Not gloating B --Just extremely happy to get some fresh --


We're Now thinking seriously about canceling the trip after checking weather forcast for that area for next week and WAWA is CLOSED today

The report looks like FREEZING rain there on and off till next wednesday -- that simply ROTS . It be a horrible drive and crappy skiing

The skiing won't be crappy... they do a great job at turning freezing rain into nice LSGR. Plus it's supposed to be in the 40s the next few days so it won't be a flash freeze. They're just closed today because who the hell wants to ski in this weather?

Still... obviously a lot better where you are.

Nah, some showers on Friday and Monday. Tomorrow and the weekend look good. Like Zand said they recover quickly (groom everything twice a day) and have a good base, so If you don't mind groomers everything will be fine. I'll be up tomorrow night and can report how things held up.

Thanks , i would be really Interested to hear what you find tomorrow .WE both like WA and know they groom twice a day and blow MM pretty well too but was concerned that after all this weather mess it would be Frankensnow over crust at best

We stillt may head there later in the week if weather /conditions improve.

But it looks like at least for the short run i'm staying here in the Dacks. We are lucky to have some our best conditions in years
