Bummer. Think COLD people. Maybe they'll open earlier in the week. Nightime temps looks okay starting Friday Night:

Actually works for me, wife has a late meeting up in MA on Wed., so I have to stay home with the kiddo anyway. Maybe the 12th will work-out.

They should be able to resume making snow starting tonight or tomorrow night and have good temps into Sunday. Also, the Sunday/Monday icy event should give them a nice base to get additional snowmaking to stick to. Finally, according to the NWS, starting Monday night they can probably blow around the clock for a few days. I'm still pulling for an early opening by Wednesday pm.

I'd just like to get one more day in before the 12/14 Hunter gathering. Hitting the Skier's Edge hard as of late. I've been doing a speed and agility work out with the HS kids 2 days a week. I'm really curious to see how my legs feel compared to Mt. Snow earlier this month.

Skip that silly 30th birthday party and ski with me at Mohawk on Saturday night. You can always promise to go to the guy's 40th...

I've tried to work it a few different ways. We are meeting for dinner between 5 - 6. When dinner was planned for Danbury I thought I cold make it. Then there was a change of venue to Tarrytown.

Edit: Freudian slip... I typed cold instead of could.... I'm not going to fix it.

I wouldn't hold your breath for a Wednesday opening. From what I'm hearing look for a Friday afternoon opening most likely. They want to get good coverage on all the opening trails so they don't have to be blowing on them while they're open (they'll be blowing on the closed trails then). They've already got a few piles and they'll be blowing much of this weekend from what I've heard. I'll be up there Saturday morning and I'll be sure to take pics...

Turns out my wife has her office Christmas Party next Wednesday anyway so even if they are open, I'm out. That Friday night is a possibility.

I wouldn't mind sitting tight if they want to spend the week blowing the snot out of the hill, especially if they open with bumps.
