Mt Abram Friend,
This morning the storm blew out and left us with snow flurries and freezing rain at the end. We didn't see the intense wind and rain like they did on the Maine coast leaving great conditions for the weekend and close to 100% of terrain to be open. The warm temps and sunshine will set us up for perfect spring skiing!

March - Week 16
Tanned faces and burnt knees were all in vogue last weekend and another great forecast is aligned for this one. Snow is scheduled to taper and the skies turn clear Thursday morning leaving us with a fresh blanket, sunny skies and temps in the high 30's for Friday, the 1st Day of Spring. The mercury is expected to climb Saturday and Sunday with continuing sunshine. What an incredible stretch of weather.

March - Week 15
March and April leads us into the summer months but it's all White Grass here at Maine's most happening mountain, Mt Abram. The snowpack is deep and the afternoon temperatures have lent themselves to some fabulous skiing and afternoon “decking”. But what makes Mt. Abram so remarkable, aside from the great skiers, riders and families we attract, a service happy staff, the great food and tunes of the rocking Loose Boots Lounge is the unique Abram variety and excitement. With the East's best learning terrain feeding the Westside Lodge, and world class grooming, it is never too late to learn or keep improving our favorite winter sports.

March - Week 14
Despite last week's soaking rain, followed by freezing temperatures, Mt Abram's OUTSTANDING groomers produced phenomenal skiing/riding and provided us with the “Best Snow In Maine”. Jeff and Chris Knight used their expertise and “reverse tilling” to give skiers, riders and tubers snow beyond what you would typically find at most mountains. The reverse tilling is a slow and tedious process that involves running the tillers in reverse rotation, resulting in beating the air into hard snow creating more powder-like conditions. With 10-12” of fresh snow in the forecast to add to our already superior skiing and riding, it all adds up to a great vacation week.

February - Week 13
A spectacular 24” snow event on Sunday was the exclamation to a superb week of skiing and entertainment. Though the days grow longer (and warmer), Sunday was a reminder that we are just starting snow season. March and April are not only capable bringing piles of snow but great days to enjoy the snow in. We have a third of our season (6 weeks) and our best skiing and après-ski entertainment still in front of us. Saturday is forecasting as mostly sunny with temps in the low 30's and Sunday looks like a chance at some more snow – keep your fingers crossed.
