Anyone interested? The road is open to 4.5 miles already, and will open to the summit on May 8th. They are expecting 2-4 inches of snow today and cooler temps through the week, with the observatory calling fo 50s during the weekend. I'm planning on skiing friday and saturday.
Dooooo It
Take Pictures
how are the general hiking conditions up there, still muddy/snowy? I'm planning on hiking it (no skiing, just hiking) in about 2 or 3 weeks.
Dip, it was really dry on friday. Gatiers and boots and you'll be fine.
And I got Aspen Extreme a few weeks ago, thanks bro. Next time you're up let me buy you a beer.
It looked like there was a fresh (but thin) coating today. Ugghh, why do I always have to work weekends!
I will be there, not worky for me this weekend... Looking for a place to stay though ;).
Crashd, If the winky icon is a hint- yes I have a couch open.
Crash when are you heading up? I'm either leaving early friday or thursday evening.
Prolly Friday, not sure yet thoughQuote:

Train - Thanks for the offer, I'll keep you informed.
thats fine dip, thats what I meant by me buying you one. ;)
Let me know crash, if you need to you can crash in my room. I wont be there but my roomate will. NHtele is in Hawaii right now, not sure if he'll be back on friday, but if he is I'm sure he wouldnt mind having you crash.
Train, arent you right by tuckerman? Do you bartend?(I remember someone saying they bartend around there)
edit: oh yeah, I turn 21 on friday, so whoever comes up better plan on getting trashed really good.
CantDog - 21st birthday? Damn man, you didn't mention that. That makes my inability to skip work for turns on Friday even more disappointing. Damn consulting and its ridiculous demands on my time.
Giddyup, then... i'll see what i can do, i'm pretty open, but might have to be in boston on saturday...Quote:

Unlike some consultants, I only consult when I wanna:)

Trainvain, you can count on seeing me friday night.
And you can count on me buying ya a beer!
thats what im talkin bout!
I'll be up first weekend in June to see if there is any snow left ;)
FYI - stating the obvious but police up there are pricks to begin with(MASS plates don't help either)- and it is mud season and they are especially bored right now. Nothing helps pass their shift like a good DWI bust.. Consider yourself warned.;)Quote:

WORD! Was up there a couple weeks ago, and you could just feel them getting antsy. N.H. cops suck. Be carefull. Second warning.
yo maggots, i'm hiking up saturday. going up with some old college buddies and some new people on my old ski team, and my booze hound coach, heh. so i'll be hangin with them, but if you see me, by all means say hi.
also, i'll be up there way earlier than the rest of 'em on Friday night (they'll probly roll in around minight or so), so i might be down for some drinks. we usually stay at the joe dodge but word on the street is you now pay per person instead of per room, so we are staying in gorham (i think) in some motel.
Its even worse if you have virginia tags! And trust me, the last thing I want to do is lose my license.Quote:

Happy 21st, Cant! That's a great way to spend your birthday but I think you guys are nuts for hiking all the way up there when there's barely any snow left. Have a blast!
This is an understatement. They will actually drive through the parking lots of Delaney's, Up Country, etc. and keep tabs on how long certain cars have been parked there.Quote:

bizzzump, I'm heading out early tomorrow and I'll be pulling into the pinkham lot at 8
word, im headed to VT tonight and then NH tomorrow night. if i get there early enough i might pay trainvain a visit for a little gin & tonic action :D
Might as well. It's Cant's Bday and I'm buying the first round!
Train, just sent you a PM, stilll got a couch or floor space?
Anyone interested in Great Gulf Saturday?
Just shot one back atcha.
Happy Birthday, Can't! Have a good time. Remember, NH has that stupid ass open container law. Even if the driver is sober, if the passengers are drinking, it's a fine. Got off with a warning last year when I pulled over to let my buddy take a piss. Was stone cold sober, but when he saw my boys' open beers, he ran me through the whole gammut of road-side tests:mad:
i thought that was illegal everywhere ?
