Dear Vermonts, skiers, and/or boarders,

How are the mountain conditions up yonder? My buddy was trying to rent a place for his birthday, but I didn't know what to tell him regarding how good the mountains were. He was thinking Killington, but I saw it was supposed to rain this weekend.

If anyone can offer any insight, I would be very grateful. Thank you in advance.

- Joe

It's rough up there man. I was at Sugarbush yesterday, prior to today's washout, and while the snow was soft, coverage is still very light. Unless you are skiing groomers/man made areas of the mountain, coverage is sparse. I imagine today was pretty bad for everyone in the NE, and the further south the worse. It depends what time of skiing/riding you like to do, but conditions aren't great...

When is your buddy's birthday? Washout yesterday, but the week ahead holds promise for ongoing snow showers and cold enough weather to make snow 24/7. No dumps forecasted in the next week, but good enough that by next weekend, groomers should be on point.

Killington pretty much sucks ass in general. The best place to ski by far in Vermont is Jay Peak, and it's not super far from HF. It's also much cheaper than most places. At this point in the season, the further north you go the better conditions should be. Greensboro looked like a ******* winter wonderland when I was there last Wednesday. Stowe is an amazing place to ski, and I think they just got some fresh stuff (someone saw El Chapo and Sean Penn driving a big rig into the resort the other day)

Bunch of my buddies are going to Jay this weekend. The weather forecast looks pretty good and should get a few inches of fresh powder on Saturday.

There's nothing like a fresh Pow Pow day at Jay Peak, if your car can make it up the road. Drinking/smoking on the trails there is practically a rule.

I am at Smuggs right now and thusfar the Hill Farmstead releases have been more exciting then the trail conditions this week. The rain washed away all the gnars I intended to shred. Things should be shaping up tomorrow and Wednesday.
The disc golf course there is sick. So there is something you can do....
 
When is your buddy's birthday

Birthday is the 20th. I mentioned heading further north, but the rest of the crew isn't feeling the additional travel distance from NJ. I will likely be solo heading to HF. As much as it will bother the girlfriend, if I am within 2 hours of Taylor Rd, you better baleedat I'm getting up there.

It's rough up there man.

Thanks for your input. Really appreciated. My buddy will like that I'm consulting with a mets fan. He's from Bayonne and that has been his nickname since Day 1, freshman year at Rutgers. Hoping that the cold week will be good from grooming. I may be able to get discount tickets at Killington.

We're getting snow in Stowe, Tuesday day/night, Wednesday day/night and it'll be cold all week.

And we're surrounded by beer.

I wish we were staying up in your area, but I wasn't going to push for it. I will be driving through at some point. Trying to convince a buddy who will be riding at Stowe to cut out early and I will introduce him to Hill Farmstead, but he insists on staying in Stowe ("riding > beer" was his response). He loves Heady, Treehouse, and Sip. I'm hoping he changes his mind come Saturday afternoon.

If anyone will be around to meet up, let me know. Either hit HF for noon or ride in the morning and aim for 3pm at HF.

Thanks, again, to everyone for their input on the mountains, weather predictions, Von Trapp-themed gifs, and everything else.
