Thinking of heading to Kmart for the weekend to put my season to bed. Anyone else plan on being there? I see the weather forecast has changed to cloudy for Sunday, oh well. PM me with your number if you'd like to hook up to share some turns. Can't believe there's still lift serviced skiing available, Superstar is looking a little thin near the base, kudos to big K. Anyone know of any campgrounds that might be open in the area? I know Memorial Day Weekend is the unofficial start of the Summer season, but I wouldn't mind saving a few bucks camping if possible.

You are the man, CH. Way to extend the season...love your enthusiasm. Be sure to take and post some pics for those of us living vicariously through you.

+1000. Corn head is really passionate driving all that way for 1 trail. Glad we got to share some turns in march!

I'd say Cornhead is more of a Hardcore skier than just a mere diehard. Oh well, have a great time Mr. Corn.
These 2 pics are from the last day at Elk Mountain, last year.

I plan on being there for a few hours at least tomorow! I am scouting it for my wife who is on Florida this weekend. She would likke to go next weekend if they are still going for it! We were skiing Stien's Run a couple weekends ago at Sugarbush! Need to keep it going if the lifts are spinning!

After thinking they would not make it to Memorial Day, I admit they have a shot at it.

I may not be done for the lift served season yet.

180 and 2knees, appreciate the invites but I can't make it Sunday...it's my wife's birthday. In fact, this Friday might be the only day this week I can go, and that's only if I can bag out on my weekly sales meeting that day. Had to bag out on my plan to go to Mt. Washington this coming weekend too.

I was hoping they make it to Memorial Day so I can go in June...I figure if they open Memorial Day then the week after is a given.
