Awesome cause, this is the first I've heard that it will open again. Is it prone to falcon nesting? Seems like pretty ideal conditions catching as much sun as it does.

One of my neighbors is testing out their fireplace. Kind of weird considering it's still pretty warm out, are there going to be xmas lights in the halls tomorrow? Still, as danmelon pointed out, last year we were skiing deep pow three weeks from now.

There are 2 spots around Bolton with known nesting sites that have yearly closures that I know of, Upper west cliff in the notch and another on Bone. There is also one not far away on Snake which I have viewed multiple times in the last 10yrs.
There used to be a nesting pair on the east side of smuggs notch but as far as I know they were not nesting there the last few years.

Long awaited connections are nearing completion. This is the bottom third of the objective. We 'shwacked alongside it for slightly less than 500 vertical feet. there is so much sluff and slide that there is usually about 35-40 feet of snow collected in the flat. Definitely have to employ Avy Protocols...but if you start down in 4 feet of fresh*, you are committed, the average grade is xxxx (NOTE: the average angle is a tick over 50 degrees and it's just over 500 feet).
* Feb '07, my 1st, but not the first, that was many decades earlier.

Cannon test fired today. They will start in earnest next week. They claim to be aiming to spin Nov 24.

Hiked up Mt. Philo today. State is cutting a new WNW line from the road to upgrade power (I think) to the pump at the well behind the ranger's station. Cut stays mostly in the fall line and should make for a nice 700' line if we ever get snow there. The cut line reaches the Mt. Philo road about 1/4 mile North of the park entrance.

Seems Ullrfest has been the signal for a new thread for a few years. Winter still seems a long ways off this year.

When do other regions usually start theirs? 1st appreciable snowfall? 1st open trail?
Feels like we're a good two weeks out from Killington having an open run up top. Start it then?

I must be getting old, my son is more psyched for the cold weather than I am. We're still doing this shit.
I probably deserve a dick punch.
