    Andy Zee: Tribute Thread

    Attended the viewing tonight. Nice turnout of family and friends. Kzone was represented by Dork, myself, G-smashed and D, Junior and J, SheCanSki and FirstScrape. Saw their friend Milagros there too. I made a book made up of a printout of the RIP AndyZee thread on KillingtonZone and the...

    Andy Zee: Tribute Thread

    I met Andy and Violetta years ago and skied with them a few times too. We also enjoyed being at happy hours, BBQs and parties together. He was very enthusiastic about skiing and the great outdoors in general. He loved sharing his pictures with all of us. He will be missed. RIP Andy.

    Do any of you know where Abenaki is?

    Eastern Freestyle just posted the 2013-2014 schedule and for the Eastern B Region it lists a competition on Jan 24 at Abenaki. I do see that it's only for aerials. I've never heard of this ski area so that's why I am asking the question.

    Prayers needed for a fellow skier

    Many of you may not know AndyZee but he is need of prayers as he is battling Stage 4 pancreatic cancer. I think Andy is a member of this forum and I am sure he has skied with some of you in the past. Please keep him in your prayers.

    So nice; no lines anywhere @ K-ton 2/3/2013

    I skied at Killington Saturday too but I had a different experience than the original poster. I am a regular at Killington so I know my way around the mountains. I skied Outer Limits many many times under the guns and Bear Claw/lower Skyburst. I don't mind skiing under the guns so I was...

    Any Injuries from skiing or boarding this past season

    I took a bad fall in the upper Superstar woods at Killington on April 9 and dislocated my right shoulder. MRI showed that I had almost fully torn my rotator cuff and that I had nerve damage. I still cannot use my right ring finger and pinky since I just have tingling sensation in them. This...

    I like Killington...

    I felt the need to post a reply to this very important thread. I love my home mountain of Killington because of the varied terrain, the good friends and the night life that is available.

    Hunter Chair Lift Accident - Bobby in critical condition

    I just read this thread. Sorry to hear about Bobby and hope he is on his way to recovery. Sad that the mountain does not mention it since he is one of the employees. Prayers and vibes go out to him and family.

    Attn: Long Island skiers/rider....

    Many more than you I'm sure since you're a fair weather skier. I know for a fact that I skied 65 days this year and 70 last year and the years past were all around 50. I have only been keeping track for a few years so no total for me.

    How was the skiing at your mountain yesterday?

    I was at Killington and they had predicted much cooler temperatures and raining in the afternoon. Well that did not happen and it was warmer than predicted and I had to shed two layers at lunch because I was too hot (I had dressed for the predicted temperatures). The sky was mostly blue with a...

    Is October skiing a Big Deal?

    If I did not have kids' obligations (football and cheerleading) and I could have gotten to Sunday River, I would have loved to ski whatever they were offering. I am addicted to skiing so a small fix will do at this time of the year. It's hard to stay home and read about others that are...

    Would you get bored with 365-day skiing?

    Since I am obsessed with skiing I don't think I would get bored if I had 365 days of it. However, I do love spring, summer and fall too with all those seasons have to offer so I don't mind if my skiing season starts in October and ends in June.
