wishful thinking, rewarded

snowflake_03302005.jpgIt turns out that there’s more to this crazy end-of-winter/beginning-of-spring weather that we’ve been experiencing in town. Beyond the consequences of whether to break out the GoreTex for the afternoon commute, this wacky indecisive climate seems to have an effect on the mountains. Snowboarders and skiiers whose spirits were crushed by the fantastically mild winter might have one last reason to hope. As hinted at by a morning bulletin (15″ of snow in the past 24 hours and it’s still coming! Don’t put away your ski/snowboard gear just yet!), fans of the winter sports can keep their dreams alive for at least another weekend:

The Summit is re-opening in time for April Fool’s Day; it’s no joke!

Summit West will be open Friday through Sunday (April 1st-3rd) from 9AM-4PM. And there’s more…here’s the news you Alpentalics have been waiting for all season:

    I can’t believe I may get a chance to go snow-shoeing this weekend. An unexpected turn of events, but delightful nonetheless. And eerie. Eccentric weather would be much easier to enjoy if it didn’t bring with it worrisome thoughts about Global Warming End Times. Well, at least I’ll get a chance to put a bit more mileage on my still almost brand new snowshoes.

    Nice snowflake!
