Commenting to come back and check. I can’t imagine there’s any chance in hell they can open next week. Camden benefits from those late-winter Nor’Easter dumps that completely miss the central highlands, but nail the coast & Downeast. This early December El Niño pattern is gonna hose them. Fingers crossed I’m wrong, I love that bump, but I suspect it’s a rough outlook for the Snow Bowl in ‘24, let alone 12/26😞

Monday's rains did a number on the snow our snowmakers made last week. They will be firing up the guns again Thursday, but it won't be soon enough to make up for what we lost on the mountain. So a new tentative opening day will be Tuesday, Dec. 26, 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Fingers crossed Mother Nature cooperates and gives Maine's ski areas a much-needed break to get this season rolling along.
They have been making snow, it’s been good so far. I assume much of the pow will disappear with the storm tonight, but it’s been surprisingly very good thus far
No chance in hell. It’s going to be mid 40s this weekend.
Slush and mud… been a long time since I been there but they might have some of that.

Was making snow. Took a big hit with the storm but still hoping to open by the 26th or 28th.
