Excellent spring skiing! Sugarbush certainly had small patches that were icy or bare but most of the southern trails were in decent shape for rock skis. Take extra caution on the big downhills. Surprised by how much snow is left- get out while you can! We parked at the Onion River Rd trailhead and skied from L-K-J-I and back.

Plenty of snow still hanging around. The skate deck is squishy and slow, but with the a dusting of fresh snow and more reasonable temps the past couple days. Classic tracks are icy and fast, but relatively free from debris and bare spots.

Skied onion river, oberg, and to homestead. Really nice with the fresh snow. Oberg was a little bumpy, onion river was best.

Went out for a ski up Onion River Road in the afternoon when temperatures were in the high 30s expecting typical spring conditions but I was pleasantly surprised at how firm the base still was, and we were first tracks of the day so it was groomed recently and skied beautifully (using my warm snow skis). I am hoping they regroom with the freezing temperatures then I would attempt the other trails (Homestead, Oberg, Picnic).

A beautiful day to ski and excellent conditions. I think the inch or so of snow that we had early today made a lot of difference. Classic tracks were in great shape, and although perhaps not groomed recently, the little extra snow kept conditions from being icy. Very warm out, so melting has begun. But it was fantastic to be out!

A+ conditions. Freshly groomed today on what appears to be all trails. Did outer perimeter loop (65k) and corduroy great throughout. Tracks full depth with no debris. One small area of exposed ground near top of Carlton peak, easily avoidable. Used B skis but would have been completely comfortable with good skis. Thank you groomers!

Perfect crust! Great conditions around sunset from the moose fence trailhead. Skied maple and upland loops, super fast. Tracks looked nice too.

Fantastic! Great coverage. Excellent grooming. Skied 12:30 pm - 4:00 pm from Britton parking lot . Used B skis but could have used good skis. Onion River Rd was beautiful corduroy, The classic tracks were great. Daytime high was 26, so no melt today. Should be great on Saturday and hopefully longer!

First time at Sugarbush and immediately became a personal top-10 trail system. Skied the picnic loop, Mt. Oberg and Onion Creek Road. Picnic loop had minimal tree trash and conditions were fast (especially on the descents). Mt. Oberg had slightly more dirt and tree trash but conditions were overall decent. Onion Creek Road was excellent all the way to the top. Fortunate to have such great conditions in March!

Skied the maple loop and upland trails early afternoon. The warm temps are making it feel like spring, but the grooming was solid. Some pine needles on the loop but pretty easily avoidable. The snow was pretty slow and wet. There was resistance pulling out the pole with every plant, but happy to get a few miles in.
