As of 12/14:<br>Craftsbury in VT has 9K open.<br>Mont Sainte Anne in Quebec has 90K open.<br>Camp Mercier in Quebec has 180K open with 10" new snow.<br>(These...
I will second your opinion about the quality of Mont Sainte Anne in particular (I haven't tried the other two). Mont Sainte Anne has some of the most ...
Hamiot, we have to get out to the New Canaan Country Club this winter. Did you ever get over there last year? (Note to others - this is a great place to ski in...
Last year someone asked if there was a site to find out how much snow was actually on the ground. I posted some NWS sites that posted text data. This year ...
Looks like a nice site, but I don't understand how they post two different maps for the same state on the same day with very different snow amounts. Do you get...
The upper map is the total snow depth. The lower map is new snow within the past 24 hours or so.<br><br>I think Yahoo is automatically creating the links.. but...
Just returned from 6 days skiing at Craftsbury, VT in the Northeast Kingdom. It's still the finest XC skiing in New England, in my opinion. However, I can no...
The XC ski this Saturday will be at the New Canaan Country Club, leaving the parking lot at 12 Noon sharp. You get there by taking Merritt Parkway exit 38 and...
Hi--I'm trying to go skiing for the first time but can't figure out what kind of boots I need. My skis are 3-pin, but they measure 55 mm across the pin area....

55mm boots were never very common, so you are unlikely to come across any in your size. Another option might be to use your old skis and just replace the ...
I'm skiing at Gay City almost every weekend and I'll try to report back on conditions. It's been good this week, but getting thin and icy. Maybe the snow ...
We had a good ski in New Canaan Sunday. I'll be skiing Garnet Hill, near Gore Mtn. this weekend with the Kick 'n Glide XC Ski Club. Will report back on ...
The skiing at Garnet Hill, NY was great last weekend. Plenty of groomed and backcountry skiing to be had. I'd recommend the place to skiers of all abilities....
Skied Gafton Pond and the Catamount Trail last weekend. Grafton was nice, but small. The southern part of the Catamount was great. Is anybody else out there ...
I went into the Sruce Peak Shelter in VT, on the AT/LT, and did a day trip down to the Wiliam B Douglas Shelter, and back. The ski into the shelter is not bad...
Sounds like some serious backcountry skiing. What are some of your favorite backcountry trails that don't require skins or walking? I have heard there is good...
I am new to the area...the other place I have tried in VT is near where you were last...I skied parts of the Catamount trail and Stratton Pond Trail between...
I was skiing at the Grafton Pond XC Center, not Grout Pond. I have heard that the Stratton Pond section of the Catamount is one of the nicest. You can check ...
Hi- this is Phyllis responding (pcarrier2001)-<br>I never made it up to Litchfield as the skiing was great right here in Glastonbury where I live. Spent an ...
Ahhh...yes. Part of being new to an area is learning names and keeping them straight. I am still sorting out names and did not go back to double check your...
Is any one familiar with the guide book that the trail association puts out for the Catamount Trail? I have visited their webpage, and emailed them to see ...
The book is good for anyone skiing the Catamount. Almost a requirement for serious skiing of it (the trail signs are limited in spots and some jerks insist on ...
