Spring ski conditions at Roundtop

 With temperatures nearly hitting 60 and no snow in sight, skiers have to survive in spring conditions, meaning slushy snow and soggy falls. But to many of the students who hit the slopes for the Presidents Day holiday, it was still snow, or at least, close enough.
Roundtop Mountain Resort is continuing to make snow whenever possible, but even the night temps aren't below freezing.  Some brave skiers were seen Wednesday in shirt sleeves, but only a few. Falling down on millions of tiny sharp ice cubes keeps experienced skiers in light jackets, if only to minimize the chance of being cut after a fall.

  1. Thank you for sharing information about the snow conditions in Pennsylvania. This may be the last winter storm we get. Well we can only hope!
