1204 ET - Vail Resorts' challenging snow conditions have continued, with average national snow levels tracking below last year's levels in both November and December, UBS analysts say in a note. Conditions have varied by region, though, with resorts in the west and the Rockies mostly seeing snowfall below historical levels, while those in the northeast, midwest and mid-Atlantic regions experiencing slightly better conditions year-over-year, the analysts say. At this time last year, Vail's resorts had seen a relatively good start to the season, especially in western regions, the analysts say. (kelly.cloonan@wsj.com)
