See my progress reports at <A HREF="http://members.aol.com/crockeraf/seas02.htm" TARGET="_top">http://members.aol.com/crockeraf/seas02.htm</A>, last updated March 5. The last week has been a good one, with 2+ feet of powder in the Northwest, Sierra, Utah, and Northern Rockies of both U.S. and Canada. <BR> <BR>If you're really waiting until April, powder is not that likely, but there will certainly be quality skiing many places. On the strength of a big season plus consistent spring corn historically, Mt. Bachelor would be my first choice this year. Whistler, Mammoth and Alta/Snowbird would be good choices, with the latter having the highest chance of fresh snow. <BR> <BR>I'd normally recommend a few places in Colorado too, but not this year as the base is way below average and they could lose it with a warm month.
