I didn't say I didn't believe it.

I know of Mr S's aerobic reputation.

It makes me tired just thinking about it.

This is the man who organizes an entire rando race series, and wins every race.

Hit up TLine today... Lots of fun, snow is beautiful! I'm in the lot now, waiting for Jonathan S to complete his obscene number of laps for today.

In case you didn't know PNWBrit ,Jonathan. S. RUNS up Mount Washington every year and organizes the rando race series so that amount of vert is no surprise to me.

Wish he had time to do an avy beacon review website too. That'd useful.

Also it is nice to have his first born - Dromond here as a PNWer.

There is going to be a mogul field all over the mountain once he's done. I remember skiing Airplane on MTW a day or two after Rog and him skied it. I couldn't believe they were moguls.

edit: Oh yeah, no one found that white bag with my googles inside that would have fallen out on my last short last run in WV yesterday?

Borderguard was a bit surprised when I crossed at lunch and curious about skiing in West Virginia. Much easier crossing than crossing into the US Monday night.

In the car headed back now. Three days of epic Bc skiing far away from the problems at my doorstep in NYC. Thanks west virginny and mags for help and an awesome time.

Video above is from mattchuck2. Glad he made it back home and edited that up so quickly.

Power was back as of last night but not all Davis. BFS was still out so advisable to take a couple gerry cans with gas along. Convenience store in Bismark, at the top, had power today.

Holy Bajeebus, that was awesome. It was every bit as good as a regular winter storm skiing, and even then better than most!

All night driveathon, no-sleep hot laps in some awesome trees and open trails, moonshine, electricity and heat-free amenities, 3-pin nutjobs getting crazy, more hot laps for more bottomless pow, hotel evacuations, so many good laughs, great suffrage and awesome crew up there.

So happy that we made the drive! Could not possibly be more stoked on such an obscure road trip. What an awesome place that little valley is, such good terrain and people!

My deepest powder condolences to those who didn't go. Seriously. +++vibes+++

Looks super fun. I was trying to make a road trip work coming up from central NC, but too much bullshit at work to deal with yesterday, today, and this weekend.
Those of you who sucked on winter's teat this week, well done.

Well done gentlemen well done! Love the video! I have never been to Canaan Valley, but having just moved to Columbus, Ohio I plan to storm chase there every chance I can this season. I was not able able to participate this week due to recovering from a stress fracture. Nevertheless, I'm glad you guys had a smashing time down there and its good to year you enjoyed the terrain. I am hoping that this dense snow will stick around for the season to provide a nice base, but it is early November in the Mid-Atlantic.

How many 40-50 degree days can this high-moisture content snow handle before it is just a fading memory? I'm sure the ground is still pretty warm in addition to it warming up.
