Okemo started up the guns this morning at 4 a.m.!

When I walked out of the house this morning and heard that familiar roar coming from up the road, I knew it was going to be a good day!

Awesome! Thanks for the heads up. It's nice when the actual mountain takes the time to post updates. :D

I wish we could have taken more pictures, but between limited access and the early morning sun positioning itself directly inline with the snowguns, it was pretty tough.

This is the best I can do right now as far as a "bigger picture" type of shot:

P.S. Please don't make fun of the graphic design - I've yet to load Photoshop onto my computer, so I had to go with the tried and true MS Paint instead! :dunce:

LOL! Never a problem when it makes us feel special to have a 'custom made' graphic just for us. :-D I was pondering adding another little white square on the left hand side pointing down with text such as 'Man you cannot see taking leak behind tree'.

:snow:

I spent a couple days at Okemo last spring. I really enjoyed my time with the SkiDivas, and Max Capacity.
Good to see white covering the green!
