The forcasts the last 10 days have not lasted 12 hrs before they change, love the optomistic long term fo-casts as it makes it easier to have powder dreams. I found plenty of wooly bears this fall that all point to a great winter.
GA, get after the fitness to enjoy the snow later.www.apriliaforum.com

At this point it's all pipe dreams but I've had some damn fine days in October so watching and waiting is the best policy IMHO
For sure, you have to be lost to find a place that can't be found, elseways everyone would know where it was

Long term forecasts may be worth little, but I've followed Dr. Hutz's advice to early season pow 3 of the last four years. On all occasions he predicted much more snow than the weather establishment predicted, if they predicted any, and Dr. Hutz was right. It's time to mount dynafits on rock skis.

Damn, went to Baltimore for a long weekend and ended up on page 7. Lots of catching up to do.
To all the folks kicking cancer's ass...fight the good fight. Mrs. MNIAW is still dealing with it but is winning. Kinda cool to live with a woman with a bucket list! She'll be joining me at Work Day #2 on Saturday. Her new goal is to ski Magic and hang at the BLBP this winter.
Radam...sorry to hear about your spill. I owe you a ride somewhere with borken bones so don't hesitate to ask.
DoWork, that comment about nordic girls and lobsters had me laughing out loud. You've obviously never been to Denmark!
TC, those are some sweet fish pics.
Laser, props for starting 6.0. See you at Magic this weekend?
Biff, saw your avatar all over Oriole Park at Camden Yards this past weekend. Red Sox suck but it was a great weekend anyway.
Screws come out of my knee on 15th...will prevent me from getting to Ullrfest but I plan on skiing K on Veteran's Day.
Just want to throw out a public service announcement to my former colleagues...October 3-4 is the anniversary of the Battle of the Black Sea portrayed in the movie Blackhawk Down. Most don't remember the date but those that are connected to that event will never forget. Lots of heroes.

Trying to appreciate every minute that I can. Rainy days or bluebird gold, we all get one spin on this wheel (that we are sure of), everything else is a dream.
I don't know whether the colors are extra special this year, but they seem like it. Perception is 9/10's of reality.

Posting here in hopes that this year I stop being so jaded and re-embrace my EC roots.
Also, looking for 1 guy and 1 girl for my Thursday Night Race League team at Whaleback. Last year we were a solid B League team and our 2 slowest dropped out.There's a lot to be said for nowhere.

Good luck today Radam. After this, you'll be bionic.
It's not tragic to die doing what you love.

The foliage is spectacular this year. Not so much in the valleys, but along the spine and Rte 100 it's blazing!

I don't care what Petrics says, Inner Bootworks is the best. Benny is a bootfitting wizard: Some of you know that my husband's leg was crushed by a lift shack at Jay years ago while he was patrolling (let's just say it was a windy day). His injuries were so bad, docs wanted to amputate it, but Woodcorps said "no way, I need it to play." Needless to say, he still has his leg and watching him ski, you'd never know he had such a catastrophic injury (but his leg looks pretty ugly). Anyway, one of his injuries was his ankle -- it was blown apart by the force of the impact and to this day, he has very little range of motion. Getting his foot into ski boots, and being comfortable while skiing, was elusive until I met my husband and introduced him to Benny. Benny saved the day, and Woodcorps won't go to anyone else. We both swear by him. Quite a few Jay patrollers go to Benny too. You should definitely look him up.
Loving all the fall foliage photos! I live off the South Richford Road and had to run an errand yesterday that turned into a "long way home" kind of drive because the foliage is peaking here. Spectacular, breathtaking, fabulous, awesome -- all that and more. Get out there now to enjoy it!

I agree on Benny, that guy is awesome. He saw my leg and how distorted it was and asked what happened. I told him and it was like I was celebrity. He knew all about the accident and waived the charge and stayed an hour after they closed to tweak the boot several times until it was perfect and it was. that foot on the injured leg has become mass of bone spurs and pain. but those boots were like warm gloves when he was done. Been going there ever since. I am about to take my new maestrale RS's there. He likes whiskey if you want the special treatment.
