    I think the thread should be something like "Acidchrist Pillages Utah" or maybe "Acidchrist's holy-war on Utah"

    If you did the Gondi 20 times then you only did 50k vert. Your father must have not reset his watch that morning. I think 80k is :bs:

    Those are incredible numbers. I didn't think anyone could really do close to 40 runs off Collins. 5+ runs per hour is pretty impressive.

    He just texted that he's done 18,000 vertical before lunch. That's only 6 or 7 runs?

    He recovers pretty fast and is an animal when he's out there with his buddies in the testosterone cloud.

    We never got to ski Skyward and Cloudspin this trip. We were in the slides for 4 hours, then lunch, then Lookout and the day was done. Gore does have a funky layout, but the mountain itself has some very interesting terrain, big boulders and such. I actually prefer shorter glade skiing than the...

    Gore Mountain March 7, 2010

    Gore was simply spectacular! Since we drove from Lake Placid and stopped at The Gear Source on North Creek on the way, we didn't actually get skiing until just after 10am. By that time crisp cold morning was warming up and the snow softening. We did our first 3 runs on south facing slopes to...

    I went to Gore on Sunday, and we had super spring conditions and plenty of beautiful glades with soft corn snow. I believe it was better than Whiteface without the Slides and the meager glades they do have. Bummer about the logs and such. We took our friends with us who are from Lake Placid and...

    Slides are open - 25 feb 2010

    OK, maybe the slides aren't comparable to Hellbrook as a ski run in character, but I would have to say the Slides are probably as, if not more challenging, due to the numberable obstacles and tight spaces one must navigate, at least when I have been on them. I don't know if Hellbrook is steeper...

    The Slides at Whiteface aren't open very often. In 2008 I was lucky enough to ski them for the first time. They didn't open last year and they would not have opened this past week if it wasn't for that big dump we got last week. The Slides are pretty exciting skiing. They are wild and gnarly...

    Not my TR, but worthy read: Alta Headwaters 2/28

    I think the cross-post is more favorable than the report he posted in this forum.

    I'd say the slides are pretty comparable to the top of Mansfield...but you don't have to climb for it at Whiteface...unless you want to.

    http://www.famousinternetskiers.com/tri ... eadwaters/ I guess this is the same trip that Salida was on, based on the pix...but it's a more detailed TR.

    Greek Peak Feb 28, 2010 (pix added)

    It was snowing big fat flakes when I went to bed. In the morning found 4" of fluff. Pumped myself up with pseudofed and robitussen and got out early. In the cold-med haze I tracked up all the fresh snow in the trees at Greek Peak for 2 hours. My body was telling me I should call it a day, but...

    Awesome report! Jasons' story...priceless! Did she hold onto her phone or sacrifice it to the snow gods? Yesterday afteroon took a toll on our snow in CNY as well. XC skied in cement. MOre snow fell and it was like glue. Needed extra wax. At Greek Peak the wet heavy snow was set up and there...
