Today, June 11, it is raining. The spring has been cool, with some wonderful days. I've not yet been out on my bike but been running consistently to prepare for the 1812.
I have grossly neglected the blog and it is time to re-engage. So, here are the highlights from 2012 - 2013 ski season.
First, the weather synopsis. In Watertown,we had a strong start in December with a remarkable and exceedingly warm January thaw. A January thaw is typical, but this one skyrocketed temperatures into the upper 50's with driving rain. Dry Hill is sheltered with a northern exposure, but the warm temperatures and driving rain really hurt the base. Skiing rebounded well in late January, February and March. We likely logged over 20 days and had several wonderful family moments with Lily in a harness loving the run down the hill.
We also had some great family travel and boy trips. A quick list:
December: Whiteface
January: Gore, Whiteface, Alta
February: Jay Peak
March: Dry Hill, Snow Ridge
