If I have my facts correct, you have Friday-Sunday, this weekend at sugarbush and also next weekend. Plus KIllington well into May. You can do it.

if you do it once, you will never have to do it again as you will have earned your bragging rights. Plus, it will be nagging at you all summer if you miss by only a day or two!
You speak the truth - ended last year at 99. Currently at 89 and not taking any chances.

Go for it kingslug, definitely an accomplishment.

Hey Slug:
I need 6 more for 130, If you need to borrow some I‘m more than willing to share. No K for me so I need the next two weekends plus Tahoe in June.

My feet would fall off at 130...
But I suppose if I lived out west that would be a normal season..
It snowed again at Snowbird....

Seems like a dumb place to be considering the avi danger this season out there... glad they were ok, but seems like an unnecessary risk.

This weather sux..grey..fog...rain soon...
I'm out...

Partly sunny at Sugarbush right now. Also just looked at the K webcams and same thing there... K forecast from NWS doesn't look too bad - "A slight chance of showers between 11am and noon, then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after noon. Partly sunny, with a high near 46."

There's a layer of fog/clouds below my condo though down in the valley...but up on the mountain it is a different story.

Small thing I noticed on the Current conditions report. It says "We are closed Monday-Thursday, opening for the final two weekends of April 29-30 and May 6-7". I assume they are open Fridays but that is April 28 and May 5th. It's not clear but I will plan for the Fridays.

They fixed it now.
