Summary
While the base is thinner than usual, the forecast offers hope: 0.62 inches of new snow is expected in the next 24 hours, increasing to over 3 inches by the five-day mark. These accumulations could freshen up conditions considerably as holiday-weekend traffic builds. For now, expect hard-packed snow and wind-scoured zones, especially across the Headwall and upper Bowl. Skiers should exercise caution on steeper terrain due to variable cover and early-season hazards lurking beneath the surface.
Recent headlines paint a stark reminder of the Ravine's volatile nature. An avalanche earlier this week swept a snowboarder downslope, captured on webcam, while a tragic fall claimed the life of a UVM student—reaffirming the need for avalanche awareness and proper backcountry preparedness. With an advisory currently in effect for the White Mountains, those venturing above tree line should be equipped with beacon, probe, and shovel, and check the latest avalanche forecast before heading out. Despite the risks, the Ravine is still drawing diehards carving early-season turns—just remember: the mountain decides when you're done skiing, not the calendar.
