Everyone is in such a rush. Enjoy fall. Get things done so you don't have to when the snow falls. Life goes by quick enough as it is.

Agree. There will be a few less unfinished projects looming over me all winter because of this weather. I can deal with it for now.

A minute from the Alta exit off the I-15!
There is 2+ weekes till Thanksgiving. No one on this forum (not event the weather savvy people) know what Turkey Day will bring. Yes the trend is for it to be warmer... but one 3 day stretch of cold weather and snow could bring two feet.

"warmer than average" is BS when the average is below freezing at night. The average low at Killington is in the upper 20s at this time of year. 30 degrees and snow will still go down in the books as "above average". If January was "above average" no one would make a big deal of it because "above average" would mean single-digit lows and 20 degree highs... still "above average".

Thanksgiving week skiing only on the ridge with stairs and downloading is looking like a real possibility.
