Hi Folks,
As every year goes by I feel ever more strongly how fantastic it is to be able to live with people I love, in a place that I love, doing what I love to do... I truly wish that you enjoy this special day and enjoy it with people that you love. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.
I don't have a whole lot to say right now as I've been over the top with work and the holiday, so here's an abbreviated Report. The weather has been very up and down, but still quite cold at night. That's good… A system from the North brought major winds here in the Valley and vicinity all day on Wednesday, leaving debris and downed trees everywhere and causing some scattered power outages. That was bad, but at least it was cold and we were lucky not to have any major problems here in the Valley. It looks as if another system will be moving through tonight, bringing more cold temps and the proverbial Wintry Mix. This is really the kind of thing we're been waiting for as it will fill in things with snow and build the ice. I'm hoping to get up into Crawford Notch on Saturday to scope out the state of things and possibly get up into the ravines on Monday. I've got my fingers crossed, cross yours too.
FLASH - On Friday morning we got our first significant snowfall here in the Valley. Probably only around 3/4 to 1 inch, but it's very cool. It's now officially winter...

Up on one of the Mount Washington Valley's finest crags and want to know what that climb you're looking at is? Or maybe you're on your way up from Boston and want to check out the Ice Report for your upcoming weekend plans. Or more likely, you're at work just want to daydream about your next adventure. Well if you have a smart phone handy, you can get to NEClimbs from anywhere you have cell service. While it doesn't offer every single feature of the site and it's not an "app", in mobile form, it does do a whole lot and is very useful. Here is the live link to the mobile version of NEClimbs:
