Bah! Well, I'm glad that at least I slept in... guess the job search will start today..
Bowl tomorrow though!

Just had a tits face shot first run, god damn I love surprise pow days. Pics on retard level.

^^^and I love work! Another missed day for work. I think it's time for a new hobby. Concepts for sale. Like new.

GAH, shoulda stayed north! Damned silly girls with jobs that need to get back home..
Can't wait to see pics

It was snowing hard on the drive home from Jay. I figured today would be great. Eager to see them pics.

edit: TC did you get my PM? I was pretty zonked and can't really remember whether I sent it or not.

the slick spots kept things exciting but it wasn't hard to ski good snow top to bottom with eyes peeled and staying in the right spots.


caught a miracle 3:46 chair after a harried run through fall line.

back down at 4:25.
worked and happy.

ok a little jealous. mad will be $$.
go get it!

So long as you don't care that I disappear upstairs for a half-hour at 7 to put the tinies to bed (Kerri is away), dinner tomorrow at my place for those who can stick around in Midd.... My (in)famous alfredo is on tap, haven't made it in a while. Either real-deal or gluten/dairy free options will be available. BYOB.

gack...missed PTT, thanks lemmy

We have wild life.



I had to yell at this bozo to get off the race course sort of distracting to racers. Then I noticed another parent telling him he was making his mountain (Ragged) look like a joke and to hike through the woods to find a different way down.

Ohhh, I had that box checked to source locally....

Gotta open the thumbnail, and grab the URL of the photo. Then put that into img tags. You can quote my msg to see what I'm talking about..




Also, PM inbound.

^^^looks good all blown up.

So I'm taking a clinic at Loon Feb 13-14. Looking for either hostel reccos or a couch to crash on if anyone lives in that area. Happy to provide beer and references.

Appropriate quote from this weekend (thanks Mark Twain): "Good decisions come from experience. Experience comes from making bad decisions."

Nice pic of Neufox laying it over....

T-Minus 1.5 hours till MRG departure. See some maggots there tomorrow?

^^ Dude, the bowl's the place to be. Should be hoppin'!

Addit: I totally reserve the right to change this opinion based on pics from TC... We'll see.

Anyone that wants some stoke should check out josh fox's update at the mrg weather blog.

...evolving into a massive snow producer in the Sunday/Monday time frame...

Game on!

Not Lynn but in the same area. Very similar riding. And I'm definitely going to miss riding like this when I leave the north shore. Regardless of where I go I doubt there will anything quite like Lynn.


And I'll be at MRG tomorrow. Decided to wait a day because I'm a cheap fuck. Could be quite good. Looks pretty dead today, plus a couple of more inches tonight and there could be some nice pow stashes!

^^^ its already game on after last night, next few days are looking good also, but of course more is always welcome. Got some pics to put after I get some work done. What an awesome day, heard alot of this is is the best day of the season so far.

Neufox- thanks for the review and looking good dude! good hanging with all you guys this weekend. I was digging the humpbacks in the deep today.

MRG was surprisingly nice today with much better cover than I had expected. New snow got pushed around quickly but there were definitely some soft turns. 18" of snow at the stake so no woods turns for this injured too many times while trying to making chicken soup from chicken shit veteran. Snowing lightly but no accumulations through 1:00 or so.

Did some Bowl recon on the long way home and it's possible they may have over-exaggerated their report of a dusting Truly dust on crust at the top of the Gap, leading me to believe that Bailey's would not be the preferred choice for tomorrow. Stopped in the lot to find 15 cars (I counted) and a string of empty chairs. Allen looked buffed to perfection and still corduroy at 2PM. If folks are still game I'd happily rip cruisers and ride lifts at the Bowl tomorrow - would love to ski MRG again but I can't stomach the turn back the clock Gong Show any more. My sense is that General Stark's will be skied out by the end of today, much less tomorrow AM unless folks have bigger balls, fatter skis, younger knees and higher risk tolerance than I have to go adventuring.

Just my two centavos.

Post will be copied and pasted on epicski.

I have one crappy cell pic from earlier today that will give you a little taste...I'm sure TC will have much better goods to share later but it was definitely better than I expected. I hit this spot 3 times starting around 10:00 and never saw anyone eles's tracks. Surprise powder day indeed and practically empty until around noon.

Nice turn Neufox!

If I knew we were allowed to post pictures of carving on groomers I could have captured the Missus and I rocking it under the Birdland Chair today
