Labrador is closed according to their website. I'm not sure when their last day open was. (Labs last day open must have been either 3/29 Sat. or 3/30 Sun.)

from the Lab website:
"Labrador Mountain is closed for the 2013-2014 season."

GA ... do we know if Hick spun yesterday?

March 30 is solid!

A great trivia question (that I don't know the answer to) what was HSC latest close ever?  April XX?

Also any further info on Lab anybody?

In other news Gore shooting for Easter.

Plattekill calling it on 4/6.

I got confirmation that Hickory was open on Sun, March 30 as their last day of operations for the season. I'll have to ask around to see if anyone has some documentation of their latest closing date on record.

Thanks man.

I'm thinking we've got to add Kmart to this list.  Crucial for NY skiers.

Killington announced their closing date: 7/4/14. It looks like they blew snow last night.

Oops my bad. I thought they closed in June last year.

Whiteface talking about closing on 4/13.  In email:

"what might be the final two weekends of the season."

Might be, but I'm sure won't be unless we get really warm weather and a lot of r*^n , which I don't see I'm the forecast.  Yes, there is some weather coming in tonight, then again Mon/Tues, but there could be some snow/mixed precipitation with both, and with highs/lows generally in 40s/20s through the 13th things should hold up well.  Maybe another event coming next Fri night/Sat morning.  Wouldn't be surprised to see them close midweek after the 13th, but the snow should be there through the end of April.  Hoping to get up there for part of the kids Spring recess, Friday and Sat of Easter weekend.

I was looking for my skiing options for Sunday on my way back home from Vermont and where I have a paid ticket (ie. Fox44 card).

Titus is closed tomorrow and Sunday will be their last day.

Mad River Glen's last day will be April 13.

I'll be at MRG tomorrow and Owl's Head QC (also on Fox card) Sunday. After this weekend, I should only miss Gore and Jay on the card. Suicide Six and Titus will be closed. All the 5 others would have been skied - 4 since mid-March.

I didn't start the listing of closing dates for Eastern ski areas on my blog yet, but I should post the list sometimes next week. They are too many hills remaining.

It ain't over til it's over. Whiteface seems to really like to that race.  My bet is on WF or Polar Peak.

Hunter has not announced a closing date on their website.  Neither has Belleayre.  IMO Hunter had better outlast Belleayre as they claim to have the best snowmaking which means that they should always be first to open and last to close.  There is definitely enough snow to get to 4/20 at Hunter so they should stay open.  I am hoping for a late closing at WF since I always like to do a spring trip there, since they keep most of the mountain open except for Kids Kampus (who cares) unlike Killington which closes down most of the mountain around this time.  On WF's closing weekend, they often have more terrain open than Killington does the same weekend.

It took me two days on and off to compile this list for what is happening next weekend in the East and finding potential closing dates. I didn't do it last week due to volume of ski areas still operating.

Let me know if you have any further information.

So here is Ski Mad World's Annual Closing Thread:

Where Are We At? – Eastern Closing Thread 2013-14 – Part 2

Go skiing !!!

Holimont is a club too.

They closed last in 2012-13 on May 1.  They are shooting for 5/4 this year.

Yes holiday is, but the public can ski their weekdays or by appointment,

I can't go to polar peak and ski

If we count polar, gotta count ski venture right?
