Boy oh boy oh boy have we been CRANKING at the bowl of late! Congratulations to the Middlebury Class of 2024.5′ who enjoyed a wonderful ski down this past Saturday 2/1. Check out the pictures all over social media, it’s a tear jerker for sure!
In terms of weather this week, it’s a BIG week for snow and a weird one for temperatures. Fingers crossed that the clipper system moving through tonight delivers but we should be expecting 4 inches of fresh fluff to be on the ground tomorrow. Temps warm up to the mid 20s tomorrow before living in the teens through the weekend. And SPEAKING of Super Bowl Sunday (I know it’s sacrilegious, but I do think it’d be cool for Mahomes to go three in a row, I’m making zero friends with that claim), Mother Nature has us penciled in for a date with hopefully another 8-10 inches. Throw a spoon in the freezer, wear some inside out PJs, and brave the drive, because knocking on wood it’ll be deep. If you haven’t been skiing the woods, god help you because everything is skiing really well as we enter prime time Vermont winter, our base is top notch!
In terms of events this week, we have a quieter one but all the classics are coming at you! Friday is the big day with Ski Bums Racing in the afternoon followed by Friday night skin club! Sunday will be the Danforth Cup Slalom on Ross, so look out for that! Next weekend though will be a big one: Middlebury Carnival comes to town with Slalom on Friday and GS on Saturday. For those of us working the mountain, it’s our Super Bowl weekend, and we’re stoked.
That’s all for now, folks! Enjoy the ripping and freshies!
