A few of us Fredneckians are planning on going to Snowshoe on New Year's Day. we'll be leaving way, way early so if you plan on partying the night before, you probably won't make it. We'll probably leave Frederick at 6am-ish. So far, Snowshoe has 90" of snowfall and the next 5 days (starting tonight) will be colder and on the 31st and 1st, the high will be around 32 degrees with snow. Perfect day for hitting the slopes!
