Hey, you're skiing at Hunter today? And ignoring all my other attempts to find people? Now I'm at work :-( Hopefully some other time. Enjoy the snow!

I;m always at hunter... But my schedule's been tight - haven't done a real full day yet - today I'm riding until noon then I'm headed to a rehearsal for one of my bands playing tonight..

Ok, I forgive you. If you are always there, how does one manage to plan to meet up with you? Have a good rehearsal and happy new year!

It's snowing really hard right now - at least a couple new inches already here in Halcott near Belleayre!

And I am heading home to NJ in an hour... :-? Back on Sunday.......

 

[kingslug]

Hmmmm. Maybe Bell Sunday, Hunter Monday. Need to visit our place and repair squirrel attack damage.

Welcome to the new year...

It appears to be a bit snowier... Time to shake of the hangover and ride...

Guys, I haven't been snowboarding since before Christmas, the day before the killer rain. I wasn't uhhh... quite feeling good during the break, a little too much BP. I think I'm getting a car this weekend, so maybe I can actually make it up to Plattekill, but Belleayre for sure. Look at Belleayre's picture of the day today...

A bit nippy this morning. At 6:22am it was 7 degrees here in Woodstock, NY .

You kidding??? if not, it's one of the many reasons I don't go there.....

I am blessed with exquisite timing....

i don;t mind Windham too much. it;s a good place when they have got full coverage. not so good on saturdays and only half the trails open.

then again, i doubt anything south of mt snow was better than springlike this past saturday. amazing what a difference a few days make.

The pic of the day at Belleayre.com is looking very sweet. Even those woods look very skiable! I hope it is still awesome and warm on Sunday! I didn't know they were having a park jam on Sunday. Hopefully my boarder friend Mike D will rock his style!
