20K nordic of bluebird here in Acadia with the Mrs... smooth like Dire Straits ‘78, which is now cranking and fueling my endorphin bliss.
Acadia is so damn beautiful. It has to be unreal peaceful out there this time of the year.
One of those days today it’s just killing me not being out on the hill.
What a day it must have been.
Sweeet shot Joey !

that looks so sick SC, hope to make it there someday.
Ascutney: Skinners and splitters, tubers and pizza-ers, rad-sters and racers, paragliders and old-timers around the fire.
That place is the absolute bee's knees. What a gorgeous f'n day out there.
The skiing at Trapps was sublime.

I surely don’t want this day to end, but I’m looking forward to watching the sunset over the ADKs.

A summit hiker was reported missing to USFS personnel at 11pm last night when they failed to return from a summit hike via Boott Spur or one of the Lion Head Trails. Mount Washington Volunteer Ski Patrollers found him in Tuckerman Ravine below Right Gully at approximately 3 am. The subject of the search had taken a long sliding fall down Right Gully after taking a wrong turn off the Lion Head Trail. The climber had plenty of hiking and snow climbing experience but inexplicably chose to leave his crampons and ice axe behind. The microspikes he wore on his mountaineering boots did not provide adequate traction during his descent. He sustained non-life threatening injuries during the fall. A team of 6 Mountain Rescue Service and four Androscoggin Valley SAR personnel assisted AMC and USFS staff in delivering the patient to Pinkham Notch, arriving at 5:30am.
On the other hand it was a beautiful day to spend in the forest. Couldn't complain about the weather or the skiing and a lack of other skiers around was bliss.

With fat enough skis the crust isn’t really a factor in Northern VT right now. A few clips from today’s tour.

Lack of crust interaction was good.
Good times at Mt. Blow
