Countdown to winter...skiing and snow!

Don't you love this time of year?! August is a beautiful month for boating, biking, and of course buying back to school supplies for the kids. Yippee..it's a time of anticipation for school kids, parents and skiers most of all! While you won't find us skipping through the aisles at Staples and Walmart...you will see we have been checking out all the snow report prognostications on ski resort websites, facebook and twitter and of course the Farmer's Almanac!

Check out these ski and snow predictions we compiled, these ski season indicators are optomistic if not entirely objective (or based in any meteoroligical fact).

Which of these ski forecasts for 2012-13 winter do you "like" best? Let us know on facebook ....

With less than 100 days away till skiing in New England and many Rocky Mountain ski resorts, it is time to start planning your winter ski season.

Where are you planning to ski this season?

Did you buy a season pass at your usual place?

Or are you planning a big ski trip out west, heli skiing in the Canadian Rockies or a ski vacation in the  European Alps?

Let us know and keep those skis tuned and the snow thoughts optomistic...see you on the slopes soon!
