Great Weather And Easter Goodies

Easter Goodies
Happy Easter everyone. I hope that you were able to enjoy the amazing weather we had this weekend. Unfortunately it will be coming to an end as the next storm system moves in tonight. The past two days dozens of people made their way up Mount Washington to take advantage of the great backcountry skiing. Conditions were great for end of the season runs. Several people even wore bunny ears on their climb up for the holiday weekend, making for some interesting pictures next to the summit sign.
And while the actually Easter Bunny wasn’t spotted on the summit, he did manage to make his way up here leaving some goodies for everyone at the Observatory. When we awoke this morning we found two plates full of chocolates and jelly beans. There were even Easter eggs so we could have an egg hunt later tonight. Between the awesome weather and visit from the Easter Bunny, it’s been a great weekend. I will be sad to see stormy weather moving in, but hopefully it will add to the snowpack improving the skiing conditions for next weekend.
