I was hiking Mt. Tom on Sunday and it was flurrying. I got all excited just from that! Won't be long now!

Love those Magnums. Picking mine up from Summer storage this weekend.

They were a $175 Sierra Trading post 4th of July purchase this season. Have never been on them but at that price and the reviews they get I couldn't pass up for a true hardpack ski.

They are a great hard snow ski. Great grip, stable and quick. Just enough early rise to allow them to handle the crud well as the trails get chopped up. You got a great deal.

Everything posted in this thread were all false signs! Never ending fall!

I blame it on Killington. Winter starts when they say so - and the clearly screwed up this year. With great power comes great responsibility.

Duse, the ski season has started and should be still if wasn't for this weather. What rock have you been under?
Under the rock called work. scroll back in this thread and you'll see I pointed this out in the summer time :) Had a great view of the three open trails at Loveland last week.
Kmart, meh; Not so much. Regards, Duse

Snowblowers are for those who waste time blowing snow rather than skiing it! I just have someone plow my driveway! I have not seen him yet and from the sounds of it probably not until the new year.
