I think I would probably sign for that

Foliage in Agawam also on fire https://www.wwlp.com/news/local-news/hampden-county/watch-live-fire-near-landfill-off-route-5-in-west-springfield/

Another pretty sweet Niehues sketch released today

On really cold days when they normally tell you to go inside every few runs to avoid frostbite... will the mountain just close? I mean some hardcore types will gut it out, but I don't envy the customer service folks telling parents no refunds and the kids can freeze or go home.

This would be a really great time for 2010/2011 to walk through that door. O how we pray

Ski monster?

I heard they'll let you in but then key your car

Seems KMart will require reservations to park

Based on this page I think so. https://www.healthvermont.gov/response/coronavirus-covid-19/traveling-vermont However... "Quarantining Before Coming IS an Option If you plan to travel to Vermont in a personal vehicle (including a rental vehicle or private plane), you may complete either a 14-day quarantine or a 7-day quarantine followed by a negative PCR test in your home state and enter Vermont without further quarantine restrictions. Continue to quarantine until you travel to Vermont"

Speaking of VT, looks like most of us massholes are banned again. Hampshire county has very few cases except those at UMass, which was enough to put us in the red by their standards. Berkshire and Franklin county peeps can still go freely, for now... I had a season pass to Magic sitting in the shopping cart when I decided I'd better check on it. Think I'll wait.

Southwest recently announced that they're flying to Montrose CO now, which opens up a lot of options, esp Telluride. I have a zillion SWA miles but so many of those places were unreachable from DEN. Plus bags and skis fly free. Granted, El Nino would be preferred in the C Rockies...

Yep, it's my coffee table ornament. On occasion, just sit back on the couch and open to a random page. Kickstarter FTW.

Niehues map of MRG came out today

Well that's the plan sure, but you don't have to go back very far to see how fast public sentiment can turn and decisions be taken out of their hands.
-
I lol'd but no doubt none of this will occur. Probably 50% chance resorts are closed altogether and if they're open I bet it won't be much different than normal, apres ski aside.

NH will monitor skiers for Coronavirus symptoms like "runny nose". https://boston.cbslocal.com/2020/09/23/new-hampshire-ski-resorts-winter-coronavirus-guidelines-rules/amp/

RIP to Toots Hibbert, a frequent visitor to Northampton in the late 90s and early 2000s back when there was a great local reggae scene. Guy was a legend.

gondy is running at Killington too for mtn biking.

KMart superthread?
-
Hiked KMart today and mask usage on trail might have been 10%. And really that was 10% higher than it needed to be.
-
On the whole though I agree with PFs and PBs sentiment. It'll be a full calendar year plus of having to roll with the punches, just gotta deal with what comes and appreciate whatever opportunities you have to be out in the snow. We're all in on uphill, lift served we're treating as bonus.
-
Hell the science says that porous, stretchy fabrics (common to gaiters) actually increase transmission. And most actual ski masks literally have holes. I also disagree that most wear them. Maybe on the coldest days but not on the majority of days. Imagine skinning with a mask? LOL
-
I'd say the beaches are about 50/50 masks during schlep down but I've not experienced dirty looks because I think deep down folks know it's dumb. To be fair packed beaches occurred much earlier on with more uncertainty. These days we have a whole summer sample size of minimal outdoor transmission to draw on. If there's a mask requirement on the hill it's purely for the optics.
-
I'd like to see the science behind a mask requirement on the hill.
