105" in the last 26 days
Here's what I came up with. Please tell me if I have any inconsistencies as I was in Utah March 14-18 where we got like a foot in Killington
3/10 Su 12" wet/dense snow
3/11 M 14" upslope snow following the previous system. Wind picked up and temps dropped drying out priors days snowfall (27" storm total)
3/15 Fr and 3/16 Sa. Wasn't here for this, but my wife, kids and social media seem to agree that there was ~6" both days (12" storm total)
3/19 Tu 8"
3/21 Th 8"
3/23 Sa 18"
3/24 Su 6" (24" storm total)
4/10 late weds - 4/11 all day thurs 21"
4/12 Fr 5" (26" present torm total. Still snowing at 7:50am friday)
All total 105" in 26 days
The kicker is like 80% of people will say this was a lean winter. It snowed, just not when you were expecting it.

Re: 105" in the last 26 days
Today's snow report says "Howdy Beast Fans" again, how are we supposed to go and enjoy all this new snow now that they've done that, they obviously don't give a rats ass about our feelings. I feel totally invalidated. I'm going to spend Saturday in my safe space instead.
Don't fly Mr. Bluebird, I'm just walking down the road......

Should say "Powdy Beast Fans"! I'm likely coming up Sunday for my last hurrah for 3 days, think i'll still reap the rewards of some of this last dump? Sucks that Monday they'll close the lifts at 2 but hoping to be up top and ski down when the eclipse starts, should be pretty trippy!

Re: 105" in the last 26 days
They say they are going to sweep the mountain after the lifts close so unless your hiding at coops or something like that they aren't going to let you just hang out up top. Some real BS if you ask me but what can you do?my poor knees wrote: ↑Apr 5th, '24, 08:13 Should say "Powdy Beast Fans"!

Sure, but biggest seasonal snowfall since 17/18 which had 233 (Killington is presently at 234" as of this morning) and biggest snowfall post Mar 1 since 06/07

f*** it, I'm hiding out in the woods, lighting up and putting on dark side of the moon and skiing down in the dark in a full eclipse. That's the plan and I'm sticking with it!

Re: 105" in the last 26 days
it's been an upside down winter. certainly one of the snowiest march & aprils in memory that's given us some great days but much of that snow melts out a few days later.

don't think you'll even see the sun from the top of catwalk but the peak would be great.

Not sure about these amounts, I sat on the mogul course the whole weekend, I don't remember it snowing that much.
3/15 Fr and 3/16 Sa. Wasn't here for this, but my wife, kids and social media seem to agree that there was ~6" both days (12" storm total)
