  1. I'm in, variety is the spice of life, sadly I doubt you'll find many takers.
  2. PA your problem is mtn laurel and for that you really need a dr power mower, they don't get high scores in the stealth dept. As for VT, glade cutting is more a locals thing requiring detailed knowledge to preserve stealthy entrances with few exceptions I've found they do an excellent job.
  3. Reading farmers market all the way our pretzels are vastly superior
  4. No terrible time too much snow, groomers will suck and you won't be able to get steezy on some rails
  5. I highly doubt it, I'm booked solid for like 2 months....plus if I'm going to drive to VT might as well save the effort for a good storm
  6. That's my line but you can use it Fenwick represent.............dude I'm so jelly I don't give a fuck if it was 3" of ground up packing peanuts your sliding
  7. pixel sweet phone dows
  8. Sickbird ! Way to go after it hard
  9. Vermont has tight trees and cheese weirdos though, additionally unless you ball out you can't just decide to go to say UT on thursday night. VT is all about storm chasing and sleeping in your car.
  10. Hotlanta's aquarium is unbelievable.
  11. Ascutney was all about the cabin and dark side of the moon trees, the later had two 10/15ft's with super spaced old growth trees. Shit was tits mcgee.
  12. Blue Marsh sucked and the people that ran it are such shit heads they killed two mountains, the other being Ascutney which had epic tree skiing. Laurel highlands was pretty cool for a smaller hill, gss will be happy to know I'm pretty sure they have or will throw something high speed up. The key to that area and Blue Knob is generally it snows alot, they can do 200" semi-regularly which is pretty dope for PA. The knob is covered with logging and snowmobile roads which are excellent with a little base, I don't remember such things at laurel but I only remember being their once.
  13. If you piece it out and want to get rid of patches/books let me know....some cool ass shit in there
  14. I like rude is better than boring
  15. This Ski2live, that is the way I see such things, I don't even agree with everything that I post let alone everybody else but the ban hammer is reserved for truly foul behaviour. We are all big boys here. That said sometimes the ban hammer is deployed here because sallys want to flex nuts.
  16. First of all you can't ban somebody that has a statue at the fishing pond. That's just common sense. Second that's so fucking lame, this website is the same 20 people almost all of which ride at blue together. So what's the deal ?
  17. Nuclear is also by any metric the cleanest and safest form of energy. Its not even close and that's old nuke gen II shit were not talking IFR's and sub critical with fast neutron particle accelerators. Wind or solar power is not powering base loads that's NG, coal and nuclear, variable output production would be peak demand only. Regardless one can be for alternative energy and go skiing, I understand the point your making but one can like wind power for purely economic reasons that have nothing to do with saving the planet or whatever. Wind for example will be assuming increased generation as cheap if not cheaper than many conventional fuels, the EROEI and such is just factors better as your not expending nearly as much energy to produce a Megawatt aka the fuel comes to you. Additionally one can be pro environment and pro economics, the idea that these things are in opposition is pure lunacy, everything everyone has ever or will ever do is entirely and completely dependent on a incredibly specific relationship with nature. The single biggest threat to everything including our economic system is climate change and not because it's going to get too hot, 50million people live in Bangladesh, at best 1/3 are underwater within a decade or two. That's one country potentially sending 15million refugees to who the fuck knows were. That creates conflict, that disrupts an economic system that demands predictability, that introduces an entirely new level of resource competition in an area of the world that already has a metric fuckton of people. it's real bad shit for humans which includes economics and being fifthly rich. Ski areas use alot of juice relative to other things but even if snow was never blown again on planet earth it would have no effect on anything, it's pissing in the ocean. The drivers of energy use is the stuff everyone does all the time, your not using terrawatts blowing snow.
  18. The blob is back, the blob is a patch of warm water of the coast of ak. The blob was around two years ago while it makes ak warm and dry it drives cold air from Canada into our region hence why the two years previous to last season were so consistently cold. This doesn't guarantee jack shit but it's certainly promising
  19. Somebody kept yelling it last year, I want to say it was GSSucks but honestly can't remember, it's the first thing that pops in my head now anytime I see someone hand flexing.
  20. Is that a Case 580 Super N ? Thing is fucking sweet, has SCR and optional ROPS/FOPS certified protective cab with rear wipers and floor mat ! Excellent float in deep pow and certainly unflappable at speed, just a smidge heavy for me at 17k pounds...... EDIT: Hand flexing is bullshit !!!!
  21. My daughter is 22/23 on catching them first ball, I suck I wasted like 30 balls on a zubat.....
  22. Be level 5 and then go to a gym.
  23. Why do you seem to think this is a good thing ?
  24. Same problem its just expressed differently because of axial tilt
  25. Bingo Saddleback could have opened they chose not to. Jay will be open too much money around to throw it away on bullshit. NEK gov't entities will pony up the necessary backing on 4mil worth of loans if necessary. Outside of VR and shit the mts that work are those in which the P&L's are rounding errors in a much much larger enterprise, think Aspen resorts. Ski Co is owned by the Crowns who are JPMC and General Dynamics a couple mil loss or profit is essentially irrelevant to their situation. If your hill isn't going to be owned by one of the mega conglomerates and isn't a one off cash cow type dealio your only future is to be owned by one of those types.
