SNOW WILL OVERSPREAD THE SOUTHERN BERKSHIRES...LITCHFIELD
COUNTY AND DUTCHESS COUNTY LATE THIS EVENING...AND BECOME HEAVY
TOWARD DAYBREAK MONDAY. WINDS WILL INCREASE TO 15 TO 25 MPH WITH
HIGHER GUSTS OVERNIGHT AND CONTINUE MONDAY...CAUSING BLOWING AND
DRIFTING OF SNOW AND REDUCING VISIBILITY. SNOW WILL TAPER OFF TO SNOW
SHOWERS MONDAY NIGHT WITH ACCUMULATIONS OF 8 TO 16 INCHES
LIKELY...WITH LOCALLY UP TO 20 INCHES IN SOUTHERN LITCHFIELD
COUNTY.

Not exactly sure when I'll be there, but I'll be there at some point...

I will be there at some point. Probably an evening session. But maybe early if I can some work done today. Looks like I will be able to complete the evaluation of the Gotamas in the pow on Monday. :snow:

What skis to use, what skis to use...

Powder looks good for the Wateas, but with the tightness of those bumps I'm leaning towards the Twisters.

Guess we'll have to see tomorrow night.

Eight inches of fresh as of 6:30am...I'm a couple miles from the hill.

Looks like a first chair (or first 20!) day :grin:

As I understand it, Kurt is out there right now finishing up the bumps. Apparently, he's almost to the bottom, near the racing finish which is essentially the last stretch! AWESOME! Hopefully a few more inches this afternoon to top coat them! They will start going wider on Tuesday night. This next month is going to be SICK!!!

It's killing me that I'm sitting here at work, instead of on the chair lift right now! :(

I am still pretty sure I will make it up this afternoon/early evening. Hopefully I can get on the road by 2 at the latest.

What time are the rest of you shooting for? It will certainly impact what time I shoot for.
