Because it was so cold this season, we had a lot of clear days. (You're lucky I didn't post all 63 pictures.)

This year? 63. We're closed now. February 10

Some other good pics. January 30: February 5:

Actually, I don't have heated boots, but they are toasty when I put them on my feet. Also, wind chill is not actual temperature. As long as no skin is exposed, you're fine. There was only one day this year when my feet felt sort of cold (it had been warm and sunny the day before and this day was cloudy, and I'd dressed for the prior day), and I never lost feeling in my toes. It's a matter of layers. They will shut down the lifts here before it's too cold for me. I do use a double face mask, I do wear two layers of long underwear, I do have a down layer as well. It also makes a difference where you ski. If you're riding a lift with wind in your face the whole ride up, you might get cold. But there are always lifts in some direction that are less windy. The very worst lifts for lack of protection from the wind are 1 and 5. Both can be brutal!!! Especially as they come up over the final rise. Finally, where and what you are skiing can either cool you or warm you. Cruising the blues at Warp 9 will make you cold. Working hard in bumps, trees, powder, etc. will heat you up. You learn all these things when you ski up here. We normally have about 10 days to 2 weeks of super frigid temperatures. This year it was more like five weeks. I skied plenty of days where the Summit temperature (not the wind chill) was -14. Good times. I prefer those days because no one is here and the super cold air makes Glacier seem super close and we get that diamond dust sparkling in the air. By the way, there's projects in the works to expand lift-served terrain: https://us1.campaign-archive.com/?u=8bfee85ec43c6496c2d381e3f&id=a048d110be

March 5

You timed it pretty well, by the way. Missed most of the frigid days (which I personally live for, but that's me) and yet the snow wasn't gummy yet. Things went downhill rapidly after March 12.

March 8

I have this down as a "zero chair" day as well. Got better later, and even had a snatch or two of blue sky. Where did you go in a tree well? I'm sort of surprised you found one, given it was a low snow year and the snow was pretty dense, either dry and extremely fine, or wet and compact-able most of the time.

I was there this day as well. Notes say I had to tell myself not to get cocky. Another gorgeous day!

I was there, place was empty. Great day! The main lift opened late, but that was fine. Flat out gorgeous day!

PennLive.com: Here's what new at Roundtop, Camelback, Liberty and more ski resorts in Pennsylvania. https://www.pennlive.com/expo/life-and-culture/erry-2018/10/065606b1971974/heres-what-new-at-roundtop-cam.html I'd be interested to see this new Scarab trail and how much it's just a rebirth of the old cross mountain trail.

Still winter and we're closing Sunday with 150+" base.

April 2. Full on winter for the last three days. Single digits and howling wind and nice dry powder.

Perfect morning corduroy.

It's not always foggy. Yesterday and today.

Not often. Probably post more here. I'm on Pugski. I looked at some others, but really nothing has clicked.

Yes. Having a bad, bad year personally. The skiing is great. But I'm having a ton of migraines and my brother died, so have not racked up much.

No surprise. I'd never stay there again. It was back when Siblet was racing and the team stayed there.

Omg, have stayed at the Royal 7. Did they ever have a maid do your room? Probably ten years ago, it seemed to be an issue.
