Ward Hill should not be an option unless you have never been on skis or a board before. Nashoba is pretty far from Worcester and has limited trails. WA WA is definitely your best bet. Saturdays are crowded but the singles line should help.

Did you see this? Can save some money if you know a racer or it might add to the crowds

i don't want to jeopardize my status as a professional by participating in an amateur's race.

Smith Walton was getting all the snowmaking love last night. Looked deep from the chair, so all three options from the summit should be good to go. 10th was wicked icy last night, but since it's supposed to be like 50 on Saturday I don't think that will be an issue.

That figures. I've been looking forward to hitting Smith, but I pulled a calf muscle last time out and now I'm sidelined for a while.

Hope it wasn't too serious...had a calf pull that had me out for a few weeks. Biggest challenge was preventing re-injury.

Yeah, with middle age I find it's a lot easier to pull muscles and they take longer to heal. It's been five days and it's still sore, so I'm hoping in another week it will be better. It's hard not to rush back out there, but I'm sure I'd reinjure it if I did.
