Sleepy Hollow’s Snow Conditions

​SNOW CONDITIONS:
Latest Update:  12/11/25  7:50AM

  • Open today with a 2 km snowmaking section (10/10), and 10km of natural snow skiing (8/10 on the rock skiing scale).   
  • The ski shop is open 9-5 daily now, with night skiing open from dusk – 8:30pm Mon, Wed, and Fri. 
  • The snowmaking section is now a 1.6 km loop around Liberty Meadow, Tina Turner, Lower Saddle trail, into Molly’s Meadow and around the Triangle.  We’ve prinoth groomed the whole snowmaking loop today and it’s great for both Classic and Skate skiing.   Little pond loop now groomed, as is the Triangle section in Molly’s Meadow.   Plus we now have a 400 meter snowmaking section going halfway around Potato Farmer.  
  • For natural snow skiing we have  Liberty Meadow (8/10), Lower Saddle (8/10), Ridge Road (7/10), Bear Claw (8/10), Potato farmer (8/10), and Sap Run (7/10)  are all rolled with the ATV.  Some rocks still lurking, so please use caution on the natural snow trails.   We’ve also groomed some other natural snow trails (Bishop, Butternut, full perimeter of Ridge Road, Hinesburg Hill Loop (yesterday), Upper Saddle,  Zig Zag, etc… ).  We’ll update as the day goes on to the status of these trails today as we groom them and assess their quality.  Use plenty of caution if you decide to adventure out on these trails.

Eli’s 10-point Rock Skiing Scale:

  • 10: Should have used my race skis.

  • 9: Very nice skiing, but will see the occasional rock or icy patch.

  • 8: Very good skiing. There may be some bumps, rocks, ice or grassy spots to watch out for, especially on corners.

  • 7: Not too shabby. You might think it’s an 8, but then you snag a rock and fall on your face. It’s a 7.

  • 6: You’re out there thinking is this a 5 or a 6? Then the sun comes out. It’s a 6.

  • 5: Halfway decent skiing…. Still some rocks, grass, ice, or wet spots, but well worth the effort to get out the door.

  • 4: Meh.

  • 3: Fairly bad skiing. May be occasional patches of good skiing, but in general quite rocky, grassy, wet or icy.

  • 2: Pretty bad skiing… Not for beginners, use your most banged up rock skis…. Better than running, barely.

  • 1. I should have gone running
