May be there on Tuesday, depending on this whole work thing. It seems to get in the way every once in a while. I'll probably red eye it with a few k board folks.
BTW make sure you wear the stiff Wrangler dark blue jeans, they're the best for snow conditions. Top it off with the infamous Starter Jacket.

I will probably sit out until I hear a bit more about it, but Wednesday or Thursday are strong possibilities.
I will be there on Sat. In the afternoon. how much are tickets this year? Did the price go up? I didn't see that they had half day passes on the web site :-/ balls!
Yup they went up.....Lift tickets are 115 bucks now
wow that's a steel. Any one know where I can sell some sperm in VT?
Jstead, I think these guys might be interested.

The word I heard was that Kmart was going to start blowing until Monday/Tuesday. This is what I was told when I called up friday afternoon. Are they blowing right now? Dont temps have to stay low for 4 days before they even start?
The next few days look to be in the low 30's in Upstate NY, should be colder in VT
Whoever told you that, was not in the know. Snowmaking started on the upper mtn around 630am on Friday. They're blowing the upper and lower today. Here's the report from the Basin Ski shop and a pic taken this morning:Quote:

"Nov 8th 27 degrees and sunny- The snow guns are running from the peak down to the gondola. Opening day is scheduled for Tuesday morning. The long term forecast looks good for extended snow making. We will have top to bottom skiing this year, no truck rides."

How many trails they plan on having open Tuesday??
so then you'd say they insulate well and don't get wet? I don't have a starter jacket...or any jackets that say anything. Guess I'll have to go to Bob's Store for all my Startaah needs. Any ideas on what team I should represent?Quote:

Well if you are in the Lebanon NH area there is a killer blue fartbag for sale at the Listening Center. 20 bucks. If I didnt just buy 3 pairs of skis there this morning, I would have bought the suit too. Fit me perfectly, im 6'3
I think it's around 8 but we all know that means around 2-3 runs.Quote:
