BKL Fall THURSDAY- On Snow Adventure!!

We are going for an early snow ski adventure!  Peter Davis is rolling Tomasi’s Field which is next to Casey’s Hill in Underhill. The grass has been mowed very short so the 3-4 inches of snow we got on Wednesday should be enough to ski on. It will be fun to get on skis and check out Tomasi’s!

Time: 3:45 to 4:45 pm (come early and/or stay as long as you want)

Location: Tomasi Field/Casey’s Hill. 16 Mountain Rd., Underhill, VT 05489.

Parking: There is small lot for a few cars at the 16 Mountain Rd address by Casey’s Hill. If the lot fills up, drop off your kid(s) and go back and park at Underhill Central School. I have been told that it’s possible to ski through the school fields and then some other fields across the road to link up with Tomasi’s. We might be able to shuttle as well.

What to bring:  Any skis are fine for today, but if you have a choice, bring some no-wax classic skis. I will bring some TOKO yellow for anyone who has waxables and needs wax.  I am also going to throw my rock skate skis in the car just in case the skating is doable.  Feel free to bring extra skis- it will be a good day to try things out!

BRING YOUR HEADLAMP!!  It will definitely be dark when we finish.

See you there!

BKL Fall Friday #2 : Cancelled :(

It looks like we are in for a downpour and lots of rain between 3:45 and 4:45 tomorrow.  We will set our sights on next week, when we will meet on Thursday!
