It took several plow trucks and finally one of the snowblower trucks with the machine on the front to get to him.
Think a patroller told me several years back they took off the top of his forehead. Always eyed it in the day, though it's a knee crunching flat landing to my admittedly feeble memory...Quote:

nuthr footy+
way down south has come to a screetching halt, but man. WV had a hell of a run these past several weeks!
Tline ripped fast corn all afternoon. Bootup shack social after. Hoppy Birfday Patrick BOAMAN!
This weekend is it for Tline and weekend after that for Canaan
Had sum really good days at both area and BC.
i'm still hoping for a 12 inch plus end of the season event -- I would love to skin and ski a deserted CV
Well a few fresh inches and an early closure of Silver Creek made for a little fun, and a rare feeling of peace at WV favorite interwest resort

Good stuff ;)
Sweet, CV had only 5" but on the abandon slopes its all good.
Unfortunately I missed out having to be somewhere else.
Anybody stay at the new Canaan Valley State Park Lodge? How is it?
I only stayed there once - before they finished construction.
I talked to a number of people who really liked it, they were couples or families I met riding lifts mostly but allspoke well of it and those who had stayed there before the upfit were really impressed. I always thought it was great when I used to go with my sons. I could give you more details it's just not the type place I stay anymore -- i.e. it costs > $30 and is cleaner than me. You should recommend it without hesitation though, like all the WV state park system it seems like a great value
Thanks for the info!Quote:

Have fun in all this snow, people. I'll be making turns in a super secret stash on the hills above the gunpowder river north of Baltimore. I'd take pics, but I am too lazy.
