Hello All,
I am curious to hear how crowded your mountain has been this year. I have been to Stratton every weekend since 12/2/17 this season with the exception of Jan 6th and 7th (Too cold and we had to buy a car). Here is the North East it has been cold or rainy before or during holidays. Over Christmas week it was really cold but the skiing was excellent and there were no crowds at all.....pretty much ski on all week. Last weekend we had some major rain right before the long MLK weekend. Saturday was crowded because the top of the mountain was on wind hold in the AM. To be honest the conditions were not great on Saturday and because of the crowds and conditions I only did like 7K vertical. Sunday and Monday on the other hand were pretty cold but the conditions were very nice considering. We skied on both Sunday and Monday and banged out 20K+ foot days by 2PM.
I have to imagine the accounting office at Stratton is freaking out right now as two of their three weekends must have been pretty soft ticket sales wise.
Have you seen the same thing at you Mountain?
Cheers,
Jim
