Hunter - Friday, 12/15/2006

Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it on 12/15. Sorry for the delay in posting but my business trip to Norway last week threw off my schedule. It looks like you weren't counting on me anyway so my failure to post probably caused no harm.

I'll have to hit Hunter on another day later in the season. Have fun you all! I'm jealous. It looks like it will be a good group.

Bummer madskier. There will be other trips this season I'm sure.

Can you now get to Hunter from exit 20 or is the road work still not finished?

I used the directions from Hunter's site last Friday. They say to take exit 20. I think the road you are talking about is 23A. If so, it was open. I'm sure Jim G. or DMC can confirm.

23a is open..was up there at keiths "pro ski and ride" on tuesday

Thanks for the info.

Yup. I believe the mountain road opened around Thanksgiving. I took it back to the Thruway last Friday.

Cool! Looks like they held on to Ike, Lower Crosserover, Upper East Side and Minya so we have two advanced top to bottom runs with a few variations + Belt:

With the inevitable spring conditions, I wonder if any bump lines will be setting up...

hmmm spring conditions. i'm torn. looks like a gametime decision.

**bvibert** · Dec 14, 2006, 9:34 AM

I was hoping it was going to be cold enough to blow snow tonight to freshen things up, but it doesn't look like it...

Should be a fun time tomorrow regardless!
