Burke is amazing.

Yes. Was leaving at that point. You should have introduced yourself.

let me tell ya. whoa ! what an epic condition it was. sat was just jaw dropping. 2-3 feet of powder everywhere. sunday was a bit worse. the wind velocity picked up pretty bad and the gondi was off all day.

drove through the storm all night friday night. got to stowe at 4am after driving 12hours. we left stowe at 4:30pm on sunday and it snowed the entire time. most of the day on sunday, it was near blizzard condition. visibility was near zero many times. there were times when i couldn't see an inch infront of me in the glades. BUT, it was a blast.......

i thought 2 weeks ago at whiteface was epic. this redefines my definition of what an epic condition is....

my best season so far.....what a trip...

Did I talk to you on nosedive? The trip story sounds eerily similar to a guy I spoke to. He may have been from Philly, though.

Yeah, I was thinking about. Wasn't sure if it was you though until you already passed. I did not feel like yelling something like "yo trailboss" and getting a very awkward stare.

Anyway, are you going to be there this sunday? Burke is now my favorite mountain that is day trip-able from Boston. I really wish I didn't have to work saturday so I could go to the pond skimming.

I was skiing with Kingslug that day, you would have met two. The glades to the skiers left of nosedive were nice. Especially at the top. A bit too thin-spaced towards the middle for my taste.

i agree. very tight. it was a lot of fun though.....
