Blowing Out the Mice?

[Greg]

Think anyone will do it this year? It used to be a common practice that was used as a photo opp, most notably by Killington. Not that it really means anything, but it still stoked the jones.

Sunday River - 10/7/2006:

Hopefully soon...great for the stoke factor. Bad for the jones factor.

I love when this starts to be a topic of conversation around here.

I love when this starts to be a topic of conversation around here.

As well as the first frost.

Just to add to the Jonesing factor... The weather in Waterville Valley is forecasted to drop down to the 30s by the end of the week. Inching closer and closer!

We started last week blowing out the lines in certain areas, especially those that saw upgrades. Hopefully in about five weeks, we'll be blowing some snow.

BTW ... snow is already falling ... in Colorado!

Here's hoping the snow making at Magic works this year.

Here's hoping the snow making at Magic works this year.

Here's hoping SoVT sees a massive blizzard around 12/23 so Magic has a strong Christmas week.

 

[SpinmasterK]

And here's to hoping that it dumps here as well!

It snowed on top of Mt Washington Friday, so New England beat Colorado!

I would suspect the River will do it around the Columbus day weekend.

I'd like to see some snow.

I didn't blow out any mice but I did find a dead chipmunk full of maggots in my skihouse at Cannon this weekend.Frost on the car Sunday morning also.

That would be a great Christmas Present. (are you listening mother nature?) Can't forget the nice storm we had on Christmas 4 or 5 years ago.

How about all of Southern New England!

This colloquialism has always reminded me of an activity Richard Gere, and ctenidae, would probably enjoy immensely.

Tom (spinmasterK)... you know you want to blow a patch for folks to enjoy on columbus day weekend... weather permitting...

what could possibly be better than peak foliage, a brewfest, a massive ski swap, cool crisp weather and a patch of white for the crazies to have a blast on?!?!

i will get pictures of people enjoying that patch at Killington ALL OVER the internet and get people stoked for skiing... dude... you HAVE to do it you HAVE THE POWER
