Just a few days before Halloween, the first big snowstorm of the season dumped as much as 30" of snow in some areas of the Northeast and knocked out power for over a week. Sugarbush, Vermont's Mad River Valley was at the north edge of the snow belt and picked up only a few inches, but it was a welcome sight at sunrise.

Several inches began piling up at Sugarbush on Monday, and while little, if any, snow was accumulating in the lower valleys, skiers were enjoying free refills with every run in the mountains. Terrain coated with a man-made base was skiing especially well again.

And by mid-December, the Old Man was able to take charge once again. Here, he's kicking off a week long snow cycle by shrouding the higher elevations of Vermont's Sugarbush in snow.

Sugarbush - My daughter (11) and I had a blast. The conditions were incredible. The mountain was 100% open and every trail we went on was in perfect shape. I can’t wait to get back up there next weekend

Sugarbush - Skied Mt Ellen on Sat 2/1 because we figured the rest of Sugarbush would be crowded. Had plenty of company but not too crowded and really great snow to play in. Sugarbush/Mt Ellen has the best groomers and snow making in New England, seriously! Mother nature gives SB a decent base and they know how to make it better. We enjoyed soft turns and no hard pack all day, especially appreciated after going the next day over to Loon in NH where it was noisy hard pack on every run.

Sugarbush - We were pleasantly surprised at the great conditions today, plenty of snow cover, no ice, most of our favorite trails to choose from. Murphy's Glade was as good as it's ever been as was Lynx North, although Spring Fling was a bit hidden under those major whales of stored man-made snow which will no doubt be groomed away for the weekend. We were happy to take a Friday off and best the weekend crowds. Maybe Saturday is a good day to ski Glen Ellen instead.
