Couple-inches here this am and still coming down … and a lot of douchebags crashing their cars outside …
Do you think it’s worth hitting Jiminy tonight?
I don’t think it’s worth hitting Jiminy Peak tonight because of the ice that came through 2 days ago and all the melt. It’s better to hit up Jiminy Peak after the storm that’s coming Late Tonight into Thursday. Jiminy Peak Wed evening would be my pick for night riding this week. Followed up by Thursday evening. Even without the storm, it takes 3 days of blowing snow to correct melt issues.
