Awwww.... you, too:




Maybe I can get those zero camber Gots to go this year...?

[neufox47]

Picked up a pair of Praxis Pow's and Moment Tahoe's to add to the quiver. Hopefully there are a lot of days to use the Praxis Pow's.

Looking forward to do more touring outside of Mt. Washington...

Debating what to do about passes this year... Do lots of 2 for 1's at Jay (assuming that sweet coupon appears in the map again), get a bunch of $40 tickets at Wildcat, and buy lift tickets anywhere else it snows, or buckle up and pay crazy $ for a pass somewhere and be more limited in where I go...

Hopefully there are more days like this..

[RolnThunder]

Between the pics posted here and the anticipation of Ullrfest, I cannot even begin to convey how stoked I am for this winter. It makes it increasingly difficult to get work done...

Looking forward to do more touring outside of Mr. Washington...

As for this, I think I can help you. I have a list of mountains and slides I want to beta in the limited time I will have off this season. I guarantee nothing. I've had some mindblowing days and others where the bushwacking takes so long there is almost no time to get turns in. Something tells me I will be doing a lot of winter camping this year

Keep the stoke fire going!

A couple from a past day out with Greg:


Sorry Greg, but I love this picture






And a little winter camping stoke:

It's still summa so out riding, MTC yesterday MTB today. Started out cloudy, but after a haircut hit up the singletrack for some reaction training.

The mossy green rocks are slick and treacherous



Roots, rocks, incline




Everyone [if you roll a big ring] leaves their mark.



A stop at the Alchemist, winner of the 2010 "Best Brew Pub" yet again, for some Heddy Topper. Dare I say EC Mags favorite apres ski?



Not the best pic, but the sun is out, so you get the idea, I hope.

[akokskis]

and others where the bushwacking takes so long there is almost no time to get turns in.

Hahaha, that was fun.





oh, and don't forget about the falling-in-the-river part



Let's get back in there again this year, eh? I need some revenge.

Hells yes.

Nothing like a collapsing snow bridge to wake you up after that trek in

Completely agree. I think you'll enjoy some of the places I want to drag you out to.

I'm surprisingly excited to be skiing on the EC again this year.

Sounds sweet, would love to come along on some trips. See you at Ullrfest.

I keep using the approaching ski season as motivation to get in better shape and study so I don't have to study during the ski season...

Long Magic stoke from two seasons past

Those were the days when NOBODY showed up at Magic

[lionelhutz]

Very good timing....pretty widespread frost tonight with freeze possible in some locations.
(not that this will be a cold fall...or that this will stick) ...just will be a nice taste.

Also- and I'll prob. catch some flak for this but I don't care...it's a great service...check out the fiswx twitter/report feed on the weather page. You all can use this this winter. Tweet @fiswx, or text/email to fiswx@gmail.com the snow/weather/ski conditions where you are. It will appear on the feed. If you follow fiswx on twitter you should get all these reports from your friends. The more you do it, the faster the system gets as well.
Anyway....blah blah blah...bitch about spam, whatever, it is for your benefit, don't use it if you don't want to.

Not going to get too lit

[HankScorpio]

I read through this new EC thread yesterday then had a dream last night that it dumped on Mt. Washington and I skipped work to rip September powder all day. I fucking woke up and swear to god it was real.

I really need to start skiing.

In the mean time, more stoke. Stowe woods last season:

I've been driving from the Bronx to the greens almost every weekend. It started in 1976 when I turned 16 and got my license, I drove straight up to MRG and have kept the If it's snowing where going mantra ever since. I taught my daughter how to ski there and spent this past Christmas day skiing with her (shes 21 now) and it was perfect. Every season is special because there all different ,its all good. I'm 50 now skiing better than ever on my 186 Bros I just bought skins and would like to join in on any trips in the backcountry. I enjoy reading the roll call, a lot of passion.

Yellowfin, you should talk to I've Seen Black Diamonds. He's living in Brooklyn and doing the regular drive up north each weekend. I think earlier in this thread he reported 15k miles last winter. Almost all of his skiing was BC. Get those skins and look him up....

Oh, and don't forget to take me with you!

(edited for naming accuracy, sorry ISBD).

[Skirotica]

I'm currently in Boston, but headed to Jackson for the season starting in December. I'm a grad student at MIT, and decided I needed a break after this round of school. I've had a few 10-day seasons, and last year was 27. This year, I'm hoping for 100. Hopefully I'll get a few early-season days in Vermont.

You're gonna let a neighbor crash on your floor this winter, aren't you?

[polarbear28]

Loving this thread....This and the cold nights up in Lake Placid this weekend really getting me fired up for the season!!! Looking forward to meeting some of the mags this year and exploring Magic & all its glory!

[bern43]

Loving the stoke. Hopefully I'll get to ski with some of you this year.

I usually like to start off the season by brushing the dust off of my condescention generator too.

[kingdom-tele]

Still in Afghanistan but will be home late November and its ON this year as I missed out on winter '10.

Beers on me Brewski - stay safe

Rog - thats the problem with you NH boys, no imagination, if the line isn't staring you in the face you don't think there's anything to ski
