Wachusett Snow

Phildozer · May 12, 2008, 1:50 PM

I was driving out Route 2 yesterday and saw that there's still quite a bit of snow up on Wachusett. Considering the warm weather we've had, I find this absolutely amazing. Looks like 10th had two skiable patches on it, as did Smith.

Anyone up for some turns?

I was expecting snow photos, but all I saw were Peace Pogada stuff

Drove by Pats Peak on Sunday. Not much left there but one stretch that seemed skiable. I'd never been there before. Smaller than I thought, but it has a nice pitch to it.

The upper part of pats does have nice pitch but it really has a lot of run out.

Heh! Long gone are my aspirations for turns. Mowed the lawn for the first time this year...ready to plant flowers (as soon as the temps warm *sheesh*)...and all the gear is stowed (temporarily, until I can load them up with summer wax on a nice warm day).

I'm looking forward to getting the kayak out....and the bike. As soon as I get a free non-mother's day, non-weekend, non-graduation, non-birthday weekend. *SHEESH!*
