Looks great, wide open.  

Last year when I drove THROUGH VT to get to NH I realized that the parts of VT off the spine are mere mortal, no more snow than the Daks or NH.

I always assumed that the West side of the spine would do better.. prevailing winds being forced up?  Does one side normally beat the other?  I think MRG is on the East side, and they get a good share of upslope.

East side seems to have better snow preservation. Then you add in a northly aspect
