Ride Delaware ? Posted June 1, 2015 Report Posted June 1, 2015 I had packed away all my gear for the summer after my last day at Sugarbush on May 3rd, so I wasn't expecting anymore days on the snow. However, a week or so later, a friend of mine was hosting a housewarming in north Jersey, so I figured that my three day weekend would be best served by heading up on Saturday after Spending Friday night at the party. Come to find out, he said it was a weekend long party, but nobody else was coming until Saturday. I helped them clean up, drank some brews, and left about 1 PM on Saturday. I stopped by Killington about 6 to see how it looked, and after seeing it was t2b, I decided to head down the next morning. I arrived at the Bush at 7, grabbed a hero from Mutha Stuffers, then relaxed for the night. I woke up a bit late since it dipped down to the upper 30s and I knew it would need some time to soften. The mountain opened at 8, and I used one of my 2 remaining Ski 3 vouchers to get on the hill. Some guy that parked beside me was giving out free vouchers from ones he bought pre season. They were having the Killington stage race, so there were more people than expected, and the umbrella bars were hopping. It was a chilly start to the day, but they were top 2 bottom and they had groomers strategically placed to fill in the thin spots at night. It warmed up to about 80 by noon, and after a sunny morning shredding beautiful corn bumps, I took a Gatorade break after run 10. After a rest, I went back for some more runs. I decided to do 5 more, and it was much busier after lunch. Basically became an anthill. The snow bridge from the top bump section to bottom bump section was getting thin, but overall it was great and no walking was even remotely required. At about 2, after 15 runs, I called it quits and headed back to the condo. The bottom lot was packed with bike crews, but there weren't many detours. Not bad for my latest day ever for lift served riding. 8 Quote
