I'm curious though if the warm weather and rainy weather (even though we had lots of snowy days) affected anyone making it to the slopes?

Come on guys, lets see some details, I want to know where you went.

Pagamony, my guess is that is a Keystone view from North Peak looking over to the Outback. But set me straight. What trail standing on and what area are we looking at. Looks like lots of loose snow laying around.

Glad you made it over 40!

Heck it even snowed one of the days... but I couldn't get a single person to go with me to TL or CV or Wisp. So I just... didn't feel like driving up by myself and hitting the slopes only to get bored after 2 hours or so of not having anyone to chit chat with.

I want to work a VT trip or two in next year as well; it's been too long since I have been back and there are some great deals (that make Snowshoe seem like a ripoff). It will be tough because my wife and sister/brother-in-law don't get much time off, and they make up our ski group. That's where a 4.5hr drive to SS (or TL/CV) is easier to sell than a 12-hr drive to VT -- we can get 4 days skiing in WV over an extended weekend, but would need more time off to get 4 ski days in Vermont because of the longer drive. If it was up to me, we'd drive up on Sun, ski Mon-Fri, and drive home on Sat.
So I am curious about your note on Jiminy? I suppose you discovered it's a pretty small place, right?

Sounds good man, in fact I bet we could get together a few people here for a trip like that. The later part of college winter break in January is a good time of year to go in a normal winter. I used to hang out with the ski-crowd in Waitsfield, right near Mad River Glen and Sugarbush (with Stowe about 40min away). That would be my pick location for a classic VT ski trip. There are some great trails at Sugarbush, and MRG is a must-visit if the snow is good (or if you don't mind skiing among rocks, sticks, etc).
Let's keep that in mind when next season rolls around.
