    Messenger shuffle is a move to the south in the last 24hrs according to Scott (Messenger) RIP, His best phrase was he would like to bang the Ruc model as that was his model choice.

    Everyone gave him such a hard time about the ruc. It really looked like someone drew it with a crayon.  People gave him a hard time for his coast guard model "because the boy scout model wasn't high def enough"   haha.

    lol that’s not how I remember Messenger shuffles up here.  They go ESE each run to go time, a tiny bit at a time.  Like a torture you can’t avoid :lol:.

    When Messenger was posting bouy observations and every RAP run each hour sliding away in the last 6 hours before an event.

    I'll never forget the drives up route 3 looking for the r/s line.

    This may be the worst weather you could ask for. We just came back from dinner on 53 in Norwell and it was 90% rain / 10% flakes. Kids asking me if we can sled in the morning emoji1787.png

    Would rather a warm rainer like we woke up to yesterday.


    .the fours?

    I am just posting this here because I trust (many) people's thoughts and opinions on different stuff besides weather.   

     

    Are they in town with you?

    Go to town/city elder services.  Those people are on point and a wealth of knowledge.  It's all they do.  

    It's not an easy time in life.  I hope you can find help.

    No I never said we were getting it on Christmas Eve. I'm talking about the storm for Thursday and Friday. There is a possibility on the back end of the storm for Friday night that we could see a little snow.

    What I meant was wouldn't it be nice to have it on the ground for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

    When Ginx, coastal and DIT start going at it just keep your head down.  A 3"  event cures all in here. (That's 8" if you are measuring on a hill in Tolland)

  6. Wildcat today.  One of the best new england days I can remember.  36-38 at the base.  Surface softened up to powder but never went mashed potatoes.  Most of the middle mountain was left untamed and a wrong turn brought us (my wife is still pissed) into some big soft moguls.   Just great conditions with everyone on the mountain in a good mood and loving it.

    Maybe, but I will say this... The roads have turned awful over the past few weeks. So many fissures and potholes. The worst I've seen in a while.

    Hit a pothole while travelling 75 mph on my way to work yesterday and it actually hurt my back.  No idea how I didnt have 4 flat tires.

    Looking like this incoming event is just what the doctor ordered for MRG. Their most recent snow reports have been sounding increasingly concerned, but beginning the event with a nice layer of paste to buff out the base should work wonders. Top that off with fluff as the storm departs on Friday and most of NNE should see great turning conditions!

    Are they all staying snow or are the Pat's peak, ragged , sunapee crowd starting as rain?   They were all doing pretty well coming into february.

    The setup there with the horse race gates scanning passes is just infuriating to me. It's always such a jumble. I'm sure they spent millions on it. It just doesn't work for anyone under 5 feet. They need to take the pass out of their jacket and hold it up to the machine, which is a hassle and increases chances it gets dropped by the kids.

    Cool mountain if you know where you are going and can blast around. With a family, it gets hard because of all of the flat crossover trails to get between the various areas. A lot of hoofing it.

    We are trying to learn to love Wildcat so we can add that to the rotation more regularly. SR just hasn't stuck for us and to get there we drive double the distance from Wildcat.

    The arm band pass holders work pretty well for kids. I've even seen pass holder on the goggle straps of some of the little ski schoolers. 

    I purposely got a jacket with a pass pocket on the arn so I dont have to mess with it at all.    

    Wildcat is a tough place to love.  It's like an ex.  When it's good it's great but most of the time its an ice cold b!tch.  

    If I didn't have an epic pass I would choose bretton woods over attitash or wildcat 100% of the time.
