Will you make opening day at your home mountain?

Seeing as I have 3 home mountains now, I'll try to answer this...

Sugarbush: Assuming they open the weekend before Thanksgiving per usual, I would be able to stop on my way out of VT because LSC is closed all week. If they open that week, no go. Earlier would also be fine.

Wachusett: Assuming Black Friday, should be a go unless I decide to head north. If it's not that weekend, I won't be able to ski there till late December.

Burke: Assuming first or second weekend of December, should be a go unless somewhere else looks better. Anything after Dec 17th and I'll be gone till January 18th.

So, if all 3 open on their historically normal days, then I can swing all 3 if I want.

If Mount Snow's opening day is a Saturday (as it has been the last couple of years), I'm there. If it's a Sunday, then I've got to see if the Patriots have a home game and who they're playing that day ;)

I'll make opening day at Hidden Valley if I'm off work. Last season I made opening and closing day at Mt. Peter, though it's not my home mountain. I believe I made opening day at HV last year but I'm not really sure.

I'm thinking that I may make my way up to Sunday River for opening day.
