Just waiting for someone to show up.

Or just resting?



Let me know if it worth the trip up 7.5 hour drive time. When will
Mt.Snow open or is it open?

Well, the latest tentative date is Thanksgiving Day. Stratton and Bromley
are in like state -- I picked up some gossip last night at a party. Both
are hoping to open Thanksgiving plus or minus a day. It might even
happen, too -- everybody's been snowmaking at night whenever temps have
permitted. And, as much as the daytime temps are not what we want to see,
when the sun goes down the temperature drops like a rock. I don't know
that I'd plan on Thanksgiving, but you might want to keep a weather eye
out and keep Saturday and Sunday free. It looks like we've got a couple
of storms headed this way this week, one supposed to arrive around Tuesday
that looks like it will be heavy rain, and one due to arrive Wednesday
night or Thursday morning that could be snow. Forecast for West Dover for
Thanksgiving currently says, "Snow likely, highs in the lower 30s, chance
of snow 70 percent". And then it's supposed to stay cold through the
weekend.

As for Killington, I didn't go, but you might want to check out
iheartskiing.com, which is turning into a pretty good source of
early-condition reports and rumors.


Mary, thanks for the info.
