Snow conditions history for Laurel Mountain
Thank you to all the snow conditions reporters who provide these updates for us.
29 February 2020
Thin coverage with wet areas underneath so poor skiing conditions. Trails a great for snowshoeing or hiking and recreating. Looks like the groundhog might have been right. However, winter's not over yet. Maybe we can get him to do the snow dance. Woot!

Laurel received 5-6" of heavy wet snow with wet areas underneath. Not enough to ski but additional snow is coming down and forecast is for more accumulation tonight and tomorrow. That said, the snow accumulation has made the forest beautiful. So skiing is not good but recreating is great. Ski patrol plan to be in the warming hut tomorrow and will be demonstrating knot tying and map reading. I don't think they plan to have any food or drinks available. We will also be doing the snow dance.

4" fluffy powder over wet icy base. Poor skiing conditions but beautiful scenery. Sunny and snow covered laurel and tree branches. Keep doing that snow dance. Touch the picture and it rights itself.

Laurel has about 2-3" powder over a mostly frozen base. Skier reports conditions are 4 out of 10. Rock skis are recommended. Keep doing that snow dance.

3" on top of icy/wet crud makes for OK skiing with wet spots abound. The weather forecast isn't helping. Are you doing the snow dance?

Laurel is beautiful but the skiing sucks. The ground is still wet underneath. Laurel Ridge reports good coverage. Keep doing that snow dance. Will update as conditions improve.

So, the sun came out which made for a beautiful day but, it ruined the trails. Still wet underneath and sticking. Keep doing that snow dance. Soon, I promise.

3" new powder over wet base. Ground needs to freeze before skiing. If you want to claim the first ski of the season go for it but bring lots of wax. Woot!
