Curious to see how this storm pans out for VT. Forecast keeps trending better.
Sbush could use it!
I saw a bunch of kids jump off of the rock on the CastleRock hike yesterday.
Seemed like a dumb idea but they were having fun.

Are they going to keep the deviled eggs?

Such a great little store to grab stuff on the way to and from the hill.
Hopefully it stays that way.
Little grocer and deli!

Back to the Maine bc. Not nearly the 3’ Vt likes, but we take what we can get. Phone only came out for one run and not the best photos to choose from. Surprised to be skiing uncut snow every run at this popular area. Between Wednesday and Saturday I learned my way around. Sure it’s a hoot when the snow is deep.

skied wall to wall in the laurentians yesterday on good skis and only glanced a single rock. the temperature swing is a classic east coast tease. it doesn’t look like we are getting the bounce back snow so i’m doubtful local skiing or even xc will exist.

BUT the snow totals north and east look obscene. could be a nice escape if anyone has time and wants to put some miles on.

Kinda stoked to get my legs back under me this season, turns out I’ll be a freeride team coach this year! On the fence a bit about working for the mtn again but it’s a pretty sweet gig ripping around with the little shredders and skipping the lines. Most of the skiers are friends’ kids anyways so it should be a hoot

I’m glad you are on board this year [emoji123]. IMO this is the best way to “work” on the mountain!

Before you know it, your little ripper will be in the program as well.

That outfit has such subdued colors, I wouldn’t have recognized you w/out the yellow helmet.

Couple good days of skiing leading up to the rain, then today, during the rain.

Watching the Jay area hoping the optimistic forecasts turn out.

In other news, there have been two skier caught avalanches up on Mount Washington the past few days. One in Airplane that sounds pretty gnarly and one in the bowl.

Okay, okay. I get it!

Bright colors in the BC in case it hits the fan, muted colors (except that sale helmet) in case I'm ducking ropes.

Yeah, tapatalk app likes that post I guess.

I never thought of muted colora for ducking ropes. Very devious.

^ nah, you want to wear a red jacket and black pants when ducking ropes so you look like every other tourist on the hill.

Rained all night here at the Base o Magic. Started snowing at 7am. Temps marginal at 32.5

Hoping the folks further north saw a bit more of the white stuff.

Dropping into Airplane Gully in early December is pretty bold. Hope he recovers.
