Where Should Trailboss Ski?

Bob R · Mar 30, 2005, 4:56 PM

I won't be there Sat partially for that reason also. The vert Challenge only takes place on the West side on Coolidge street. But the lines to park will start at 7.30 and you will park in the South mountain lots by 9am...that would be my guess. Mid week should be fine.

(Sigh....) Just checked the weather and snow reports....NO skiing at Pat's and 2-3 MORE inches of fr&*()% r%^$!!!! Complete washout this weekend...

...breathe, breathe Trailboss. So it looks like I'm going to call in sick next week and take a day to go somewhere...hoping Cannon has snow 'cause I'd like to get back up there after a 6-year hiatus.

I think that I will also be waiting until next weekend to go skiing again with all the rain forecast for this weekend. I could see Cannon from our hotel over this past weekend, and it did look well snow covered. There was still alot of snow in most spots in the Mount Washington Valley. There is also a chance that snow could fall up there on the backside of the storm.

Oh, but you gave up your freedom of choice when you posted the poll. You must ski the area decided by the poll or "No more skiing for you!" :P

At the time of this post it looks like you'll be skiing Mt. Snow. Have fun!

Neet idea though; to have us decide where you ski. Next season an adventurous person could succumb themselves to a poll for each outing. We pick the place, they go there.

Yeah, something to think of for next season...you chose, we review for you

My idea was to get input more or less as opposed to having you live vicariously through me

OK, It's come down to Cannon, WV, and Loon. Cannon is reporting 25 trails today and Loon has 41. WV is reporting 40. I've also got to dig up my card....

I hate to tell you, but the 2nd has come and gone...

When are you planning on being at Cannon or Loon? I'll be up there this coming weekend...

I know, hence the wink

I just found it funny that the title of the post is asking where to ski on the 2nd...
