8-am, Sunday, Jan 11, and it is a warm 38-degrees and very moist Sunday morning here at Waterville Valley: the main lift opened at 8-am, just as the predicted all-day long rain starts to be raining ..... ugh ..... pitter-patter ....raindrops are falling from the ski.....just a little rain, but very dreary looking ...... oh well .... no lift line and almost no skiers loading the lift here what with skiing in the rain ..... supposedly, more normal below 32-degree temps will be here all week long, starting tomorrow, on Monday? It looks like three skiers got on the first two chairs, at opening when they remove the rope gate, and now after about five minutes of empty chairs go by with no one on the lift.....looks like a deserted early morning start....there's no one skiing? So many empty chairs on the chairlift on channel D121-2 twc ..... think I'll go take a drip-trip walk around the golf course.
