and fluffy snow has continued to help cushion the post-Thaw crust still lingering about over the last couple of weeks, and in many ways, the conditions off-piste have been “shallow powder” at its finest. This has been an especially fun snow condition for exploring the untracked backyard and backcountry, for covering [...]
Photo of the Week: Christmas Week Storm
The Christmas Week Storm has delivered one of the greatest gifts imaginable this week, and snow-lovers across the Northeast are making the most of it in so many ways – by building snow forts, by enjoying turns with family and friends, or by sliding into the White Room wherever the terrain is steep and the [...]
Photo of the Week: Misty Sunrise… and Happy Winter!
After several days of persistent snow, wet snow, fog, freezing fog, sleet, mist and more snow in the mountains, the sun finally shined for a few hours Thursday morning upon the highest elevations of the Northeast. By mid afternoon Thursday, clouds and snow enveloped our mountain tops once again, where we expect them to remain [...]
Photo(s) of the Week: SNOvember 2012
By the skin of its teeth, SNOvember is living up to its name again this season. It kicked off on Saturday 11/3 with a solid dusting of snow at the higher elevations across the Northeast, and by mid-week, another round of fresh snow under bluebird skies was luring greater numbers of hungry skiers to sample [...]
