I figure I could take the 5th and 6th off work if others are up for it. Let me know so that I can plan ahead.

andyzee, weekends work best for me, except the weekend of the 6th to 8th of April.
dmc, thanks for the tips. Hope to meet you there.
Surfed around also on the Time for Tuckermans site for info on the place. Looking forward to this.

Tucks will not be skiable when Jim is going to be in the MWV, the avi danger will be too high because of all the new snow.
This could be the case...but that's the week my kids are off of school, so it's written in stone for me. If there's that much snow, Wildcat and others will provide alot of great spring skiing at the worst.
And it will be primo time for a skin or two up Sherby or Gulf of Slides.

It was a joke. Have you seen JimG track record for trips lately? Look what happened when he went to the MRV.
Other another topic: First week of April trips to the MWV are the best. If it is warm and sunny you have Tucks, and if Tucks isn't good because of snow you have Wildcat. It is a win/win situation.
Cool. I might actually be camping up at the shelters at that time.
And finally. Anyone up for Tucks or the GoS this sunday? The weather looks almost perfect.

Depends on when you go. I'm scheduled for shoulder surgery in May.
Edit: LOL! I just got your joke.

Not this weekend, not for me anyway. I'm up in VT Friday, Saturday and maybe Sunday. If interested and if any good conditions remain, I would always consider a future date.

Ha, I am supposed to get that done too. I am holding off though.....another stupid move by this guy. There is just no good time to be out of commision for 6 months!
Turns out it was no joke...never made it to the ravine due to alot of red "considerable" and "high" avalanche danger warnings the whole trip, but Wildcat was totally going off.
I skied everything at Wildcat...EVERYTHING. Woods shots too. Didn't come close to hitting anything until midway through Saturday when all the ropes finally dropped (not that they ever stopped me to begin with).

I'm game for an early May trip if the rest of April cooperates.

I thought your season ended on Saturday
Hey, you guys go up and I may be able to convince V
Just can't do the first weekend in May, anything after that should be OK.
