36` and partly cloudy bob with the sun melting last nights 3/4" graupel, sleet, snow mix. bush snow bridge is for the lift mechanics snowmobile access as they returned to work on Monday. It is not for a possible reopening.

Pretty cool to see all of the trails wall2wall this am

you can thank me now. bonus points that i dinged both pristine front alloy rims for first time (in nearly 5years) inside 6 days...that should be good for some bonus upslope...i hope!

[MyNameIsAugustWest]

Yesterday was another all-time spring touring day! I agree with the others here in that I'm amazed at how much coverage is still left on most of the trails - beautiful sunny skies, smooth and surfy conditions, all around great time.

Great day at smuggs.

[AyoBeng]

Other side of the Notch still cold and dry at 3:00.


^ Also, not a snowmaking trail.

Between the legs skin track stoke - unknown hiker prints ... appeared human

Cat and I rolled out after a leisurely breakfast and wandered over to the base-o-the-Rock with skis shouldered. Ran into a couple we met last Saturday that were intrigued by my Rock tales from the week and were headed up.
Cat thought they should have taken their skis off before going down the new snow over dirt.
We waxed the skins vigorously before heading out and only laid skis on new over old without a problem




Ran into some friends base-o-gate, one of whom was involved with the TC Mt. Washington incident, and got the news of "10-12" and flat with no wind blown snow summit" Boing!




Cat thought these would be helpful at the bottom, always take a last look around before you leave a comfy cabin




Still plenty of lanes open








Back to the top for an OG, about 10 people and a couple of dogs dawdling around getting ready to ski. Quick transition and of we went for another clear run.
Back up to Bravo for some track farming
Ran into another bud and when I mentioned the skins he said "they were there Wednesday". After some discussion and that he was going back to the top and would collect skins and thy to find an owner through SM.









Skins on and up and over to Eriksens for a run. Was nice last evening with deep corn, todays soft snow was frosting,






Hiked up some more to GH, kept a watchful eye out for the Sow and cubs we spotted yesterday, bear was very large.



Mountain still under clouds and some fresh graupel falling, maybe 5 or 6 minutes of sun during todays tour that were immediately felt on the body and would quickly have cooked the snow.






ULLR feeling pleased with the days efforts parted the sky for a brief window to ski back down and end the day. Thank You
5489' of fun was had. Skiing is fun, beer is good!









Our morning footprints on the right, circle is complete






Life is Good!

where was that? looks like there's a lot of winter left somewhere...

[akokskis]

Looks fun, but gotta ask - why bother bringing the helmet if you're not gonna wear it

Feels like the moto guys who stop as soon as they cross the bridge into NH to remove their helmets... right, live free or die...

nice! i had followed some tracks week before last. i marveled at how well they matched my stride, gave silent thanks to the breaker of trail.
then saw the big claw marks. hoped trail breaker was a sound sleeper

[Moeghoul]

Pukin in the notch, approaching 2" at the house. Stoked for a morning session tomorrow.

Impressive snowfall ^^

Only an inch bob this AM and 30`.

Watched an early morning skier lay first tracks on Steins. get after it before Sol cooks it.

Two skiers played tracks on Ripcord, one old school tight turns and one that made eight arcs. Both currently skinning back up the headwall, setting their own skin tracks.

[buckethead]

^^^ DANG!
sadly the uphill-friendly hills in my state are essentially bare.

^^ hey moeghoul! hope you got some good turns in for the rest of us!
cheers!

Who gives a shit, it's a closed ski area in May.
