I skied this weekend with my 11 year old grand daughter. It was fantastic but by 1030AM the crowds were wild, parking lot full, sunny, about 25 degrees and great skiing. On our web site we will post a photo taken Monday of the mountain and last night, Tuesday night/wednesday morning the mountain received about 8 inches of powder. I couldn't make it to the mountain but a client expressed his opinion by 'Oh Wow!!!'. I will ski tomorrow morning and give you an update.
Crowds are small, weather is cold enough for man made and mother nature has been very good to us so far. I have had to plow the driveway two times so far this year. I plowed the second time in late December last year.

Vacation?
The following information has been reprinted from the Stowe Mountain Resorft newletter. They also annouced that they have received 6-10" of natural snow this week and snowmaking has been on all week with temps in the 20's each night. They plan to open on November 21 or earlier. Temperature forecasts for the rest of the month seem favorable for continued snowmaking.

Things to Do, Nov 2007
Among the things to do in Stowe between Nov 1 & Nov 14 are the following:
Tonight, Nov 3 is the Hall of Fame celebration of the Mt. Mansfield Ski Club which starts at 530PM at the Midway Lodge. Lots of fun, huge silent auction and honoring the late Peter Ruschp, who for over 30 years headed the ski school program on Mt. Mansfield.
Nov 9, 6-10PM. Stowe Education Fund Barn Dance & chilli cook off fun raiser!!! Call 253-9900 for information
Every Thursday night is Gallery night. Ten leading art galleries remain open late so the public can visit after work.
Nov 15 at 7Pm Film Festival at the Helen Day Art Center with the showing of "One: The Movie".
Nov 7, book signing with author Shawn Kerivan at 730PM at the Stowe Free Library.
Nov 12: Vermont Ski Museum: at 330Pm "Memories of the 10th Mt. Division"
Skiing should start about the 17th, weather is turning cold and snow making has begun so the mountain should open on time. Hope you are planning to enjoy Stowe during the early season skiing which generally is some of the finest, certainly the warmest until March and usually not crowded.
During the winter I will try to post at least every other day and let you know what conditions are like as I ski at least 4 mornings a week, sometimes more.
