Sunday River is slated to open 11/14/03. Just 27 days... but I am a bit more skeptical. Snowmaking was tested this past week, but it's still too warm to make it last. I was up there last weekend, and saw no snow on the mountain. But some of the gullies above Tuckerman had beautiful white lines. Season is coming!

I was up at the loaf sunday, it was snowing all the way to the bottom of the acess road. The top was pretty white. I promptly had my first snowball fight of the winter rolled in the snow. THE SEASON IS HERE

Sunday River on Friday:

Bet the recent temps have cleared some of that off, though. It certainly is brilliant in central Maine today.

I realize I'm a bit of a late-comer to this thread, but 10/23/03 I skied at Saddleback (round the corner from sugarloaf), several runs in fact. The upper part of the mountain was a blast. I'll have pictures as soon as I can get them developed.

Probably a little to much to hope that some snow still remains with all this warm temps & rain, but can anyone confirm this? Also, on the Bretton Woods ski cam or whatever they call it, it looked semi-decent last thursday...
