Coldest and snowiest spring? Maybe.
Best spring skiing? No way, no how.

Last year was pretty good.

In 1997, I skied on Fathers day, played nine holes and broke my collar bone downhill biking.
Nursed it later at Peppers.

That was a pretty good year too!

great spring means great bumps. with how cold it's been, doubt we would have had the great bumps this season though this past weekend would have been off the hook.

weather-wise, this spring is following a similar pattern to 1997 when closing day was june 22. in fact with noaa forecasting 4-6" tonight/tomorrow, the similarity with '97 continues. thinking this season we might have made it at least through the june 7 weekend.

speaking of '97, think i hear barbra streisand singing ...

Longest latest coverage - maybe. The skiing itself would have sucked, nothing spring about it.

I'm coming out of retirement for this thread! This month should be the greatest party of the season but here we are :sad:
Unlike George Thorogood I don't think it would be much fun to sit in an empty parking lot and drink alone.
Thanks for the '97 video for reminding me of better times!

Here's my take on May - June '97:
