      confirmed. A hike in the rain to get to snowline made it all the sweeter when I got up there…was still snowing a bit this afternoon up high at WF

      Need beta for WF for possible trip on Monday. I’m gathering info now after a hell of a overnight party for my daughter. Worried when they get older. Yikes!!!

      we had to stop at 3900′ because it was just too deep and we were booting up with skinny rock skis.. can’t believe I left the guns in the car

      heavy and wet, only marginally better up high

    Greg- I’ve got pics from Mt. Snow. Let me know if you guys are interested and I’d gladly send em’ over. Was en route to Killington but we got a late start leaving from our place in East Dover and saw decent accumulation up high. We had plans to head to Pumpkin Fest in Keen, NH and so decided to stay local. Skiing was pretty darn good for October 16. Let’s hope we get a few more of these storms.
