Ward Hill this year for the warm-temp snowmaking:

Agree it's not a very big area.
The Craftsbury saved-snow is enough to spread over about 2km come November.

Over-summer snow storage is becoming fairly common for Nordic (XC) race venues. This article is a little old, but Craftsbury has been doing it for years in VT:

My 2 cents: Unattended Skis should be racked. This solves the (in my opinion) much bigger problem of a forest of skis and poles left lying on snow outside of lodges around break times. But has the side effect of solving this line issue as well. Not a hill I'm even willing to fight, never mind die, o...

The converted Handle-Tow J-Bar at Black Mountain (NH) Pat's Peak Summit Double Tenney Hornet Double (how did they get that going again?) But my final answer is: The T-Bar at Veteran's Memorial Ski Area in Franklin, NH -Apparently it was originally installed at Sunapee in 1953. When I skied at Vetera...

I don't know much of anything, but this sounds like a wicked good idea to me.

Took advantage of the 50% NH tickets to have a day at Killington yesterday. Skied nearly all day, slowly moving from Bear across to Snowdon with about 25 runs. I'd agree with most of the reports above, though I found the conditions somewhat better than the average sentiment here appears to be. The b...

Just saw this New England Ski Industry article about Dan Egan at Tenny Mountain (NH). https://www.newenglandskiindustry.com/viewstory.php?storyid=1043 Was reading along with mild interst until I saw: "Tenney plans to open on December 23 with 80 new tower snow guns, both chairlifts, and night sk...

I don't think anyone has decided to require reservations after the fact. It was always decided when passes first went on sale. It would be a form of bait and switch. Maybe not for Ikon, but other passes have had this happen. Notably Pat's Peak adding a reservation requirement midseason last year fo...

As a non-passholder I have took a day off from work yesterday to enjoy the NH/VT resident half price Tuesday/Wednesday deal, which has to be one of the best budget options going. It was my first visit to Killington this season and I was very satisfied with what I found. I agree with the three inches...

Those photos of the parking lot side look like an architectural rendering - wow! I had to check my eyes.

They're selling tickets through the 30th (Memorial Day), which is the day I'm targeting to make one last ski outing for the year.

Fiddle time!

Speaking of Stowe, Wildcat had announced tomorrow, but has now backtracked. The River opened today, but go K!
Doesn't some place in Carolina almost always open early season though? This sounds like de ja vu.

I don't know anything about POW, but I am baffled as to why multiple people have suggested a local animal shelter for donations. The OP clearly was looking for a winter or snow related charity on this SKI forum. We have no idea that OP even cares about animals, and it is presumptuous to assume so. ...
