Not having anything better to do today, on a rainy-sleety-35-degree day here in beautifull Waterville Valley, NH, I took a look at the www.gunstock.com website, and was slightly surprised to see how bad the report is there.

February 25, 2010 Gunstock conditions as reported

19 out of 55 trails open which is 37%

Feb 17 ........ 6" snow
Feb 24 ........ 6' snow

Base 18-36"
......
That's pretty bad, just 19 out of 55 open on Feb 25.

Waterville has about 44 out of 52 open, which is hard to believe. It's probably a good idea to not trust ski area reports when conditions head south, especially just before a weekend, when most business occurs.

So, a big hats off to Gunstock, where conditions may be rotten, but at least their website seems to tell the truth and admit this.
