It looks like roads are still beat up near Killington.

There is still work going on. Route 4 to Rutland is open
and paved. Route 4 toward Woodstock is also open and paved.
Much of the work now is shoring up the margins along the
rivers.

This map is fairly accurate. The state is still calling
"limited service" on the main routes that were hard hit.
Our point of view is that it's all pretty much open with
shoulder work and guard rail replacement going on resulting
in single lane traffic here and there.

I hope you have better luck with that than SR 39 in California. It
was washed out in a storm in 1978 and might open next year.

On the other hand, SR 330 into Big Bear only took about 6 months to
rebuild.

The sooner the better. It will make it SOOOOO much easier to get to
Mountain High that fewer people will go to Big Bear. OTOH, that would
probably mean shutting down one more BB lift :-(

The last several times I went last year, they left Chair 1 closed all
day. Before that they didn't open it until maybe 10:00. I'm hoping
that my just-begun exercise program will help out with the extra climb,
but I'm not really optimistic.

On the other hand, SR 330 into Big Bear only took about 6 months to
rebuild.

I would hope that they inspected the entire road for similar damage.
I'll be really glad not to use 38.

If it ain't one thing it's another.

Can you see the streaming video at
http://www.snowsummit.com/ski/cams-p...ive-web-cams/# during
the day?

I've tried several times and gotten various error messages. New
machine/software which might be to blame, or they're just not running
the camera, or somebody hates me.

I don't recall ever getting the streamoing video to work there. The
still cameras work ok.

Another note - the San Gorgonio hikers report frost last weekend.

I think they used flash before. Last year it worked, but it took a long
time for the initial load. OTOH, since they didn't have Chair 1
running, maybe they're switching the camera to chair 2. Or something
completely different.

Somebody posted a picture. The mountain was white-ish. Looked more
snow-like than frost-like.

Soon...

I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I lock
every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there
picking the locks, they are always locking three.
