Pisten Bully vs. The Drift, Part II: PistenBully was victorious, and reached the top of Mt. Washington today, April 10, 2025.

Perfect conditions– a “50-cent Day” as the locals call it–allowed for Spring Clearing to the summit. MWAR GM Tobey reports that this weekend’s Spring Adventure Tours will definitely make it to Cragway Drift, and perhaps even the 6-mile mark, weather permitting, of course.
