http://web.mac.com/oncloud9/iWeb/VT%20Ski/Welcome.html April 6-12, 2008 Great trip with Valdez Heli-Camps and Skiclinics.com (we were a separate group inside the VHC with Dan Egan as our coach). We hit very good conditions, lots of new snow, and flew 4 of 6 days. The nice thing about VHC is...

I know that guy does the 3d ski maps (needs to add Stowe). http://3dskimaps.com/ And in Europe....they do this: http://www.mountmaps.com/ Like the idea of both. I love ski maps.

Please feel free to submit your favorite POWDER pic from this season. How about one per customer ? Let us know where and when. I like this one of yours truly Easter Weekend, Sugarbush, skiing "Somewhere Trees".

http://www.sugarbush.com/ Lifts are spinning RIGHT NOW at Sugarbush !

Let's do this thing ! Let's have a giant, free for all, no holds barred smackdown on which mountain range is the bestest of the best, and why. How about weighing in on the ski areas themselves, the snow, the scenery, and the backcountry. Pros and cons. Maybe we should include an analysis...

Been thinking about the usefulness of most ski area snow reports. What would core skiers (that's you guys/gals) find to be most useful in terms of understanding the true "snowiness" of an area ? What popped into my head was: Base totals. Summit totals. Mid-mountain totals. Single snow...

Been wondering if someone would come up with something like this.... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000CEV6XO/ref=pd_po_rvi_1/104-2400462-6651968?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance&n=130 And here it is. Only thing missing is a Bonus Suzy Chapstick poster....

....this month on BreadLoaf Wilderness (VT, east of Middlebury, West of Green Mountain Crest) backcountry. Guy has been skiing this stuff for 15 years and says he's never, ever bumped into another skier. The area is huge, and it gets the "snow goods" very nicely.... Not sure I've heard about...

http://www.specialtyoutdoors.com/ The woman who runs this, Penny, was great to work with on my North Face FreeThinker shell. I bought it, and realized after doing so that it is an unbelievable shell.....with one glaring design flaw. The hood does not detach or self hide in a zipped...

....wondered what folks thought about resorts selling "premium" day passes (and perhaps a season's pass surcharge isn't far behind) where you get an hour of lift use before the general lift opening that day. Fresh tracks....for a price. Read recently about some area offering this (can't...

http://forums.alpinezone.com/modules.php?set_albumName=Cradle-of-US-Skiing&op=modload&name=gallery&file=index&include=view_album.php ....Woodstock, VT, 1934. Was driving by on Saturday and detoured to see the marker. Here's a couple of pics. It's a nifty place.....beautiful. The afternoon...

I'm bored...and thought this up. Yup, not much mental horsepower at work at the moment. So, what's your favorite view from a trail here in the East ? We're not talking trail difficulty, aesthetics, or the ski experience, but the visual aesthetics....mother nature in all her natural...

Been waiting (and wondering) when someone would put forth information regarding skiing "new" skis that didn't just tweak "traditional turn teaching to fit it to shaped skis", but instead built a new approach from the ground up. Seems that book is here. Read through it twice now (great photos...

Stumbled on this TGR thread started September 20th. Some great action shots of eastern skiing.... http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/showthread.php?t=35510

Anyone with direct experience or feedback on these boards ? I've read reviews, heard some good things, and would appreciate any additional data as I try to compile everything on this board. Think it would fit a niche nicely in my board line-up.

Got to wondering if there is anywhere where true, verifiable snowfall totals for the some New England resorts, say for the past 20 years, are posted. I'd be curious about the true season totals, but almost more curious about, say: 1) Number of 10+ inch storm days, and the months (or dates)...

Just picked Couloir (2006 buyer's Guide) and it's a feast for the eyes. The other mags ski equip. reviews have one or two telemark or AT pieces tossed in for good measure. This thing has just tons in every category....including almost 100 ski reviews. Some companies I've never even heard...

So, folks.....has anyone ever proposed an AlpineZone backcountry get together somewhere ? It seems in addition to threads about individual ski areas, that perhaps an AZ backcountry thread to provide information about potential hookups and get togethers for AZers might work...

http://www.lifechallenges.org/create/WrightJ.html You know, I've been thinking a bit lately (usually a bad idea). About the gap between my ski "dreams" and my ski "reality". Every year (and they click by pretty fast these days) I have this idea in my mind of what I'll do to ski better...

Anyone know of any aerial photo firms who have Winter shots of the Valley - Lincoln, Slide Brook, Ellen, MRG ? I'd like to get some of those for both decorative and study purposes.
