My girls are at 60 days and the trichs are just turning cloudy, I wanted to take them to 70 but I'm not getiing power back for 5 or 6 days. Should I cut them now and just go with what I've got? Will the trichs continue to mature and amber up if I leave them in the dark for a couple days? Should I just leave them and put them back under the lights when (if) the powers back on next week?What's the max amount of time they can be left in the dark before it will cause problems? Any help will be appreciated.

Hey man, 5 or 6 days is too much to go without the intense light... If you can't get power on, you should harvest now..

Well you got 3 choices

If you chop wait 2 days than do it, will be good for the resin production.
Put outside and bring in 12 hr only.
I have power issues and have had the lights off for 4 days with no issues, don't know what 6 days would do.

Glow sticks :) Lots and lots of glow sticks to maintain the photo period. Or better yet use a coleman lantern and just make sure not to burn the house down. Should provide some beneficial CO2 as well.

^^^^^ I totalitly agree here, you probably want to lean towards giving them 48hours of darkness before cutting...outside could make them stressed and push seeds. sorry to here that and wish much better luck on the next turn!
