We're Ready, Are You?
Winter!
While Vermont weather has been a little bit slow to turn to winter, other areas are getting more than their fair share of snowfall so far this fall. Reports in the western US and Western Canada have the early season indications that it is going to be another great year.
Come see us this holiday weekend and get your equipment dialed. Whether you are headed west, or want to get ahead for the impending ski season here in the east - we are ready for you. We will be open until 2pm on Thanksgiving day and have our best selection of the season to get you and your family outfitted with all that you need.
Come get the best deals on seasonal rentals, boot fitting, clothing for the whole family, as well as ski tuning over this Thanksgiving weekend.
We are going to have the whole team here all weekend to take care of all that you need.
We sincerely believe that this year will be another GREAT snow year here on the east. It's La Nina again after all.
See you soon - The Crew at the Norse House.
It's coming. Promise.
Be ready.

OVER NINE FEET OF SNOW!
(and it's only the 22nd...)
Mother nature sure has made up for a slow start to the season here in southern Vermont! At the start of the season back in November, things were looking rather bleak with regard to the prospect of snow in our immediate future. We had warm temps and absolutely no natural snow on the hill at all. The mountain seemed as if it was barely open on the first weekend. For the next few weeks we had some good snowmaking temperatures and the Stratton snow farmers did what they do best and really did lay down a good amount of snow on the hill. Things were looking slightly up for the Christmas holiday when a lot of people take their first extended ski week or weekend here in southern Vermont, but from a natural snow perspective there was still no action. We heard many tales of huge dumps of blower pow out west, yet none of these weather systems seemed to make the cross-country journey to hit us here.
Just after Christmas, however, the weather seemed to take a 180 and head in the right

Despite the early season rain and warmer temps, the mountain is in excellent shape! I was out skiing the past two mornings, and the conditions are very good on everything that is open. The snowguns are blowing at full-blast on everything that is not open; and we hear that there will be a lot more terrain for this upcoming Christmas weekend!
Most everything is groomed to absolute perfection, except World Cup, which is starting to get bumped up and can be great fun in the afternoons. The Sunriser Supertrail opened Saturday Morining and is also in great shape. Middlebrook is in excellent shape, with great coverage from wall-to-wall and groomed quite nicely. It looks like Bear Down is on-deck and ready to open in the next few days. With all this
