Solstice Bonfire

Closed, today, Monday, 14º at 7 a.m. 1 inch of snow yesterday over what remains of the base. Some areas in the woods still have great coverage. Some low areas are melted out, and some areas are patchy with stones and grass poking through.

Snow forecast for Tuesday: sounds like about 3-5″ for Peru, which might not be quite enough to get back open. Cross your fingers and your toes, and put a little extra effort into your snow dance!

Events:

Friday, December 20 5:30pm. Winter Solstice Party, with West River Sports This event is a pot luck, please bring a dish to share. Remember your head lamp. If we get enough snow this week, bring skis. If the snow is bad, bring snow shoes or ice grippers. For this event it looks like the weather will cooperate and stay cold. The event will happen unless it rains. It’s always great fun to enjoys the solstice bonfire with friends.We may or may not have enough snow for skiing.

AND on December 21st, from 10am until 2pm, if there is enough snow, a ski demo day hosted by West Hill Shop from Putney. Jim is bringing different types of skin skis. They have a mohair type strip on the bottom of the ski as the grip. Great skis, good time to test drive. Again, if there is enough snow, come and test out some new skis. If there is not enough snow, the event will be postponed.
