Weekend Run to VT on 11/6

Baby powder? Ok, I'm scared. I'm really, really scared!

 

Is that "The Scream?" :eek

 

,,,,,,

 

Casa de Hutch will be open!!
In Wilmington Vermont, about 10 minutes from Mt. Snow and about 2 minutes from Haystack Mtn. I doubt there's any powder up there, but maybe some machine made... All are welcome!!!

 

Heck yeah I'm going, taxi yellow pinstripes and all. For the headers - well, its gonna haffta suffer while I beat the stink out of it.

Worst case scenario, I borrow my brother's Pcar that WON'T BREAK DOWN.

 

Atta boy. Is somebody compiling a master list of who's in or out?

As much as I'd like to, I'm probably more towards "out" than "in," due to work.

 

Count me in! Zen.

 

i'm in JC

 

Sam if it's okay i'll ride with you?

 

No new threads so I wonder if this run is still on in some way.

Just took a look at the longer range weather model solutions and all agree that the first truly arctic air intrusion of the season is coming into the northeast by Friday night so that means plenty cold and at least snow showers in the mountains of Vermont Saturday and as the air mass quickly moves out on Sunday there may be another chance of light snow on Sunday. The middle weeks of November are looking to be quite wintry this year.

Will keep you'all posted.

Vinny

 

Drive safe!

 

Vik, I thought you were coming on the Vt run?

 

I'll throw a transfer case, and a 3" lift on my TR to make it through the inclement weather!! Or maybe just take my Jeep! Not todays decision, but I'll keep an eye on the forecast, and see how it goes. Till then, PEACE OUT!

 

OK, who's in - please confirm on this thread, by PM or e-mail.

So far, I've got:
2 - Emil + 1
1 - Rene (with anyone?)
1 - Sam (with anyone?)
1 - JC (with anyone?)

5 People Coming to VT

Vik, Hubi, Pchop, Keith, Vinnycar, Geof, you guys coming?

Please let me know so I can figure out the arrangements.
Looking forward to seeing you all there, and anyone else who wants to come, you're more than welcome. Please note that there are 3 queen size beds and 4 bunk beds, so floor or couch space might be the sleeping quarters for the last ones up.

Can not make this one. Got a few things to take care of this weekend.

I'm planning on leaving Friday night after work.

WHO'S IN?

 

Officially a "no" due to work. You guys have a great time...and drink a couple of OJ's for me, would ya. -

 

I'm still maybe. Some old friends are in town later this week, but I don't actually know if they'll still be around on the weekend. Will know soon.

 

wasn't it Friday afternoon?
what time after work?

I'm in.

 

I can leave anytime really. Lets wait until Thursday so we have definites on who's coming.

 

Guys..I would not be in too much of rush to get up there Friday. You cannot beat the coming storm. A cold rain will start here in the tri-state by Thursday evening and in Vermont by midnight Thursday. The rain will end down here Friday morning but rain will probably turn to snow over the northern parts of VT and NH during the day Friday and accumulations on the higher elevations can not be ruled out. The storm will end up there as snow showers Friday evening. Saturday and Sunday look pretty nice but cold with maybe just a few snow showers early Saturday on the preferred mountains.

 

nice vinny!
