Skiing in November

It may have happened before, but I don't remember ever skiing in November.  After all, I live on the east coast and have limited time before Christmas.  I should still be raking leaves, right?  Actually, I still AM raking leaves.  Anyway, Wachusett has been open (early season hours) for two weeks.  It's time to get out, shake down all my equipment, and hit the slopes! 

This night, Wachusett has 6 trails open (one more than yesterday). 

I had the place nearly to myself except for a handful of teen snowboarders.  As you can tell by the photo below, there is a lot of acreage not yet covered, but that won't deter me from getting in a few good runs.

I actually wound up skiing longer than I had intended, about 1:15.  Fun night!
