Thread: East Coast Roll Call V---> SO MUCH better then all the other roll calls

Hmrph, forecast is looking warmer... Unless the snow machine gets turned on, maybe we go somewhere else. Anyone skiing the Middlebury Snowbowl tomorrow?

At Sugarbush north today. Blue pants, green jacket, hudge smile.

I'm an idiot. LH was never calling for a 12". I need to work on my reading comprehension...

Headed to the bowl for backside laps. Anyone else game?

^^^ml, that was gnarly. Hats off.

Heading over to mt. Ellen after a cup of soup. It's a shit show over here at Lincoln. PJam I'll keep a look for you

I'd be game if I wasn't so lame... back home wheeling and dealing to keep Ullr happy. Glad he sent some goodies our way, though.


ML- Skiing in the dark... nice work and way to bring out Nihiles!


Crank, this needs to be bigger... great shot Eug!:

At Stratton today. Red/white Descente Swiss Team jacket over Spyder skinsuit, Reusch gloves, SuperG poles, and Rossi Super 7's with a TGR sticker.

I'll be doing hamstring stretches by the Waffle Haus for the next half hr. Say hi.

Great to see winter is finally starting to happen.

Sent from my Nexus S 4G using TGR Forums

Coming down hard in the notch really starting accumulate.

^^^of course it is. TC, I'm afraid I'm going to have to pack you in my suitcase for my trip to UT in two weeks. They need some help there ASAP.

Thanks, I was too lazy to figure out how to properly embed the image full-size with the new interwebz thing.

Wish I was up north getting in on some of this action, but alas back in the flatlands for the holidaze. Actually been out fishing, which has been a bit too unproductive, but since there's no skiing to be had around here, I gotta get out doing something..
Shoulda gone back north, but I guess I mis-read the forecast... Oh well. Glad to see that mother nature's finally getting her shit together.
Heading out to Jackson soon, and aside from the storm rolling through there now, things have been rough out there too... Guess we'll see how things play out.

Hope this coming mess stays solid up north.

Thanks Crank but unnecessary for us working stiffs . . . actually, kinda like pouring salt into an open wound! Hahaha. Ya bastard! Great shot! More snow please.

^^ Guess that's a bit more salt for ya, lynch... Oops.

NH will get it's turn, soon enough...

Ya that hurt too! Soon enough I hope but really is not soon enough! If the wait gets too much longer maybe strawjack will lend me the new backyard snow gun!

Hello all,
Thanks to Ryan @ Alpine Live, I just linked up w/ this forum. Looking forward to sharing info, and getting some of the best turns New England has to offer this year. It's the 1st time in years I'm not living @ a resort. The benefit: I can ski/ride wherever it's best. The sacrifice: I actually NEED to decide...
So, here's to the internet, and the opportunities it presents!
Tom

Don't think the 2" new would do much out there . I will send you a lock of hair though. Trails are boiler plate and scary everything natural has been poached and now it looks like we are in for a good glazing. Bummer

anyone know what the bush is going to be like tomorrow? prob crowded but would love a repeat of yesterday.

Where are all of the tracks?



Some surprisingly good turns to be had - the lower the angle, the more the fun

I for one got some laps off paradise traverse yesterday. Deepest snow I have skied in awhile- justified my 112rp's on their first day out. Castle rock just holds that snow. Prolly be at the bowl tomorrow with my kid. Grey jacket, grey helmet, beige pants - what's up with my color scheme?

The NWSis calling for under an in. I heard someone talking about 5 to 10. Who knows. Lincoln was pretty busy but North was pretty quit and in decent shape. Saw PJam09 and crew. May just stay there tomm.

Anyone have any hotel/lodging recommendations for the mad river area? Looks like we're going to take our chances there tomorrow. Also, any ideas regarding eating and drinking are welcome...


thanks for the help!

Seriously great stoke all, and Bottleman, Great call and nice work!

Diamondback and I hit up a stash today, you find some of the best turns in the most unexpected places. No wind affect and bottomless turns

Nice gets Bottle and TC! At home with wife and kids today, Mrs. Weasel and I both woke up with a NASTY stomach bug. Add to that cooped-up tinies, and we are survival parenting. More screen time for tinies today than the last month combined. Here's hoping the glazing turns to snow instead...
In better news, skis are DONE! Shipping from Keith on Monday...woot!

Very nice TC! Looks like my kind of pitch Temps are suddenly looking better for the overnight, although my optimistic outlook is obviously tempered by the fact that I had my first pow turns of the season and I am now just as deluded as the rest of youse. Still a little thin for this shopworn bastard but damn, it was good to feel the float again.

The new touring setup is a dream - loved my Dukes when they were "new" (and will still use them when needed) but DAMN, those Plum Guides make the up one Hell of a lot easier. Still, I must admit that I jongishly broke a pole whilst changing climbing gears Tough to teach an old dog new tricks
