I hear killy is opening this weekend.

The local hill (Jiminy Peak) is planning for this weekend as well.

Weather is iffy at best, and shitty hot at worst. Cross your fingers and do the snow dance.

The best we can hope for by this weekend at the bush is rimrun, and if we're lucky, Elbow. with the summit lift open, and the GMX quad downloading

^ Yeah, even if the bush opens its going to suck. A million people on one trail with only a few inches of cover with only one lift. Fuck this 60 degree bullshit.

hopefully things change and okemo can blow snow all night tonight and all day/night tomorrow for top to bottom. Maybe the temps will drop and this rain will turn to snow. Wishful thinking

I agree, im still goin though. But who knows, the weather can be unpredictable tho, maybe it'll get colder faster then they expect. On the other hand though it could stay warm as shit too long and they wouldnt open at all
