I traveled to Killington for the opening convert in their "Cooler in the Mountain" concert series. I hiked to Killington peak in the morning, and headed over to the Umbrella bar around 2:45 to get some beer and food before the Long Trail sponsored event started. I wanted to take my meal back...

Hi Nick, Would it be possible to suppress the "Deal of the Day" posts from the New Posts listings? Instead of a link to an image, how about just showing the image? You Tube/Vimeo is the opposite. I can't see those at all, so there a link would be helpful. Is there a way to attach an image...

SRO's thread on new ski technology got me thinking about ski technology that used to be cutting edge, but has seen it's time come and go. I can't think of any specific examples, but I this might be a fun thread idea.

So I got a new grill, and decided to spend my long weekend getting to know it better. On the menu for this thread are: Brined Grilled Pork Tenderloin Sausage Smoke-off Beer Can Chicken ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brined...

Is anyone on here a member of The Clymb (www.theclymb.com)? How are the deals on there? Can anyone throw me an invite? Thanks Root

I'm looking to get ms root a beginner snowboard setup, but I'm a little out of my depth here. She's taken exactly 1 lesson and loved it. The game plan is to get her some gear that she can use to progress on (and take more lessons). We're not big fans of daily rentals. She wants to spend...

I'm thinking about picking up some cross-country skis for next winter. There's some pretty good trails in the local woods near my home, that I know get some (but not much) use. What do I need to know? I'm guessing that any outerwear I use for alpine would be acceptable for cross-country but...

Date(s) Skied: Feb 6 2011 Resort or Ski Area: Elk Mountain Conditions: Firm and fast. Softened up in the afternoon. Trip Report: At a street fair in October, I had entered my name in a contest for a free ski trip with the Watchung Area Ski Club. Well I won, and I decided that I'd go with...

Does anyone have a Balaclava that they really love? I'm using the Seirus Combo Clava. It's just ok. It does keep my face warm, but retains a lot of breath moisture. It also stinks in there. I got to thinking that Seirus has basically been using the same design/fabrics since the late 80's...

Date(s): Jan 18, 2011 Resort or Ski Area: Stowe Conditions: Variable, in a good way Trip Report: Started the day off on Spruce Peak. Trails with snowmaking have great coverage, natural trails are just a little scratchy in spots, but enjoyable enough. After lunch, I decided to head over to...

I just picked up a Thule Ascent 1600 Cargo box. I'm not sure if this is too far forward or not? I could move it back some with out hitting the tailgate, but then I'd be covering the antenna and that can't be good for the Sirius reception. From the front, it looks ok, but from the side it...

We just found out that we're heading up to the Catskills for New Years. Got a really nice deal at the Bavarian Manor in Purling. I realize that discounted lift tickets aren't going to be all that great. Potter Bros looks like my best option. I am thinking about going to Hunter on Friday...
