I have a Stratton voucher that it doesn't look like I'm going to be able to use before the big melt-down. PM if you want it!

Gotta voucher to use up. Anyone going to be skiing Friday?

Finally got up to Magic on Friday after two unsuccessful tries the week before. It was crusty in the morning, but softened-up in the afternoon sun. Met up with Tim and Travis and had a great time skiing trails that I never skied before. Magician was sick! They got lots-O-snow!! Conditions were...

Ok, I have another ski tuning related question. If you have a new set bindings, and they're set-up for your boot sole length, and set to the correct DIN level for you, would you need to pay for a release check?

The events of the last few days and recent posts got me to thinking (always a dangerous thing). What's your post/reply verses just read ratio?

Just back from the Rangeley area where we did a short hike with killer views. There's a description of the hike here http://www.amateur-hikers.com/mountain.asp?id=10378 . We started up the backside trail in light rain which got progressively worse on Saturday, and did the entire 2 1/2 mile...

I was driving the other day, and passed a field of clover that smelled heavenly. It reminded me of when I was a little kid and use to catch bumble bees in a glass jar in the summer time in Florida. What smells take you back to your childhood?

Some great footage here!! 1778399

Well after eight screws and a 6 inch SS plate, my colar bone is back together again and I'm already using my arm. I had the surgery on Thursday afternoon, and came home yesterday. Hope to be skiing by March at the latest. :-P

Got this in an email today: THE JOB - URINE TEST Like a lot of folks in this state, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to get that paycheck, I am required to pass a random urine test with which I have no...

Did Tumbledown Pond on Saturday 10/18. We got a late start from too much fun on Friday night, and didn't get hiking until 12:15. What a great day! 45-50 degrees, no wind, bright and sunny. We parked at the Brook trail parking lot and walked up the road to the Loop trail parking lot, where the...

I'm trying to buy a new Mtn bike for my son, and am not sure on the sizing. What is the relationship between frame size, which I believe everyone on here is talking about, and tire size, which I think most generic bikes are sized at? I can't decide between a 20" or a 24" bike. Took my son out...

I want to do some hiking in the Rangely area of Maine the first part of October. Can someone tell me the best hiking in that area? Any above tree line peaks or interesting trail features like falls, bridges, etc... Looking for an interesting day hike, 5-10 miles with views, peak-bagging, etc...

Why, or why don't, people like skiing the woods or trees? Personally, I can't get enough of them, but when asked why, I have a hard time putting it into words. Nothing like skiing in the woods on a sunny day with the sun shining through the trees! You?

I could do this all day! http://vimeo.com/1268520

I'm looking for someone who has the manual that came with these bindings, or who knows how to adjust the bindings for different sized boots.

Date(s) Skied: 12/21 Resort or Ski Area: Okemo Conditions: Like Mid-Feburary Trip Report: Great first day out. Never got above mid twenties. Sun eventually came out around 1:30. Fresh 4-5 inches of powder on the sides of the trails all day. Slow day, no lift lines, not many people out. Lots...

Anyone know of any tentative closing dates yet? I'm trying to plan some spring trips with remaining vouchers.

Does anyone know where the new backcountry course through the woods designed by Olympic Medallist Bill Koch is, or how to get to it? Nothing on Stratton's trail maps or web site tells of it's location, only that it exists.
