Fighting off a cold and pumping a lotta' iron made me feel like I got run over by a truck by the end of the week. On Saturday morning, I looked up at Stark Mountain and it looked like it was ran over by a truck ...... Well, I wanted to get some required 1st Aid Practice outta' the way so I...

Being too much of a goodie-2-shoes dork, I droned 'til 4:30 on Friday. After that, it was the standard drill - hubs locked, refuel at Purmort, white knuckle driving on I-89, 2 pints at the Hyde Away (didn't even have to ask - as soon as I sat down, a Long Trail was poured for me without even...

The Northeast Kingdom ain't as far away from Boston as ya' might think. Yeah, Burke. I can make Jay Peak in 3-3.5 hours and I'm a conservative driver. So, within 2-3.5 hours, you can get to Cannon, Burke, Jay Peak which all are ski areas that register acceptable readings on the McScale...

White knuckle driving commenced around Royalton on I-89, a little after channel surfing landed me on Alice Cooper's radio show - if you're a Child of the 70's and never outgrew that era like me, you'd find that show amusing (not to mention you probably need professional help :lol: ). Humour...

Once in 1987, I was being grilled by a female border crossing guard who just happened to be female. After a while, I asked her for a date =P~ , which totally disarmed her and caused her to laugh and let me through. I have been since told that is not the thing to do :shock: .......hey, I...

While I'm at it, I'll give you some more info on the Mad River Valley. Here's some trails that should be on your Hit List: Mascara Mountain (Sugarbush South/Lincoln Peak) Jester Murphy's Glade (not a tight glade - just a few trees here 'n there) Glen Ellen (Sugarbush North/Mount Ellen)...

I recommend going back to Smuggs nNnotch (I have been barred from using that "C" word :roll: ), assuming ya' liked it. You might wanna' go for the Mad River Valley - home of Sugarbush (which includes Mascara Mountain and Glen Ellen) and Mad River Glen. For an intermediate, there is a ton of...

Up the skin track on Bunny I went .....and at the intersection with Broadway, I ran into some of the Plaid Cult. Uh, oh I had to crank it up a few notches in order to keep up with them to the mighty summit. Down Cat Bowl we went, finding nice candy. I was a bit tentative due to my cautious...

...hey .....Hey .....HEY!! Very cool early season day 8) . But, Sven, always remember, that snow that gets scoured off of the wind prone slopes has gotta' wind up somewhere. Hint, hint, hint .....

Ned, was that your first day? Ya' know how it is - to a starved man, even a Big Mac starts looking awfully good.

Some work was done on it a few weeks ago: http://www.telemarktalk.com/phpBB/viewt ... hunderbolt Bellows Pipe is in fine shape 8) .

Guhzundheit. Um, nope. Shefftz has been quiet lately. I was in the North Presidentials on Sat and Sun and there was a surprising amount of snow. I saw lotsa' tracks at Cannon when I drove by Sat morning. So, I'm surpised Jonathan was not out on the East Snowfields or something like that...

I feel your pain, man. Being a Monday Morning Quarterback, I'd say that your best bet for last weekend woulda' been to take a Red Eye into Logan International on Wednesday noght and head out on Route 2 to get a taste of that Central Mass Champagne 8) : http://www.firsttracksonline.com/boards...

It was the big day - our annual Thamksgiving Day Club meeting where we poach Wa-wa's daunting North Face :shock: . I was a hog and got there early at 007:19:23 EDT in the State Pahk station which serves as the bottom of the toll road. Without waiting for other club members, I skinned over to...

Centex? Sounds like some sorta' new drug put out by a mega pharmaceutical corporation like Pfizer, Merck, MegaDrug Inc-Gmbh-Ltd; something that would help out with E.D., baldness, sadness, madness. Is this Looney Tune project gonna' be around where those 2 non lift served trails with a NW...

Well, ya' know how a few weeks ago, I said that October and November really were'nt ski season and that any decent skiing you get then is gravy. Well, I got some mighty tasty gravy, today ...... Friday was a 13 hour Dronefest that only got tougher as the day went on with me getting sliced 'n...

Actually, I like groomers .........it's just not every single friggin' run at a McResort that boasts about how they BRUTALLY GROOMED 98% of their terrain. I like pizza & beer, too, but not every single friggin' meal.

If they were serious about that, they wouldn't touch anything :lol: Well, I droned, today. I see that Woodi guy from Clarkson made some turns on the Whiteface Highway ........I'm envious. What wuz' it I said about not getting your hopes up for skiing in October and November ........ :roll:

Whaleback? .......yeah, buddy. I always drool over that steep face as I round that sharp curve on I-89, almost causing me to lose control of my truck. Seriously, that's got a very impressive pitch :shock: . It has the Apres' Ski, too - the Purmort NH Truck Stop, a happening scene 24 hours a...

Tony, that's some sweet lookin' "gravy". Come to think of it :idea: ...... hmmm, lift served days in November that stand out: 1986: Killington got hit with 14" (howcum I can recall exact snowfall totals from almost 20 years ago, but forget birthdays, etc) and then some more squalls in...
