So when do you call it a season?

Here for skiing until the bitter end! Today’s tour with @ilovepugs was actually great skiing. Friends skiing Stowe said it was a great day as well. After the tour today drove to Burlington with kids and another family and there was a snow dusting above a certain elevation as we checked out the views on the drive. We saw Bolton and a few other mountain tops had new snow, as did camels hump. which is what we experienced, walked above one level above clouds/fog and it was flurry-ing with some winds.

Just arrived at Jay Peak (skiing this week and maybe next weekend) and it is snowing!

We are on our way up to Tremblant and Jay peak next weekend into the week after. One last hurrah. Save some snow for us!

Jay Peak is where it’s at! Great choice!

I saw all the snow at Jat and wondered if you were up there! Have fun! My crew and I took the cover off my boat and washed and polished her. So, sadly, I’m moving onto the next season. Wish I’d gotten more skiing in but who knew it was going to get cold again! And my lease does run out!

I haven't skied mid-week in weeks since my little part time job is rather full time now! I am in Bethel this weekend, but it rained all day Saturday and I just didn't have it in me to head to the mountain...I stayed in the cozy house and didn't even venture over for the pond skimming. I considered skiing today, but Mr Lisamamot was not up for it, so we just went to the mountain and cleaned out the locker and went to the Passholder BBQ instead.

We still have a couple more weeks until the mountain closes, but I suspect I may be done. There is so much going on this spring!

We usually ski up until the end of May and - if it was a good snow year - June. We've skied a few times in July but more as a "we could so we did" type of thing. We'll be there the first week of May and, depending on how it skis and how my hand is feeling, we may go back for one more week after that.

If you're going to be at Tremblant, let me know. No promises but depending on the day, maybe could meet up. I plan to be there tomorrow (Monday). Maybe another day this week if weather/conditions look good.

After balmy weather JH closed today. I skied Targhee on Friday and it was a blast once it softened up under the sun. JH employee ski day is tomorrow. First time in my 20 years that instead of the Tram and higher lift, they will offer only the gondola and a mid mountain lift. I guess they are opting for dirt patches versus ungroomed refrozen bumps for our safety as per the message that went out today. Still thinking Friday was my last day. Getting hurt off the clock seems silly. Still, I did shed a tear on my last run of the season. Lowest number of ski days ever.

Yes I will be at Tremblant arriving Friday night through Monday. Maybe would can grab a coffee one morning if you are around? We have only skied a few days this season— partly due to the weather closer to home and partly due to some other commitments - my daughter joined her first basketball team and weekends were filled with games . They were county champions though! And I just got back from my first ever 5k at DisneyWorld . (Yay!) Between training for that (a couch potato without my ski legs yet) , trying to avoid injury and learning that a fall my first day of the season (nephew on snowboard ran into me) caused a small meniscus tear and cartilage damage on both knees I was a little wary of pushing too much this season. But hoping for some nice easy days this week!

You guys have had an amazing spring! If only I didn’t have company this weekend, I would head up as well :( next year!

Would love to see you again too @Jilly!

responded to you! Maybe Saturday? We drive up Friday.

We did! Unfortunately it meant less ski time. I do think that not having a season pass anywhere (for the first time in a long time!) also made me less inclined to just pack up and go. I just got a couple triple packs to local places and those took so long to get sufficient cover I blinked and the season was over. In the past we would just go even when the mountain wasn’t fully open yet.

I'll probably be there next Monday. Fabulous today! Hope the great conditions hold up.

Our last day skiing (LDS) in Utah is the last Sunday in April. My brother's birthday bash on top of Preston Peak. We skin up as no lifts are open. It's a workout (about 2 hours for us oldsters). The young ones sherpa up the beer and brats and grill. It's usually coooold and windy and there's usually fresh snow. The ski down is usually the best---we have the whole resort to pick from so we can make our own tracks down.

You're in luck, it's snowing again! About 3 inches on the railing so far. Headed home today as we promised our daughter we'd be there for Easter. Besides my legs are shot and I met my goal of more than 40 ski days.

Hello from sunny Tremblant! We are having a blast! Coverage in most areas is actually pretty good! Much better than when we came 3 Easters ago. My kids are in love with the crusty rolls and pasta station in the food court and I am enjoying a very tasty and warm bowl of tomato bisque. Also they have poutine. Life doesn’t get better.

Calling it for this season...great day today. End of season BBQ on the deck tonight!!

Final day at Alta, per usual in the last decade. But this time is a bit weird. It's snowing hard right now, with several inches expected before tomorrow. Midday it felt like spring skiing. Doesn't look that way now. April 17 is closing day for 7-day operations, although there will be a bonus long weekend with limited lifts operating. My airport shuttle is in the morning so won't be skiing. Bill will ski before he starts driving towards NM.
