The double was where it was at anyway. I got one run over there and then had to go back to deal with the snowboarder that was down on Plunge

Eastcoast Roll Call TwoTwo/TwoThree A Slow Start to a Big Finish
Snow dried out a lot overnight. Dropped a car in the Vale lot at Killington and started at Pico. Pico had a corporate takeover yesterday, you can rent the hill on Tuesday and Wednesday for $6,500. I heard it was about a hundred people, so there was plenty left on the sides and trees, especially over on the Outpost side. Finished at Killington, ate lunch at the new lodge which was excellent. Jug and Handle nice packed pow, skiers left on Lower Oviation was spicy fun. Glad winter showed up for awhile.
Heading to see DSO in Rutland tonight!

I don’t know the model name but somebody left one that looks like these at the bottom of the double. It had some duct tape wrapped around it just below the grip, probably ended up in lost & found. Originally Posted by buckethead

^^ thanks, i got excited for a moment but you likely saw my pole...i'd brought it over to show the lift operator what the lost pole looked like. i expect i'll be hiking around there after the woods melt down a bit...damn thing got swallowed whole!

Never mind me. Just reliving today.
And yes, backseat but when hucking a HUNDRED FOOT CLIFF, that’s how I roll

FKNA! Nothing better than Platty trees on a mega deep day like that. I remember riding Protests through the woods there back in 2010 when there were similar feet of fresh,.one of my fav EC powder days! Originally Posted by buckethead

Yeah, Tramline is my favorite lift service run in the East. It's not open often due to Cannon's lack of snow and the size of the sharks. A halfway decent base and the density of yesterday's snow made it really nice. When skiers left is on, it's an especially beautiful ride. Originally Posted by danmelon

Amen. And I recognize the other spots. Originally Posted by jackstraw

Looking great at Platte[where I need to ski sometime] and that Cannon tramline looks like a lot of fun. Boreas, thanks for pointing out the low gate, as an Official Backcountry Gatekeeper™ I need to get that raised.
Good to see you out in the snow butta, I was worried you had quit alpine, hope you enjoyed Dark Star
Fun was had yesterday. Decided on HG 2nd chair and out skated 1st to N Lynx to grab the front row seats.
I knew the 2 day untracked would be bliss.
Was perfect for a few more.
After a mechanical took the lift out after 5 runs we wandered to Castlerock for 5 hours of the wheel hitting lines I hadn't skied in years.
Even got a few rays of sun!
I had sent Jedi Noah a couple of pics of Tuesdays action and he said "See you later, I'm coming up to ski!"

So cool seeing everyone getting after it. Skiing is fun.
Guy got lucky on a day the universe was telling him to do something else.

How are the elan 96s- still treating you right? I've fallen in love with mine so hard and are contemplating the 106s for my next purchase. Originally Posted by buttahflake
