You guys are killing it! Like the music (and the 180 in the bumps).

Have to admit I'm jealous. Went to Sunapee today and the bumps were craptastic. Nothing compares to the mighty Gunbarrel.

I just want a Sundown t-shirt!

A whopping $12.50 in the ski shop.

Nothing to worry about. The eye is naturally drawn to the blinding orange gloves.

:lol: Now I know why I like hanging out with Pat. Finally, somebody with birdier appendages than me! :lol:

Same boat. After Sunday, Sundown is going Friday-Sunday for the following two weekends. After that Snow, Okemo, Killington and Sugarbush are all in play.

just read this on kzone....

"Heard an ambassador on the k1 yesterday say to some other folks in the cabin that they're definitely done blowin snow for the year, they're done.
Also said they're probably lookin at closing April 19th."

havent heard anything new myself. time will tell, its mid-march. think its really gonna come down to whether theres snow or not. of course that didn matter last year so who knows. on another note, i just ordered a new pack. looking forward to gettin up to the bowl this year. gonna get some may turns no matter what.

Always a sad time of year for me when that happens...

Agreed. And it should be noted that the mighty Sundown is the only ski area in CT still open midweek. The base is holding up pretty well despite the warmth this month. If we had any more significant rain, they would be pretty hurtin'. We've been lucky in that regard.
