I watched Wachusett open November 8th, 2002.

.

I was there for that... they opened one trail (conifer) top to bottom. It was not full width but it was def. enough to ski on. I liked it, it was like spring skiing but with foliage to look at.


It was a very strange feeling riding up the lift over Tenth with most of the leaves still on the trees and the long grass still relatively green in ski gear with the planks on.

Strange.... but cool.

I'm sure they stay open as long as mother nature will allow. It's just that the snow keeps melting. It's enough to make you want to cry.

hah, they used to make way more snow on superstar "glacier" and this year they probably had atleast another week worth of top to bottom skiing on superstar. And before when they used to stay open I think there was a lot of hiking involved
