    First Track East Coast

    Do these count?

    On Facebook today...


    "First tracks of the season have officially been made here in Vermont! Heavy frost this morning, 9/19, at Prospect Mountain Nordic Ski Center in Woodford afforded Steven Whitham his first chance to get out on skis. If you haven't gotten your gear tuned up for the season, now is the time!"

    Frost don’t count. Has to be actual flake form!

    It makes perfect sense...until you think about it.

    I suspect there's logic behind the madness, but I'm too dumb to see it.

    This girl in my high school tripped out thinking she might get pregnant after her bf came inside his jeans while dry humping her. That shit was hilarious..

    There is an old adage: "Anybody can go straight down the mountain. Real skiers make turns."
    My personal rule is 10 turns = a ski day. They can be amassed any way, but 10 turns total must be achieved.
    I don't see a single turn in that picture.

    So, it was either 4 people going in a straight line, never to return plus the lone survivor..... or, that dude did at least 4 kick turns. If the latter is true, than He/She/It is on the way to a solid half-day of skiing by your metric.



    bravo.
