The New England ski season may be winding down, but that doesn't mean spring showers—and spring powder turns—are out of the question. Several ski areas in the region have seen a significant refresh this week.
"If you took your snow tires off, audibly wished for 75 degrees and sunny, put away your snow blower for the year, or went looking for bathing suits at TJ Maxx—to that, Ullr calmly said 'hold my beer,'" Jay Peak Resort, Vermont, wrote in its morning snow report.
For Jay, it's been a memorable season. With 457 inches of snowfall this winter, totals at the resort have reached more than 100 inches above average. For a time, the Vermont mountain was outpacing Western destinations like Alta Ski Area, Utah, and Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, Wyoming, in total season snowfall.
Yesterday, Jay shared footage of new snow piling onto a truck on its Instagram page, documenting the effects of what it called "winter sprinter."
The resort's 48 hour total is 12 inches. A similar story is unfolding at
Sugarloaf Mountain, Maine, which, according to its snow report, picked up an extra two inches for a total of 14 inches in 48 hours.This almost certainly goes without saying, but it looked all-time.
