"Mount Washington Alpine Resort Delays Opening

Upon first glance of the Resort’s snow cam, things are looking fantastic, almost good enough to open. If you look a little closer however, the depth gauge becomes quite apparent. “You get a good idea of the snow depth when you look at the steps,” explains Resort President Peter Gibson. “When the Guest Services Kiosk steps are fully immersed in snow, we’re closer to our opening date.”

Upon further inspection of the snow cam, the story unfolds in front of your eyes. The concrete steps are trying to hide themselves for the coming winter but they’re not quite there yet. The resort is now calling for a day-to-day re-evaluation of the snowpack. Mount Washington will open its lifts and doors to the public as soon as conditions permit.
As of Monday afternoon, the mountain was wearing a winter coat of snow at an average snow depth of 15 to 40 centimetres. An average of 90 to 100 centimetres are needed to open most of the mountain’s terrain...
 ..Mount Washington’s planned opening day was to be Thursday, December 8 th. That plan is on hold as the weather builds around Vancouver Island, threatening to dump “the big one” on the mountain any day now. "
