Billski, what say you about the weather this weekend? Forecast is looking quite nice, but it could definitely use some snow. Do you know anything Weather.com isn't telling us?

I'll probably get up there around apre time on the Saturday, so I will see if I can find you and introduce myself at some point over the weekend. Cheers...

I am tracking it closely using my personal snow-chaser dashboard ski.iabsi.com and snowforecast.com (our esteemed WinnChill's contributions)
My gut tells me that there are going to be a couple of 4" ers and whatever magic Ullr will also gift us with. I'm trying to resist being greedy/spoiled as was the case last year. There will definitely be some rain on Wednesday. The temps look to stay in the high 20's. With those kind of conditions, I find the natural trails ski best and are not icy. The groomers can potentially be icy in the morning, just wait for the sun to get a little higher and you'll be ok on the groomers too. I'm not ready to go into the woods, it needs another 6" based on my visit 2 weeks ago, plus my own preferences.

Net-net, for this winter, conditions should be great.

Apres ski will be at the Wunderbar from 4 to six. Let's just say "hi". There should be a lively group of folks there. Plus Ride Ski New England is doing an event plus raffles.

PM me if you don't have my cell number.

Aww.. I'm jealous. Wish I were leaving tomorrow. This week cannot go fast enough.

We will definitely try to hit Wunderbar. We'll be a party of 3 Saturday night, and 4-5 Sunday.
