The sickest powder day ever at Sugarbush?!?

Published on February 19, 2009

I don’t know what happened Friday night, about 6-8 inches fell around town, starting around 3pm. But somehow up on the mountain they got FEET of the fluffiest snow I’ve ever skied. No wind or anything, just some of the lightest and fluffiest snow you could ever ski gently fell from the sky.

Patrol called it 18-24 new but I’m 6’3″ and it was waist deep in the woods where I could find un-tracked snow (beautiful kids & daycare cutting into my trail-freshies in the morning).

Win Smith, Parki, and myself have been skiing Sugarbush a long time and all agreed it was the one of the best days ever anywhere, which is saying a lot. Simply have never skied snow that was so deep yet so light.
