I wasn't trying to be snarky, but I am trying to singlehandedly irradicate improper reflexive pronoun usage. I usually ignore little mistakes, but like TP, this one kills me.

Here endeth the threadjack.

What a snark.


Sentence structure, paragraph structure and proper grammar are lost arts. Of course, I work with engineers all day and that skews my viewpoint a bit.

Okay. Now you gotta come clean. Where is it?

Seriously though, welcome Jellis! I've always strived to make this a place that folks feel comfortable posting, regardless of ability, terrain preference, or favorite place to ski/ride. I'm sure there are others like you that are/were intimidated to post a bit and that sucks. Any ideas on ways to help change that?

I'm going to guess Hunter. We really only beat up on Hunter because it's fun to poke at DMC sometimes. I mean, not only is he a snowboarder, but he does it at Hunter, is a drummer, adn is an occasional dirty telemarker. We still ove him, though.

it would be Tenney Mountain in Plymouth


I was staying up in campton a couple of weeks ago and went to the grocery store on 25 (i think it was rt 25). anway, there was a great view of tenney from that road, it looked pretty darn good to me. Especially since it was mid august and being up there is torture with all the ski areas around.

Ctenidae busted my( now and know) use recently as well. I think I remember a few years ago he was coming skiing with us and showed some big wuss excuse. Pay no attnetion to the man.:razz: Welcome Jellis . :beer:

Nothing a matter with Tenney my kids 1st season was there. The staff is wonderful at Tenney. I worked as an ambassdor at for them 7 years ago. The big issue is I bought the $100 pass when we were going to have the full use of the new snow making technology for 1000ft, It eneded up being 1 rail.:angry:

I totally forgot that was your stomping grounds. The house has been offered to us for use pretty much anytime as their kids are in college now and wont be skiing every weekend. I'm sure I'll be up this winter a few times. I'll give you a heads up and maybe we can make some turns at loon.

I'm a little late to this post, but here it goes. I'm mainly a hiker/misc forum poster and frequent lurker. Unfortunately my access to AZ from work has been restricted so it's hard for me to get to this site as often as I used to.
