Very similar conditions at Burke on Saturday. All man-made groomed runs. THe surface had frozen after the groomers were done with it resulting in a block of ice. THe skiing was extremely fast. The only saving grace was that there was NOBODY there resulting in me staying all day. Today's storm...

Nice Work Steve! I inally got my pics and movies off of my camera. I will get you a disk ASAP. In the meantime...

Positive is bad... http://www.theweatheroutlook.com/datnao.aspWhat is NAO?

It has been a tough year :cry:

I like the new setup! Being able to click on a picture to enlarge it is better in my opinion.

The Throne is a pretty nice bowl. Actually probably the easiest of the headwalls to ski. I had a very good run down it. It sounds like you went a little farther over. By the time I got there that line had been skied out so I pted for an unused line that went between some trees. It is good to...

Great report! I too want to get back to Crystal sometime with my OWN equipment so that I can fully experience all of the terrain. :D

You may want to check that these may not be valid until AFTER January 1st.

Check out my report from last March. http://www.firsttracksonline.com/boards ... ht=crystalCrystal Report Crystal was a great mountain. There is a lot to explore there (more than you can effectively do in one day). Just make sure you don't rent skis there :oops: :wink:

Pick one pieces are still out there... OF course there is some amount of modesty by wrapping the upper half in fur :lol: :lol:

Driving times- Columbus to Montpelier (roughly centrally located) = 12 hours. Columbus to Vail = 20 hours Depends on what you want but I have had excellent days of skiing at the end of April on the East Coast. As Riverc0il pointed out, you may not be skiing powder, but you should have good...

Sooo many places to try :D Thanks for the recommendations Patrick!

Looks like a great weekend for a hike! Now that we finally have the nasty hot muggy air out of here for a while. I would have been hiking too. Instead, I was racing mtn bikes at Mt Washington. Still a very good time.

I actually didn?t REALLY start skiing until I came back to Vermont from college :shock: . I skied 2 times before I went to college (I grew up playing hockey). Both times were at Burke (10 and 13 years old). I went to college in Iowa, began to appreciate mountains more and have been skiing ever...

Great Job Steve! :D

There are rumors flying about that the high speed lift to the summit will not be put in :? . Much of this is due to how much money was lost this winter. In my opinion, the one thing they absolutely need to do to atract return clientelle is to have a high speed lift to the summit. Everybody was...

Had a pretty good day considering the rain the day before. Was supposed to meet Lftgly at 9:00 at Pinkham but unfortunately I forgot the whole "Spring ahead" thing. Ian also got there later than I did due to similar circumstances. So we got started an hour late. The hike up was already really...

Burke 4/2

There's Skiing in Egypt? :P

Sorry that this is a little late but I figured it was still worth a post. I was in Seattle on business so I decided that I would try out some West Coast skiing. I had decided through recommendations and the fact that I had a free ticket :wink: that I would try out Crystal Mtn. This proved to...
