Storm Speculation 3-7-18 (Quinn)

If I wasn't meeting a buddy at Platty tomorrow I might call an audible and head to magic. Magic always makes me slightly nervous. I spent an hr or so one year waiting for them to fix the chair after a dump. Helpless feeling

Ya, the black chair isn't spinning at all tonorrow, but old red should purr.

You're a good friend.

I broke a major rule. "There is no friends on a powder day". Platty is fine today but photos from mnt snow have me wishing I went north east not south. There is always tomorrow

Two is company, as they say, but would three be (too big of) a crowd?

Since I was in Boston by Thursday night, I drove 2 hours up to Tenney Mountain in NH on Friday.  Just re-opened after 8 years this week after a dump of 14 inches.  New owners have been working very hard for a few years.  I can understand why locals are so happy to have the 1300 ft ski area operational again.  Nothing was groomed for Opening Day, 3/7/2018.  There was a little grooming for Friday but a few trails will be left ungroomed.  Only the Hornet lift was open.  Classic old school New England trails.

Tenney Mountain, Plymouth, NH, a few miles from I-93


Tracks under lift line near the top, lift line open for skiing almost all the way down


Still a bit more work to do on the lodge, but it's functional
