Spring has arrived in a hurry. The temp was 45 overnight and is now 60 (yes 60!) with a warm breeze as the rain dried up before reaching us this am. Rain would have been good as it would have washed the glue out of the recent new snow. The forecasters got it wrong as there is an inversion with much warmer temps on the mtn than down in the valley towns. The sun is out and the snow is melting fast. Skiing was very slow and the snow was sticky like glue so not enjoyable for me today. Many of you have been asking about the closing date and the answer is.......none set yet, as mgmt explained to me, it depends on "economics". They will not run at a loss for even a day. You can bet it will be sometime between April 5 & 12. Remember last year....they unexpectedly closed April 6 without notice / warning until Mon April 7th. Pond skimming most likely the 4th or 5th of April. Milan's Perfect Lift Restaurant will host its annual pig roast / old skis bond fire April11.
Ski on.......
