I'll be there whenever opening day is, unless both SR and K open on Veteran's day. Then I'll be heading to SR as my family has a place up there and I can ski multiple days. I figure K open earlier that week. Of course all of this is weather dependent. After 10/24th (I need warm waether for a job I'm running), bring on the cold.

There is also some people still up in the air like myself. So this list could get larger
I'm bringing my buddy up as well. He's going to be my "saftey" friend if BobR decides to get too frisky with me.
He's the one that really got me into skiing ... he's also my future bro in law!

BeanoNYC sounds like you will be safe know.
Since the kids are off on Veteran's day, I'm thinking of making this a family trip. Come up Thursday night, ski 3 days and leave Sunday.
This weather has me concerned about the projected date. we seem to be a few weeks late. What do you guys think?

All it takes is a weather patern change. We will be fine. Jim G I'm thinking about bringing my son along for the weekend also.

3 days is all it probably would take to get open. We will get some cold weather.

given how early kmart used to open *cough* *cough* november 11th is very late by their own previous standards. we all know why they took that route, but suffice to say it is plenty late enough to get some cold weather to blow snow. i mean, cripes, the last two years it has been cold enough that week for a small ski area in CT to beat kmart two years in a row. :lol:

I too am foolishly optimistic.
I will do a cold weather dance on top of my office desk if it comes to that. I don't think anyone in my office would think it out of the ordinary for me anyway... :dunce:

I hate this comparison. K opening with a top to bottom run is not at all the same this as a coupla hundred foot patch...riverc0il said:

So, Steve, when Woodbury opens before Kmart again this year are you gonna head down here to ski opening day with us CT folks?

no, you are right... and i completely agree... in the sense of the comparison that you just made.Greg said:
however, the sense of the comparison i was trying to make is if woodbury can do what they do and pull a day in front of kmart, given the differences in temp and elevation, it just shows how much kmart could open sooner if they really wanted to and that the likely hood that they will have made enough snow by their scheduled opening day is very viable. the difference in ski experiences is undeniable and i often disregard woodbury when the list comes out of who is opening first. but the fact that they can do what they do says a lot regarding whether any one "could" open sooner if they really wanted to.

i've made my thoughts on woodbury known before. it's a joke, all PR and hardly worth it unless you are in town. but the fact that kmart can get upstaged by a joke... that's the point i was trying to make.bvibert said:So, Steve, when Woodbury opens before Kmart again this year are you gonna head down here to ski opening day with us CT folks?
