Agreed! Hey nek, what do i win?
I always enjoy your pics, nek. You've got a knack for sure. I need to get up to Burke for one last ride.

Moar FALL!
This one is a closeup of the sunset reflecting off the windows of the tram and summit buildings of Cannon Mtn. It was actually hard to look directly at it. Almost like a laser pointer.

Aim for the chopping block. If you aim for the wood, you will have nothing. Aim past the wood, aim through the wood.</p>
Any mags recommend a good pumpkin spice beer that can be had near Burlington? Tried Long Trail's Pumpkin Ale and it's good but I'm looking for something with a stronger pumpkin flavor.
Great shots as usual NEK!
My .02, pumpkin does not belong in beer period, but I've never been a fan so one mans opinion etc., etc.

I tasted a Pumpkin beer once. Had four sips and left the rest....being a slow learner, I had to be sure
During a birdwatching day I was handed a can of gose beer for my lunch, carried it for hours and then, when it was lunchtime cracked it open and reviled the taste immediately, it was salty and sour...intentionally so it seems.
Fortunately I had some 10 yr old Malt in my pack and killed that awfull taste with it.
I'd rather drink turpen hydrate than gose beer!

The sad truth is that whine does not age well
Thanks for the recommendations all.
Anyone have any experience with easy access primitive camping in Willoughby State Forest. I'm headed to Kingdom Trails for Sunday with some friends and we have heard rumors of easy camping sites in the state forest. Anyone?

The Passion is in the Risk
Indeed, +1 on the thanks JS...it was on my list to send them an email today inquiring on the sale date, you saved me the effort.
Which reminds me, this might no longer be such a good deal, since I haven't looked into this since something like around 2007, but I recall lots of good deals from joining one of the CT ski clubs:
http://www.skiclub.com
Yes, CT & skiing, usually not such a good combination!
But the clubs have access to buying individual tickets in advance at group rates (though might be too late for that this season, sorry).
And most VT resorts have special rates on various days for club members:

I recall that at the time we decided the best deal was this club:
http://www.thegoodmenclub.com
... though organizationally some problems arose with mailing out cards and/or tickets (which might still be the case given all the Google malware warnings about their website).
