Should be interesting. Maybe frozen solid. Since the mountain is all natural with little grooming terrain may be limited to one intermediate run from the summit.

Is the forecasts hold true Sunday is going to suck all over New England. Likely a good day for pancakes and omelettes.

Upper Pike looked trashed this afternoon. Some other trails looked bad as well from across Route 4.

It's currently 57F
and rising at 1,800 feet and the forecast is to remain warm with wind until 10pm. There's fog at various altitudes and more r*in on the way before the change over. This isn't going to be pretty. The only silver lining is Pico's pond should be full.

Snow is gone. Not preserving anything. Even 49r which was open was wind set up snow with deep cat tracks and a stream running across the trail. Every natural trail I saw had too many brown patches to be open and that was at noon. Natural snow does not last.

Damn that's a blow to my plans - maybe I'll stop at Sunapee and use a Max pass day there. Skiing K Monday and don't want to waste 2 subpar days at K of my Max pass
