Here is what Sunday looked like. Not my video, but I hit some of these same lines, and conditions in the Bowls/Notch were the same, if not better...

Monday was also good, but has a weird rime crust (less troublesome for boards vs skis, unless very fat). Going back tomorrow, if anyone is down...
FYI - Smuggs was 12-18+" of total Blower. Bolton got even more, but Stowe weirdly only got 6-9" and the wind messed it up more over there, I'm told.

I fixed the link. Put the full Vimeo link in vs just the vid #.
That's better...

lets not forget the fact that burlington itself got 33" officially. i didn't get over to madonna on sunday, due to us candidates mainly sticking to sterling. however, i got to drop the rope on snakebite, and somehow managed to take laps of that. for a trail i normally shy away from, it tingled my face a lot that day.
went back monday as well and got to actually go out into the bowls and ski madonna a bit. found some very nice turns. in fact, found a couple of low-lying lines on madonna which hadnt been tracked at all. but those will be on hush-hush(though if you ever want to ski together i'd be willing to share).
overall, coverage is excellent! streambeds aren't filled in yet, is the only caution. besides that, the mountain is OPEN!
pete:if you're around, i'll be back up in VT with time to kill for the second half of next week. i've got skins if you do too.

Oh my, oh my. VERY nice! Lovely in fact.
We found that weird crust at Jay this weekend--worse in some places than others. Gave us a bit of trouble, but given the X-mas day rain, we couldn't complain. I'd say you did overall better though!
