It’s been darn cold this week in Vermont. In fact, I’m scared to see my heating bill!
During this cold snap, why not cozy up with hot chocolate and these short videos related to snow and skiing in Vermont?
Snow Rollers
Over the windy weekend, a rare phenomenon occurred in some Vermont fields. The fields became full of “snow rollers.” It happens when the snow is sticky and there are powerful winds. <link http: www.cbsnews.com video watch _blank external-link-new-window external link in new>Check it out on this TV news report.

The Skiing Cochrans
If you follow US skiing, you likely have heard the name Cochran. It's a Vermont family that has produced an amazing number of US Ski Team athletes — and even a gold medal. <link http: www.nytimes.com sports skiing _blank external-link-new-window external link in new>Check out this video and article about the family and their small ski area in the <link http: www.nytimes.com sports skiing _blank external-link-new-window external link in new>New York Times.
This Moose is Not Pleased
OK, maybe you've seen this one already. We hear of moose meandering around Vermont ski areas from time to time, but this one was not pleased. <link http: www.youtube.com _blank external-link-new-window external link in new>Watch a recent video shot at Sugarbush to see what happened.
