Brian and I were discussing tonight whether they will open this week, or try to preserve the snow for the weekend. Forecast looks a bit rough this week. If open, I'm there for about 6:30 pm on Wednesday.

Let's do the 7:30 pm meet-up at the Nor'easter sun deck again this season. Who else is in?

You are evil. Ski until closing at Sundown (10 pm). Home by 11 pm. Wake up at 5:15s so I can get to the carpool on Friday morning.

Let's see how the forecast changes over the next few days....

Exactly, perhaps this storm will explode earlier than expected and we'll be forced to take Thursday off as well...

I hope New Hartford gets puked on and we ride pow all day Thursday and then do it again on Friday. I'm seriously going to the ski shop after my 2 o'clock meeting to browse..... or maybe purchase.
