As of 7:30PM 29 May there was still about 10 yards of skiable (the remains of the start ramp they heaped up for the rail jam early in the month), good for an easy handful of smeary freeheel junkboard parallels, no hop-turning required. I'll be hitting it again around 7PM today for a quick drive-by. Best access is to park at the fire-road gate next to the power substation, since the slumping ramp remaining reaches the road, thus completely avoiding the potential fine for hiking on ski trails. (The gate has been open all spring- with a truck or a high-clearance car those sufficiently brazen could even drive to snow and cut 3 minutes off the "tour".) Prospects for June are looking very favorable- given the current depth & density it can probably go another week or more before having to downsize to skiboards! No pics or video to share at this time, but I'll bring something to document rare June turns at WaWa next week. dana - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - SkiVt-L is brought to you by the University of Vermont.
