I'm surprised nobody's made the thread yet with it being middle October already, the stoke was too high and I had to make the sundown thread for like my millionth time


Only jam I know of:

Simsbury Celebrates - November 29th - Simsbury, CT


Who'll I be seeing erry day there this winter? Any new faces?

At least until April 4th since we have an event that day (of course weather could change this)

There are many factors at play, the biggest being people coming. If no one is coming to the mountain, it'll probably close because what's the point.

It didn't get decided until 12:30 yesterday, so you pretty much found out instantly.

As always, it has nothing to do with how much snow there...no one is coming, after school sports have started, people are over winter/snow, it's just that time of year. Believe me, it sucks. Would have loved to be open this weekend, but with rain Friday and Saturday (meaning we'd be closed for weather) and Easter Sunday (meaning no one is coming), it's just not worth it.

I agree, the vibe was amazing last night. Thank you all for coming out and making it epic!

Bittersweetly, I went up to Sundown earlier today. The mountain was completely empty, literally no one around. I sat down and made my final official Ski Sundown video. It's been an awesome 5 years. Thanks for putting up with me, haha. I'll try and make it back to ski every now and then.
