Stratton 3/20 & 3/21

[DiMe]

Starting my TR early as I'm rolling solo straight from work (NYC) to the Green Mountains at 05:00 and may keep this going live for my entertainment and yours.  Plan to arrive in the Sun Bowl lot about 8:45, run in get Ikon pass, change and fueled by caffeine and stoke hit the snow.

Stratton claims 4" Monday night into Tuesday with light snow continuing through tonight and currently the potential for a mini system to dump another 5" for me Wednesday night into Thursday.  I am expecting gondy windhold Thursday regardless but if the freshies comes, this could get Ikonic....

Scoring in Kidderbrook area top to bottom because the inconvenience of the sun bowl to ursa lift path. I guess people forget it too. Staying at Upper Pass Lodge at the base of Magic Mountain.

Do you just pick up your 24/25 Ikon pass at any resort? They used to mail them but is that no longer a thing? I can't navigate their site on my phone right now..
