Any ECRC Mags holding some cheap 75mm Tele bindings they want to get rid of? I just got some used boots(Garmont Energy) and have plenty of skis to mount, but need bindings. Axl or Hammerheads? Others I should be considering for lift served EC skiing?

Well you can't accuse our new snow reporter of publishing fake news, from today's report:
"Clouds will be decreasing throughout the day, possibly letting a few pockets of sun through, meanwhile the strong winds of the Northwest will bludgeon the mountain today with speeds between 20 to 40 MPH at the base and gusts up to 80 MPH on the summit."

Are you in the first pic? We saw that guy several times this morning.
Conditions were much better than expected and didn’t get skied off until after lunch.
Natural trails need 6-8” of dense to be skiable.
Doremite (flashing ahead) and non-mag RG enjoying the sun.
I’ll be back up some day this weekend but even with the extra terrain opening, with any crowd I’m afraid it will get scraped off quickly.

In one word, let me describe the skiing at Stratton today: Zamboni
Holy crap was it bad. They're blowing like crazy (and so is the wind) but Monday will be another reset. Seriously wondering if either day this weekend is going to be worth testing the crowds.
Views were not as nice as those from Smuggs (that trail gets my vote for most scenic in the northeast) but still nice

Heading east next weekend - have some free time Friday to ski solo. Options look like Killington or Sugarbush. Where should I head? Never skied in New England.

Vt-Freeheel can comment on conditions at the Bush but I know (from Goniff) that Killington has been very good (before the rain).

Maine has escaped the rain, had a warm up Thursday but nothing major. Could be a little far for pinned if in VT

I'll just have to hope it snows this coming week. Killington is the closest option, so that's nice too.
I'm on Ikon, so Sunday River looks to be the closest Maine option at almost 3hr each way. Worth the drive for a weekend trip later in the season?

anything later in the season will be good. for now maybe rewatch Slap Shot for some pointers on how to handle the current skiing / crowds.

Conditions bush also good before rain and Monday looks, meh. New stuff opened today but from what I saw, didn't brave the crowds, hiking for sunrise ^^^ would have been the best part of the day, the binocs revealed rink like surfaces filled with Bode wannabes. I think K would rebound better and have a lot more open right now. I'll let you know if conditions improve.

i just said “i’m sleeping in” to the downhill skating rink tomorrow. the nice thing is how fast stuff can change around here, but we need some real snow! how come they never give the thaw/rain part of these storms wrong?
i did get some good mods done on my zero g’s today done. i replaced the bullshit strap with a much beefier one and the garbage liners with pro wraps from cat in january.
does anyone know what the difference is between the pro wrap and pro tour?
l
anyway, i’m about to crampon up to go for a hike. ayyayyayj'ai des grands instants de lucididididididididi
