Here (Berkshire east) for the week with the family. Dodged some rain Sunday and today was beautiful spring skiing, mid 40s and sunny. Starting to get a little thin in places, but still skiing well overall.

I don’t know how these mountains do it, it must be impossible to plan on having full staff for a busy holiday week and then you get get this weather…. The mountain has been EMPTY past two days. Are MA schools off this week? NY is.

In other news, the new quad has not been running past two days. Not sure what the issue is, but only asked staff inside. They say it was running up until the weekend. Ill ask one of the wrenches if it’s still down tomorrow.

And the old triple (cable and chairs) are gone and in one of the lots. Towers still standing.

Anyway, having a great time, merry Christmas and happy new years to all y’all, think snow!

Oh and no s’mores with LLBean this year? Bummer, kids loved it.

And which one of you had “NELSAP” personalized plates? Seen at Bousquet on Saturday

New quad was running this afternoon. Place was empty. Snowmaking trails (that they have gotten to so far) were in decent shape but bare earth everywhere else. It appears the LL Bean s’mores shack is no longer happening at any mountain … https://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/513045?page=winter-in-new-england

due to the incoming rain in the forecast on Tuesday night, we will be CLOSED on New Year's Day. This will allow for the water to drain off the hill before temperatures drop back below freezing and our grooming team can resurface the trails before reopening on Thursday.

Anyone else make the mistake of skiing Roy’s Way today ? Scratched up my skis (and knee) pretty good.
