I hope I can get at least one more day on the snow there before they close. I wouldn't mind hitting it on a warm day when I can throw on some light clothes and ski my twin tips for a few hours. Follow that up with some BBQ from Blue Ridge Pig and a few beers, and it makes for nice spring skiing. I did that one year with temps in the 60s, and it was a good time.
Amen to that last one!
Hard to beat a day skiing at Wintergreen and a some of those "rustic meats" from Blue Ridge Pig in Nellysford ... with beer, of course! Happy skiing, 219!

PS I'm off to Sugarbush-Stowe for a week. Seems like the NE has had a fine season so far.
Have a good time up there Woody!
Does anyone know about the quality of Massanutten skiing/riding at the moment? I haven't see or heard any reports from there and would love to get one last day of spring riding in before they close doors.
Brad,
Check out their web site and send a PM to skibumMSP, a patroller at the Nut.
