I won't be skiing this weekend. I'll be starting up my season next weekend with a powder day ( :wink: ) at Wachusett.

Friday - Saturday - Sunday I should be at Sunday River.

-If anyone else is there, look for the 6'2"ish 240ish longhair w/the yellow Volkl/Technica Obermeyer jacket.

- If that isn't descriptive enough "Think Wookie"

Are you guys serious about skiing this weekend at Mt. Snow or Killington? I can see SR or Loaf, but isn't it supposed to be 60 degrees w/thunderstorms in VT tomorrow? I heard over an inch of rain! Are you counting on all day snowmaking blitzes Thursday-Friday?

If Killington decides to go all out with snowmaking, you'd be suprised what they can do in just one night.

umm, places in vermont actually have a better change of opening. Even though it is warm in vermont now that warmth will be in maine and new hampshire soon, and it will stay there longer so vermont will actually be able start making snow earlier

Oh. So it's a "if...then..." kind of thing. I thought you guys knew something I didn't. My bad.

Right now if you check out the websites:
"Killington re-opens for the 2005-06 ski and snowboard season Saturday"

SR states "If everything goes as planned, we'll open Barker on Friday and hopefully tack on some South Ridge action for Saturday"
