As the designated "human drag anchor" of the group I was happy not to repeat one of the mistakes of my last tour with Jonathan, never use an untested sock for a long tour...

I was just going to say; it seemed like JS was slipping. Less than 125K vert? Getting old...Quote:

Way to go, Jonathan. Rockin' out!
Page 200!
Went out this afternoon only to discover my bindings were broke. Forgot how much fun it is to launch off moguls and land in the next trough.

This is for you Train, hope you're well.
Heading to Cannon with madpatski, catch us if you can. Enjoy the sun!
Peel away!

Deck burgers can eat a dick. PB and J low budget baller sandwiches FTW . When I get on a computer I'll chuck up some pics of the nicely harvested cornnnnnQuote:

These people apparently own the whole trail.

Over heard a lady telling the group of people she was with at HoJos that Hillman's highway was the gulf of slides and tux was Huntingtons. I can't even imagine what wold happen if someone in that party was injured and used a cell the call for help only to send the help to the wrong place.
Done

Closing weekend was pretty rad. Made the best of an early morning window for soft laps on Saturday before it started to pour pretty hard at 1pm. Coverage was still quite good. An abundant harvest of manky, golden corn.
It was fun to watch the various ranges, and systems swirling above them. (iPhone shot does it poor justice). Eventually we got nailed. But man! Riding was fun while it lasted. The ominous clouds resulted in literally zero lineup.

Sun was blasting on Sunday, so i had to go back to the hill. I did not want to miss people's many awesome spring outfits.

Things got so warm n soft n wet... Especially the bumps. You get the idea. Spring riding at its finest. :)
More next weeekend? Tic toc indeed.

It started with a plan to hook up with a good crew at Barnes Field Campgound. Forgotten sleeping bags (totally my fault) had my wife and me checked in at the Royalty in Gorham for Saturday Night.
Saturday was a GOS day for me and a Wildcat day for my better half.

Had to take this, "Climbers and the Mist"

What a great long weekend, skied Adams and lapped Jefferson Ravine. TR to come once I get photos from my buddies.
Skiing is awesome!
Wow, 2 full pages of Vashikarans today.
41.9` cloudy and rainy bob, 1 1/2 - 2 1/2" of rain forecast east of the CT river.
Bromont looks good Melonman, we were over at Sutton Sunday which was awesome. Also used the broken bindings all day which was a blast in the soft bomps. Days like that end way too quickly. At least they kept the chair open til 4:30
Nice classic stogie shot there robrox! Danmelon, would have liked to close out Bromont but I'll hike leftovers soon enough... rudeness, good thing you guys did Sutton, was surely so nice. A great sunny day before this mess Wx.
NIce one rudeness! Keeping an eye on Sutton as they may be open this again this coming weekend... but with all this downpour n mixed precip its hard to say...
V. Nice photos robrox, :) making me want to take a rip out that way before summer. I have a buddy shucking oysters for a living in Portland ME that I've been meaning to visit.
Indeed! Should still be a good for a while :)Quote:
