Mid-December and skiing is slim
Despite a thin covering of snow this morning, barely covering these holly berries, there still hasn't been enough cold weather to make much snow for Pennsylvania ski areas. Roundtop and Liberty are both expecting to make big snow tonight, but neither have announced openings yet. In Pennsylvania, according to Ski The East, only Camelback is open-- with 98 percent of its trails challenging skiers.
Further north, nearly everything is open, and Killington in Vermont has been raving about its snow for a month. In New York, skiers at Whiteface will face temperatures of about eight degrees. And in Canada, well, it's Canada. It's cold, snowy and beautiful. At Mont Sainte Anne near Quebec City, at right, skiers won't see 32F the entire week as they glide over a nearly four foot base.
