Dave Pushee Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Don't know what it's like now, but.... this might help. I was at Sunday River on Friday (1/4). Coverage was awesome and conditions were great. Saturday, I was at Cannon - temps still below freezing. Sunday was at Loon. Temps in mid- 30s, snow softening up. Today stayed home in Plymouth, NH. High temp was 41. About 35 now. Tomorrow is supposed to be warmer, but I don't think it will get much over 50 in ski country. I'm going back to Loon again for some spring conditions. I think temps are supposed to start back down after tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 I was at the Rivah for the weekend and the conditions were awesome. Great cover, 100% open, etc. I found a few places where stuff was getting scrubbed, but its not bad at all. Problem is, like Dave said....its warming up up there too. Its going to rain tomorrow and Wednesday (according to weather.com and local forecasts). They're listing "corn" as their surface condition right now. Wednesday is the peak of the warm up, then its going to cool back down and be below freezing. They have some pretty hefty snowmaking abilities, so I'm hoping they'll work their magic.... In general though, Sunday River is an awesome mountain. Its going to seem HUGE too - they have 8 peaks! I wish I was heading up this weekend, I'd meet up with you for a few turns! Enjoy! PS. I remember you posting about your daughter getting a job as a Landscape Architect. Who is she working with (if you don't mind me asking). I'm a civil engineer, and we work closely with LA's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
