Stowe stoke thread... 2025!!

[saltyant]

Hey all, back from a perder session at Stowe, the true mountain. In da house was me, some brahs, and Telejim. We arrived in da house at 900 under cloudy skys and some perder flakes. First run down Chin Clip was mad steezy. They remembered to groom Clin Clip today so there werent any of those @moe ghouls on it. That was sick. Then Gondalier was rad. And also Cliff Trail. Then I meandered to Four Quadrunner and skied back to the gondoobie where I met my brahs. My goggles kept fogging up so I got triggered and had to go in the lodge to find a heat source. Took a break in the Spruce Lodge and while sipping a hot cocoa with little marshmallows, received bad news that @TeleJim hurt his knee badly on Perry Merrill so he's out of commish for the rest of the season. Next skied some more and soon going to Piecasso after going to pick Telejim up from the hospital. Overall a rad day except that Telejim got injured. JADIP WTGAI Ice is Nice

Great report and sad about Tele Jim. You should check out Picasso I remember you went there before and had pizza and seafood. Also mussels and ice cream Sunday at the top of the gondoobie. Keep the reports coming up stuck at work another day before I can join the PASRs at Blue Saturday

Or Middlebury Snow Bowl. Refurbished Baily Falls lift opened today.

Was there last Saturday and the front side was great.

I saw wind holds at jay peak on upper mountain lifts.  Hopefully everything is OK at Stowe for Salty and his bras

We decided to bail on today due to a variety of reasons, which include Jim being injured, the wind holds (including transfer gondola), $30 paid parking, and a long drive after skiing. If Telejim was uninjured and there were no wind holds, we would have skied and rode.

Finally, a long awaited pic from this trip:

Yeah Jay was on wind hold a lot last week, which is why I opted for Bolton instead

Here's my first pic from Stowe. Me hating on winter. Seriously, this snow, cold and ice is bullshit this year. I can't wait til I'm on a tropical cruise in August. Maybe I'll even invite Matt Edge.

If he’s allowed to leave the state/country lol

I actually only took 4 other pictures while skiing. This is probably the least amount of pictures Ive ever taken on a ski trip. I prefer to live in the moment instead, like Kumbaya and shiet. Plus all ski pics tend to look the same after awhile.
