Greetings Stowe Snow Pros,
Tomorrow is shaping up to be a powder day, with 8"–13" of heavy, wet snow in the forecast. A few friendly reminders as we gear up:
Getting Here Safely
Locals love a Pow Day, expect early traffic.
Give yourself extra time for arrival.
Drive with caution: slow down, increase following distance, and stay alert.
Walk with Caution: Slippery Surfaces may exist under the snow surface.
Wellness Check
It's the tail end of a holiday period, how are you feeling?
Fatigued?
Frustrated?
Rundown?
Recovering from illness?
These are normal phases in our line of work, but they impact sharpness and focus on the hill. Connect with each other and share what helps you work through the post‑holiday “hangover.”
A Friendly Reminder
Sometimes, the best way to take care of yourself and your guests is to rest.
As coaches, you’ll have many powder days ahead. If you’re feeling any of the above, consider saving tomorrow’s turns for another day, this won’t be your last shot at fresh snow.
Keep Yourself Healthy & Ready
Get quality sleep
Stay hydrated
Stretch
Warm up
Be mentally in the zone
Whether you’re out enjoying the storm tomorrow or taking a well‑deserved rest day, I hope it’s a great one.
See you soon!
My Best,
Tim Shannon
Senior Manager, Ski and Ride School
