Kmart just announced they will be open on Friday for pass holders and Sat for public... mmmmmm bring on the WROD.
Apologies in advance for interrupting with news of ... skiing, but rumor has it that turns were made at Killington today.
Friday is opening day, though for holders of season passes and express cards only.
Saturday for the public.
Sunday operational plans unknown.
Monday for sure will be for skinners!

Present a 2012-13 or 2013-14 season pass or lift ticket from any other mountain and receive 20% off the 1-day ticket rate. This offer is valid through December 15, 2013.
All the above is why there is another thread for the EC.
Come on board my friends. See you in a month or two.
a bit more entertaining than paying, standing around, riding pad, and playing dodge ball, all for 600 vert, no?:)Quote:

At 1800' I am in the warm middle, kinda like living in between a pair of DD's, also only reached 79.6` for a high this summer. No depressing morning fog either, you should get out of the valley.Quote:

ML has mentioned that Gore is a great hill for skiing and look forward to getting there this winter. There is never unreasonable climbing [climbing that doesn't kill you makes you stronger, use the force], how about some surprize post holing?Quote:

Anyone heading to Killington this weekend passing though Troy on Rt 7 who wants a SCREAMING deal on ski equipment, let me know. I'm trying to re-configure the quiver into a smaller footprint now that I'll be flying to ski so most of my shits got to go. I'm in FL now but I've got well used Dukes, Dynafits, Zzero4's(non carbons) a bunch of well loved skis that would make perfect rock boards or Ullrfest sacrifices. Anyway come help me clean out my basement!!!
39 with a pass from another mountain, this year or last. There's also a two fer.

Anytime you are going between Bennington and Troy, keep in mind that the Big Moose Deli in Hoosic has awesome pulled pork. Unless you like sweet, get the original. They will pack the roll separately for travel if you aren't going to eat it right away. I personally like to put the slaw on it too, YMMV. Do not expect to eat it while driving; it's way too big and messy to handle on the road. I'm guessing it's close to 1 lb. total weight for ~ $8.Quote:

28 degrees and a 1/2 inch of snow here in the middle of the NEK this morning Bill.
Definitely interested in some pre-loved skis and possibly something else. PM Sent :fm:Quote:

shit, a 150 inch season could still produce an epic winter/spring season up high if temps stay cold and the winds are honkin.

There appears to be a slight dusting on the top of the Boltron today. Can't really tell for sure since I'm looking out the window in Burlington
for the Plattekill workday folks, in terms of the TIME of the workday people can start to gather any time between 8-9am and they will run the lift for a while starting at 9. see my orig post on ECRC7 page 1 and/or follow this link
I want to come check out your gear pile. Check your PMs and let me know when I can see what you got.Quote:

Who is coming to Kmart tomorrow? I'll probably be solo. Dark blue arcteryx jacket, gray variant brim, black I/Os, just like everyone else. Oh, and on a snowboard.
Killington opens at 1:30pm today, Thursday 10/24/13.

I'm going batshit crazy looking at this squall right now, no work is getting done today.
They're also offering a free burger or chicken sandwich plus beverage to pass holders Fri. in the K-1 lodge. Doesn't include express pass holders. Express pass holders who purchased before Oct. 17 ski free but that's the freebie that came with the card. Express card holders who purchased after the 17th will be charged $25.Quote:
