Sounds like me. I carry 3 Kind bars with me and those little packets of cheese in my coat pocket. I nibble at them as I'm skiing. I have a very small bottle holder that straps around my waist that I use for hiking as well. Works very well. Saves $$$ too. I eat a big breakfast beforehand and...

That's true. They are all the same in my book. Assholes who deserve more than they get. :angry:

Yep..it's all about preference. And it's amazing how a bunch of people can be at the same place at the same time and come away with different viewpoints. ;)

Seems like every ski resort has a bra tree. My daughter and I got into quite a conversation about this at Blue the other day. "Who started doing this and why? Was it a frat/sorority house prank?" "So how do they pick which tree to use..Why THAT tree?" "Do they realize how expensive these bras...

Ugh..I agree..the fines aren't big enough. You kick a dog and get into more trouble! I see litter all over the place when I'm outdoors. Trash along rivers, roads. I kayak and camp along the Susquehanna, which is a beautiful river but down near Harrisburg the river is filled with trash and old...

I'm a lot like that with my car. All season I've been driving around with my snowshoes, hiking poles and a day trip backpack in the rear seat just in case I want to do some snowshoeing. Not to mention the usual tools (toolbox, jumper cables, battery charger, collapsible shovel) plus extra...

My daughter boots in the parking lot when she skis with her friends. She keeps all the gear in the car and boots up in the parking lot. She's a poor college student and doesn't want to spring for the locker. Often I find it to be a long walk from my car to the lodge and I find it easier to carry...

Unfortunately it's been raining on and off all night and day. Supposed to snow several inches tonight into tomorrow so Friday might not be a bad day to check out there. Supposed to be sunny and in the 30s on Saturday so it'll be a zoo at all the resorts. Unfortunately I have to work Friday and...

Here's an example of some disgusting behavior::sadwalk: I saw this right next to Pine Meadow Lake at Harriman Park. This is a popular destination because it's a fairly easy hike so a lot of day trippers come to picnic here and then decided that they just CAN'T take the trash out that they bring...

I bring extra gloves, socks and an extra ski mask, along with things like aspirin, lip balm, reading glasses in a backpack that's always packed and ready to go for when I take a trip. I like a change of clothes if I'm driving 2-3 hours home or going out to dinner afterwards. It all goes in the...

Unfortunately HERE at the beach we're supposed to get a foot of snow tomorrow. I'd love to ship it up north.

It's why I took up backpacking..because you get the same behavior at campgrounds. :thumbdown: I hate litterbugs. I can't understand why you would go out into the woods or up a mountain to enjoy a beautiful day being outdoors and then just trash it. I often munch on a snack while skiing/hiking...

We're getting more snow Thursday..some places up to a foot. If I didn't have to work Friday it would be tempting to go back. Definitely going to head up there hiking if I can't ski it again this season.

Must be all the snow..:snow: It has been snowing non stop since January! We're talking seriously awesome! It's raining down here tonight and tomorrow but still snowing up north. :thumbup:. And then it's supposed to snow again down here. Unfortunately my son is getting an operation next week...

:-D I feel for you..Sounds like you and I needed to change places last Friday! I like fast groomers. My first thought was to go to Hunter but I wanted to check out Belleayre and I got a nice deal on Liftopia so figured "what the heck?" I will say that it was much colder Friday then Saturday so...
