Spring skiing in Vermont. Got sunscreen?
Saturday, April 9, 2011 at 08:55 AM
I met up with a couple ski buddies at Smugglers' Notch on Friday for an afternoon of sun and snow and smiles. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, there really is a lot of snow up in the mountains in northern Vermont! (I believe there are over 90 inches of snow at the stake atop Mt. Mansfield, for example.)
We like skiing in the glades so we hit up several of them including Shakedown and Bermuda. We only had to avoid an occasional stump or rock. It really is amazing for April.
Get out there before really warm temperatures threaten the snowpack. Oh, and bring your sunscreen!

Need to change it from Vermont Skiing Blog to SMUGS skiing Blog.....
It's as if no other alpine areas exist! You should see how well MRG is holding up!! We need more Jay coverage!
(keep up the good work - just disgruntled that I have worked all weekend!)

Ha! Can you tell my friends have Bash Badges at Smuggs??? And with the Skimeister down and out this season, I tend to go where my friends ski.
Still planning on hitting Jay this spring. We've had fun there in the spring for sure.
Sorry you had to work. I did some work this weekend, too. Sigh.
