The Pugs Vermont Invasion 4/3-10/17

[Lorenzzo]

If it's raining there and not in Boston there's an afternoon game at Fenway against the Pirates on Thursday.

Although Sale makes his first start for the Bro Sox today. There are few things I might miss a day of skiing for but that's one of them.

 

[Mike Thomas]

Hike it if you can?

Is it 2016 where you live???

Is it 2016 where you live???

Nope, Massachusetts turned the calendar like the rest of the country. Wasn't sure what was left at MRG after a week of rain and warmth.. Figured it could look something like the video snow report. Wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong.

Just sayin'. We've been having a good spring. Often the case here where the cold ocean warms up so slowly. The Loaf is looking good. And Saddleback is reportedly stuffed to the gills with snow, if you feel like hiking under the mothballed lifts. Got a car with a moose guard? After your Sunday commitments you could take a tour.

Flood watch dropped. Weekend forecast looking much better w/ even a couple of inches possible. Yeah!!!!!!!

We will be on the hill tomorrow skiing with legends/Hall of Famers like Susie Chaffee, @Bob Salerno and Dan Egan.

Weather.com is saying 6-11 inches of snow for Stowe tonight and tomorrow morning. Yesterday had the best corn skiing off the year IMO. If the storm produces Ill be there at 7:30 saturday because as soon as the sun hits the fresh wet snow, we will all be wishing it had nt snowed.

2 inches already....

with that said the skiing might be better tomorrow if doesnt snow.

 

[Philpug]

It was snowing pretty good on the top half of the mountain as we left at noon.

 

[Mike Thomas]

Did you skip skiing last Thursday?

Yesterday had the best corn skiing off the year IMO.

Because zero visibility until the rain really got going is NOT as fun as perfect blue skies and perfect corn... well, that is just my opinion, but I'll bet others would agree. Last Thursday was why people LOVE spring skiing, yesterday was as bad as vivibility can possibly get, skiing in fog combined with rain. Maybe you had better drugs?

 

[Josh Matta]

no its cleared up by noon, and the snow never got sticky because of the rain. When its sunny its get gloppy and sticky unless its just the right temp on the right exposure.

 

[Philpug]

We will be out tomorrow. In the AM we will be video taping Suzie Chaffee doing Ballet about 10-10:30 on Spruce.

 

[Philpug]

We are planning to be at MRG on Sunday and Okemo Monday morning

We are planning to be at MRG on Sunday and Okemo Monday morning

"We will open for one last day this Sunday, April 9th with skiing off the Single Chair from 9am to 4pm under hopefully sunny skies and warm temps. We will not open on Saturday to allow the mountain to drain and hopefully set us up for a fantastic day of corn skiing on Sunday. All passes will be valid and tickets will be at mid week rates. Services will be limited with breakfast in the Basebox followed by a grill on the deck for lunch and drinks served out of General Stark's Pub. The Mad River General Store will be open from 10am to 4:30pm to stock up on Mad River gear for the summer. We hope to see everyone on Sunday to close out another great season of skiing at Mad River Glen."

Oh. Okay then. I'll be at Stowe. Oh well. Enjoy!

 

[James]

They opened Mad River Glen just so Phil and Trish could ski it? And kept it closed on Sat because they can't be there. That's pull. What's the catch, Phil grows a beard?

 

[Yo Momma]

Phil grows a beard?

Next thing ya know he'll be on Tele gear!!!

 

[Uncle-A]

Phil grows a beard?

Is that some GRAY mixed in that beard? That alone is a good reason to shave.

and I just wanted to point out that I was weather.com was right with 7-10 inches of snow over night falling at Stowe. Mad River is going to be awful tomorrow unless that get skied in.
