East Coast Roll Call 6.0 Get Your Stoke On!

[therudeness]

I'll make it 4 in a row with some random from-the-car shots from the lac this summer




if any of you go postal and head to QC searching for snow, this site will be handy, switch it to "neige au sol" to see what's on the ground. pretty pathetic south of the st-larry

Enjoying some early runs at Smuggs.

[kingdom-tele]

i would totally be down for K, but it's mom's 65th in ontario. just thankful any snow is coming after since it makes the perfect excuse to "beat the storm" back to QC..

KT: I was doing the bike-camping thing, so I don't really know anywhere good to stay. The micro-brew bar in St-Filicien is rad though. http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/17233 What are you doing up there?

thanks man, no worries, we'll just wing it. Plan is to load up the mini van with skis and kokanees, cross the border before a huge snow storm rolls in, battle the QC drivers on I-20, ski du sud, massif, valinouet then proabbly get kicked out of a few bars in the old city.

I ski to slow ML to be a part of the K-ton thing.

Anyone comes up this way over the winter though, I enjoy making skin tracks, the dog is trained to not shit in them, and don't mind dishing out first tracks to people.

[lemmycaution]

VTF/ML/whoever, i will not be at the mini, though i am sure it will be a good time, regardless of the color of the ground, have fun all. might be in the cats for the weekend though. also- if anyone has any montreal tips, they would be appreciated- i heard about some portuguese chicken place that sounded pretty righteous.

Hoping to get back to that hill past the big house and few small cabins sometime this winter.... And maybe some other stuff in the area, it's intrigued me greatly. Wanted to get back up there last winter, but we all know how that went.

Not sure about the mini yet, might be skiin with the family this wkend.

[BigDaddy]

Lynchy and all, sending my regrets. The noose just got tighter... wife called all excited... something about a "big surprise" Sunday afternoon. This better not be a visit w/ Santa! (But if she's going be his little helper, then that's another story.)

What's that Zepplin song?... Swinging from the Gallows Pole

good plan, border rendezvous sounds good, never had enoug snow last year to fill in the ledges right, .

we'll be shooting potato guns and hopefully jumping the snow machines in Caledonia County for NYE. I will be at Owl's Cranium for some Tues powder days too, we'll figure it out.

[FussyDutchman]

Do Work/Lynchy - I have a K 2fer that I can send either of you if you want it. It has my name on it so I don't know how militant they are about checking ID but it's worth a try I guess. Shoot me a pm with your addy and I will send it.

[angry swede]

No Mini for me. Committed to a weekend with the lady on her side of 87. May investigate the WROD at Greek peak, anyone know how friendly they are to skinning?

[mtnbiker/boarder]

TC check you PM's...got your and thanks for the heads up.........

[crabrang00n]

Just started snowing in BTV. Starting to stick the ground, hopefully the snow showers fill in around the mountains too.

Hoping the system coming thru on Sun/Mon actually drops some accumulating snowfall! Yew!!!

[talus]

Talus! No wonder I like you. Two fucked up individuals! You headed this way soon? Climbing? Send a pm if you are. I have been on ice three times so far. Conditions still not great! Need snow. How was the summer? Look forward to catching up! We got to get together for a few George tours this year!

Not sure what I'm doing New Years but may go touring up in the ADK's. No ice for me yet still want 1 more rock day. Spent a lot time in Southern dacks and getting on new climbs this summer went by too fast! how was your summer? Had a little set back during hurricane sandy no power for 12 days and had 9, 60 foot pine trees come down, 5 were in the driveway. Got a good workout with the chainsaw though.

What's going this weekend at killington? Is there snow on the way and lift ticket deals? I hope we can hook up and get rowdy soon! cheers bro

if they open i might make it over there with the kiddos.

I've got two Killington 2fers that will not be used by this weekend. Can get them in the mail today if anyone wants them.

[steamboat1]

Won't be able to get to K for the weekend, I'd be nice to meet some of you. Probably be there sometime during the week, especially if we get snow. I think this link still works if anyone needs 2 fers.

massif de sud is a tree skiers's dream

QFT. That place is unbelievable. They've even banned snowblades.



Anyone have more info on Valinouet? Been wanting to push a bit further up the north side of the seaway next time I head up, and that might be the way to go.

[treewell-dweller]

Updating my excuse for missing K to: not having a job so i only have $ to ski my Smuggs pass.

So if anyone knows of any work available, copywriting or other, keep me in mind. Thanks and have fun at Kmart.
