  1. Got 10 days worth of groceries for 5 (4 adults 1 teen) by 8:30. No lines. No muss. No fuss. Nice squall when I came out. The wind is strong
  2. That’s harsh. May accumulating snow here seems to happen every 15-20 years.
  3. A friend of mine who is part of Wachusett’s snowmaking crew was skinning yesterday. He said a decent number were there. 8 feet on some parts of some trails. Very skiable.
  4. My son is home on spring break and is working 3-8 today.
  5. Berkshire East was making snow last night/this morning. Great effort by them. I wish Wachusett had taken advantage of the cold nights/mornings
  6. I did the snowfields back around 1992. Pretty neat stuff Meanwhile down here in Mass, we tried Wachusett this afternoon. Three runs and we bailed. Awful ice. They could have run the guns since Thursday night (and were posting they would on social) but nope. Pure porcelain. So we headed out
  7. Local XC area near me (Windblown in New Ipswich NH) closing after this season. Very nice place with great owners. He has been running it for 50 years and wants to retire, his kids don’t want to run it.
  8. At least it has gotten cold enough for snowmaking again at Wachusett. They have kept the trail count up most of the winter.
  9. Our son is working his last shift for a little while at Wachusett. He says he has never seen it so busy before. Nice bluebird day and 5.5” new in a long weekend -= ants
  10. Nice Chris. Great day for it. A bit windy though.
  11. I’m thinking a little rain transitioning to light snow. I’m heading to Loon and am hoping to avoid some rain.
  12. We are doing a bus trip to Loon this coming Saturday. Good news, they received 7” of snow from this current event. Bad news...rain incoming
  13. I get bombarded with their ad on FB every day. Can’t believe they have no snowmaking.
  14. Nice conditions in central Mass at Wachusett. Skied there Tuesday for a bit to test out the knee, then last night which was a bit icy, and then for a couple of hours this morning. Very good set of runs before the crowds built up. Heading to Loon Jan4. Haven’t been there in 20+ years for skiing
  15. I got a nice signed copy of the James Neuhaus book of trail maps at the expo today. Really nice humble person.
  16. Nice to see my pals at Wachusett opening in Nov 15. Very early for them. A friend of mine hit it yesterday morning and she said that while terrain was limited it was pretty nice. I was able to get a Silver level pass so I might go some early weekend mornings
  17. I had a bad time on a T bar near the summit of Sugarloaf a long time ago
  18. wachusett is looking to open November 15. That might be tricky
  19. I’m guessing Wachusett starts snowmaking late next week
  20. The Epic local also includes Wildcat and Attitash. Not bad. Get it soon though
