I just found out that Blue mountain is no longer opening at 7:30AM on weekends..F#cking b8llshit..now they are opening at 8AM which means it will be crowded right from the start..and I'll be losing out on 15 hours of uncrowded skiing this season..boo to Blue..
Well that really sucks. I wonder how much that saves them in operational costs.

Onthesnow.com and Snocountry.com are both reporting a projected opening date of 12/5 for Blue. Seems suspect to me.

Why does that seem suspect? Blue always trys to open the first weekend in December..it all depends on how cold it is..in 2001..they didn't open until after Christmas and they opened December 2nd in 2005

It seems to soon to make that kind of prediction. I applaud their optimism however. Sooner the better if you ask me.

The Pokes have had so many miserable Nov/Dec starts rainwise the past few years I gave up holding my breath. I just felt like it's been so long that we had a stellar early season that maybe this year probabilities would be in our favor for early cold and some natural. Looking out my window right now and I ain't feelin it, lol, but it's still "early".

In the office, trying to wake up.

Got home a little after 1 from the Pats game last night (great game, disappointing end for us pats fans), girlfriend was being a blanket hog, so I was cold all night and didn't sleep well...
