Sledding injury

Were you the sled?

It was a good day yesterday. Today will be good as well. Tomorrow.... not so much.... the last forecast I saw did put a lot of the so Vt mtns in .75” of rain as opposed to 2” in Bennington. So I guess that’s a win..

Dude we shared a lift yesterday. Swapped broken leg stories.

Good times at Magic today surfing the grabby, sticky mank. Who knew you’d need a spring structure in December?

Dude, I was not serious at all. Tele mono is...well, if one digs it, good for them. The reverse tele turn every other is interesting.

I'll never forget a friend of ours tele skiing for the first time in Taos. He ripped on alpine, so he takes off making solid turns, but my friend and I were like something is not right. Took us a second and then we cracked up...he was making reverse turns! His uphill ski was leading and downhill trailing...but he was solid. It was hysterical.

you had me by keeping a straight face in your post.

got out to hunter yesterday with scottski. skiing in the rain typically better than the ice that rules until the next big dump.
above 34F at opening bell the groomers were fast and trustworthy. got better every run til it finally started raining after 1pm. 3 soaker runs and i was ready for a warm car.
glad i got out *before* these rains...it may be little while :0(

Merry Xmas guys, let’s get this party started right

[jackstraw]

All the snow is in the river at about 1k in the Whites. I hope Woodstock VT and surrounding areas don't flood.

This was around 8-10" Wednesday.

^ ...giveth...take the away.

hopes for a region-wide season-long snowpack again on hold.

[krp8128]

Hope Santa wrapped a new kayak for some people this year....

[biggins]

I've never seen a snowpack disappear so quickly. Ah well, on to mud season after an 8 day winter. Merry stinkin' Xmas all.

Warmer in Boston than LA or Tampa.
As usual New England is a snowless hellscape that doesnt deserve you fine folk

[Self Jupiter]

Haven’t been able to bring myself to go look at how much water must be in the basement here at my place in Boston

Yeah but snow in the city is a pain. Shovelling worry about parking my cars etc etc. Snowmaking, 5 month seasons, and longer runs w/decent vert is what we have. Not good snow/terrain.

Took out my new snowboard yesterday and turns were great. Man whatever I bought 6 years ago was a heap of trash fell anytime I picked up speed this thing crushed the blacks at Waterville hard without a single tumble.

Kinda have a feeling we're getting skunked hard for the rest of the year and have accepted it. One plank, avoid gnomes, couple overnight benders in NH. Glad I have this NH pass and zero will be spent at the window.

And there is this from Belleayre:


Dear Belleayre Friends and Family,

After a tremendous amount of rain and high winds, which has severely impacted our ability to operate in the current environment, The Christmas storm has dumped over 6.5 inches of rain on Belleayre.

This morning, supersaturated snow from the Yahoo trail let loose and slid into the Overlook Lodge. The lodge sustained significant damage, with windows and doors broken. No injuries have been reported.

The mountain will remain closed for the 26th of December as we are unable to provide a safe environment for our guests. The operations team is working diligently to manage the current situation and help the mountain recover quickly as we head into the rest of the holiday week.

Down here, there was torrential rain for about 12hrs. I haven’t looked at pictures yet, but I’m sure glad I live on a hill.

Anyways, it was 62 at 4am...now it’s 34 and it’s snowing. Wth is going on?
