Big Burke announcement

[from_the_NEK]

Nice shameless plug. I bought a pair of your framed prints from Fine Art America a couple of week's ago for the wife's b'day. HUGE (did I say HUGE) success. thanks (btw- they are easy to work with and did a good job both with the printing and fulfilling the order)

Awesome! I'm always curious as to who buys my work. I'm glad you (and your wife) liked them.

Did you get a special AZ discount ?

Seriously, I can create a discount code to get AZ'rs a few $ off if you plan on ordering something. :-D

So........is it going to open soon or not?

I'm not sure anyone really knows at this point. It is week to week.

Reservations have been pushed back another week. But that's become a weekly occurrence.

That's not that bad of an idea. Lure a couple Qtourist in with super cheap rates and use it as an opportunity to Qtrain your Qstaff.

I would definitely recommend visiting Burke when conditions are good (not now). It is a super fun mountain with a great vibe and not crowded. They did a great job getting coverage for last weekend but definitely suffered a blow with the rain. Folks were having fun on Monday, the groomers were great and as others have said we are enjoying what we've got. BUT I would not recommend a day trip from Boston Friday if you have other options and are still having fun at your home mountain. I just drove by Cannon yesterday and it looked good, was thinking of going there myself tomorrow. The positive would be that because Burke is not crowded there is still good snow at the end of the day, especially if you are comfortable skiing the edges.

Thanks Viv, based on folks comments I am going to hit Cannon tomorrow. I think I would like Burke, what you describe is why I make Pico my home mountain. I will make the extra drive some other time when I can better experience Burke.

Staying in Lyndon and coming from Ragged. Anywhere in that area.

Schillings in Littleton, NH is great. We ate there just last night.

The Kingdom Tap Room in St. Johnsbury has a great selection of beer, but we have found the food to be hit or miss.

We ended up at the Foggy Goggle. They only had a small table in the bar left. It was a nice place. Menu was an interesting assortment. The waitress hyped up my dish a bit too much, but I left happy.
