Spring Skiing Commando
I am now a proud member of the Commando Ski Team . I feel so free , nothing
holding me back now . Although I'm wondering if that much weight swinging back & forth is responsible for my excessive wipe-outs or if I'm just not used to slushy spring snow . I was bummed when I saw how Mt. Snow degraded in 2 weeks with all the warm weather & rain , now maybe I agree they might be ready to close soon, not sure how much the groomers can milk it . Maybe Mary was right. Hard on the legs turning in this stuff all day long , it was wet , heavy & deep and I was struggling with it all day where I just felt off . I hate ending on a bad day , maybe if the weather changes and we get less rain and more cold i'll try Killington in 2 weeks . It was nice skiing in the 60's though :-) I need more , I want more , I will have more Capilene rules ! Thanx Bob Lee , My credit card hurts but that capilene stuff feels soooooo goooood . Oh and it takes up very little room in the suitcase and doesn't wrinkle . Almost can't wait for a freezing cold day next year , almost . Ron |

Maybe Mary was right. I thought it might hold out a bit longer, but it was an epic weekend here for rain. The snow had stood up surprisingly well to both rain and warm in the previous weeks, and had turned into corn rather than mashed potatoes, but there are limits to everything.

Snowmaking is over, has been for a month or more, and it's highly unlikely that there will be any significant natural. IOW, it's very unlikely to improve at all, but instead should degrade day to day. The question is just how fast, and the sooner you get out for your "final day", the better off you'll be. -- Mary Malmros Some days you're the windshield, other days you're the bug. |
