I got really spoiled wearing shorts to work all last week.
Managed to boat, bike and ski pretty much equal amounts this season.
Lemonade at its best. |

this skied worse than it looks.  (the free side of Stowe today) |
Carbo's making it look worse than it is; there was actually decent cover under the gondola yesterday.
There weren't a lot of people out, no doubt due to the rain in the valley, but on the mountain it was just fog. I thought yesterday was my last day, but if it stays cold all week, who knows? |

From the MWAC:
If you were hoping to find warm sunny skies on Mt. Washington today, you’re going to be sorely disappointed. It’s a very wintery day up here, much more reminiscent of December than of the warmth that happened just last week. In fact, a small amount of new snow has even fallen (~1cm), with light flurries in the air as I type. Temperatures will fall through the day to around 0°F (-19°C) and winds will be quite strong, blowing from the NW at 70-90mph (113-145kph). You don’t need to be a math major to know that adds up to tough, unforgiving conditions above treeline. If you’re coming up today, leave the blue jeans and trail sneakers behind and pack your best winter gear instead. My personal recommendation would be to leave the skis behind. It’ll be poor skiing conditions with some high consequences if you have a mishap. |

My official Grill Top Snow Measurement Device was completely covered with the exact amount of snow required to completely cover it.

At least another 10 pages of the thread that has persisted all season despite the lack of snow and skiing. |

Going to Chamo didn't help us here...going West will?
Have a great trip and watch your topknot!
