Pffff... That's kids' play, man.

Get on my level! LATER DUDES!!!

29.5` with an inch of new snow bob. Currently dead calm and socked in. With a lot of calm days last week the bush appears to have been putting the snow on the ground instead of dropping more trees. Snowmaking shut down overnight Saturday which was odd as the summit temps yesterday were around 19`.
Sounds like Killington is typical WROD fall fun, I hope to get down there soon.

How about a December 6th Maggot get together at Killlington? We can hope for warmer temps than last year.

bumping this idea...

[ex-powderbroker]

Adding K to my calendar, see you guys there.

Tentatively interested. Might be the first weekend I can use my Jay pass though.

Might be able to make the 6th work. Would be a fun start to the season.

Already planned to be at K the 6th. Driving up early Thurs. morning (4th). Plan is K Thurs., Stowe Fri. (ski club appreciation day, $44) & K Sat. I'll be with a couple of other guys but it would be nice to meet some of you.

I would go to K on the 6th, but I want to know what Rog is doing first. I'd hate to hear that it was better somewhere else afterwards, which it will be.

Myself & the Pinheaded one will be @ K Sunday 11/30.

Kmart was rugged this weekend, sharp edges are crucial, like really sharp.
really slick ice>loose duff piles>kids who rip w/o poles>telemarkers.
apparently they didn't get the memo, it's thriving there.
nice sunny lift rides yesterday, cold and greybird today.
the first day out, 11 day's ago, hero snow, endless grip, turn wherever and whenever.
this weekend was a wakeup call, keeping my feet under me, was a wicked bitch.
the vibe is awesome, lotta stoke at that hill these day's.

edit:alligator mouths are segues, tGD

yea kmart was good yesterday but not the hero conditions of my first day either. top-to-bottom kept the crowds spread out.
nice snow on the left-most 2 ft.of east fall and some other trails but by
mid-late afternoon my edges were no longer enough.
bumps on mousetrap were massive but wet-snow dense and unforgiving.
legs were fully cooked so quit at 3:00. amazing how much snow they've already laid down though.


might be around dec 6.

[lynchdogger]

Yes Kmart on December 6th. This year I'll bring alpine gear and stay out of the park.

I think Rog is working that day. If that's the case then working will be way better than skiing at K. WORKING FOR THE MIDWEEK, yo

I think you've exceeded your quota of injuries for quite some time.

[ex-powderbroker]

ptt for the commuters.

[Vt-Freeheel]

I like that ^^^^^ wore the album out and the CD has been driven. The new rotary in Waterbury is flowing [in non commuter traffic times for me] like a river.

Killy Mini is shaping up to be awesome, has been a fun time for years.
