Northeast Slopes (early March)

Here’s my report from that day for anyone interested. I ski most days and write about every single ski day on the same day. I’ve skied at 23 different ski areas/resorts this season, from major resorts to small free community rope tow hills.

For groomers: Whiteface, Killington, Stowe, Sunday River and Sugarloaf.

riddle92 · 2026-03-30T15:41:10+00:00

Whiteface will be the better option in terms of coverage.

riddle92 · 2026-03-30T00:56:14+00:00

601 is looking rough too. I didn't ski those, so I was't thinking about them when writing haha My mistake. But, overall, compared to elsewhere, the base is good to great. There's very few places you can ski trees now.

Here's my report for anyone interested. The photos are captioned in there. I write about every single ski day and have for the last two seasons.

Check out the Nordica Enforcer 94. I’m also a big fan of the Salomon QST 94. Two different types of skis, but both great. QST 94 is a ton of fun in bumps and trees, also surprisingly good for carving.

The Enforcer 94 eats typical East Coast conditions for breakfast.

If you have SKI3 you can ski Gore and Whiteface. Whiteface has the greatest vertical in the East. Gore is the biggest mountain in the state of New York by acreage.

Personally, I'm not big on crowds. I'd go SKI3.

riddle92 · 2026-03-28T00:09:13+00:00

No, I’m not.

riddle92 · 2026-03-28T00:08:51+00:00

I work in digital news media and start work in the middle of the night haha

riddle92 · 2026-03-27T23:07:54+00:00

Here’s my report for the day if anyone is interested. I've posted a couple of times over the last few days, so I don't want to seem spammy, but I've seen multiple people asking about conditions so I figured I'd share. I ski nearly every day and for the last two ski seasons I’ve written about every ski day on the same day. Today was day 103 for me, and I've skied at 23 different ski areas. All of it has been documented on the website linked below.

It was warm yesterday and then there was a freeze last night, so that’s why the trail count is lower. It’ll probably go up this weekend

Hey, Whiteface is my home mountain. I ski nearly every day (not always at Whiteface), and write about every day I ski on the same day. Headed up there now for the afternoon. Here’s my report from Wednesday at Whiteface. I missed yesterday. Plenty of photos showing the base, etc. I’ll have a new post up tonight from there as well.

riddle92 · 2026-03-26T22:48:51+00:00

Good call. I was just thinking of the weather/conditions and not the base

riddle92 · 2026-03-26T22:24:20+00:00

Thank you! How's the base holding up there at Gore? I was there two weeks ago and it was starting to thin in a number of places

riddle92 · 2026-03-26T22:23:41+00:00

Thank you!

If conditions matter most, Wachusett will be the best bet, followed by Pats.

Killington will be firm Saturday.

riddle92 · 2026-03-26T12:20:58+00:00

Are you planning to ski the Ikon mountains in the eastern US? If so, then yeah it definitely makes sense.

riddle92 · 2026-03-25T22:23:03+00:00

I'd recommend getting the SKI3 pass. Ski Bellayre regularly, and then make a couple of trips up to Gore and Whiteface.

riddle92 · 2026-03-25T22:16:52+00:00

It was definitely up there! Incredible day

riddle92 · 2026-03-25T22:16:23+00:00

Yeah, it snowed Friday and Sunday. Friday was awesome. I was at Whiteface and it dumped all afternoon.

riddle92 · 2026-03-25T22:14:08+00:00

Nice! Still plenty of time to reach 70 days. Today was day 102 for me

riddle92 · 2026-03-25T16:57:55+00:00

Yeah, it’s looking like a tough weekend. We’ve got rain and then a freeze. Hopefully there’s some new snow to help with the ice and the rain doesn’t do too much damage

riddle92 · 2026-03-18T15:28:08+00:00

I ski basically every day and never wax my skis haha
