Well done, AB. Thanks for bringing the stoke this season.

Agreed! Ayo, Boreas and Cat consistently brought it all season with Peruvian closing on the outside.

**Vt-Freeheel** · 05-29-2018, 06:26 AM

A strong showing this season !

**robrox** · 05-29-2018, 09:16 AM

Indeed, nice work AB.

2018 Mount Washington BBQ and Slackfest:

Saturday was showery. The snowfields were wide and started a bit higher up than last year and went just as far down. Got the 10th Mountain Memorial Day Slalom set up, took only a couple of runs, grilled a hotdog and escaped to the valley to dry my gear.

Sunday was still misty and almost breezy, but offered almost three hours of sun midday. Estimates varied between 324 feet of vert to 410 feet of vert, but whichever, it was enough for very pleasant yoyos in the corn. Old friends, new friends and assorted canines populated the Northeast Snowfield. Managed five runs, the beer and the veggie franks made for a pleasant lunch.

Monday, Rider.Steve drove up into a dense cloud. We schlepped our gear down to the snow (it was an epic journey of 150 meters walking from rock to rock in the Alpine Zone). Our view of the summit cloud indicated that a bit of patience, while waiting for the sun to work on it, would reward us with both perfect conditions and excellent weather. Quite naturally, our patience took the form of drams of 12y/o Irish malt and fine cigars.

As the cloud dissipated, other slackers arrived in droves. Families with 10 kids between them, solos, couples and bro-groups. During my first run I saw the slalom course was affected by overnight melting. A bit of relocation put the final 6 gates well away from the rock sharks.

The kids were all racers and enjoyed making the groove on course. It was a pleasant spectacle. Their help in collecting the slalom poles was magnificent, a fine ending to a great ski season.

Still a few patches left.

Nice Rob!

Not much of a little refresh this May.

Guy in gray is a buddy from VT. Liam's last day of the season was the day after Easter.

Sailing and skiing the same day is on my bucket list. I'll be racing on Lake Champlain this summer.

WTF? I’ve been a remote worker for out of state companies for almost 20 years. How about a little something, you know, for the effort?

You’ll get nothing and like it!

But you already knew that.

**alev** · 06-01-2018, 06:35 AM

Anyone have an application?

**Goniff** · 06-02-2018, 06:40 PM

**retirwntm** · 06-03-2018, 08:14 AM

Does Otto usually delay in the event of snow, and for how long? I’m assuming they would consider any slickness on the road a serious safety concern. Asking hypothetically, of course

**ex-powderbroker** · 06-04-2018, 06:21 AM

some dudes brought a sailboat to chapel pond, looked pretty cool! mosquitos like i’ve never seen in the dacks right now, no black flies though.

26 degrees and freezing rain, I wouldn't want to be up there in a car.
