    Jay Peak March 21

    Thanks for the responses guys. Late March, just like late December can be real hit or miss. Last year was a big miss, this year made up for it and then some. The kind of ski adventure I daydream about in the summer...

    Jay Peak March 21

    I have been fortunate enough for the past few years to join the same group of guys skiing at Jay Peak in late March. What a difference a year makes. Last year we enjoyed eighteen bulletproof trails with snow so hard it could loosen the fillings in your teeth. This year the pendulum swung back...

    I thought about bringing the tele gear, but just didn't think I was up to it. Scott would have had to take me out on a toboggan for the last half of the Sherburne...

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Baij_c6jaaM April 18, 2010 Tuckerman Ravine New snow, but a bit scratchy at the top of Right Gulley I was keeping a close eye on the weather and avalanche reports for Mt Washington before heading up for a couple reasons. Each of my half dozen past experiences...

    Berkshire East Glades 1-3-2010

    Thanks for the kind words Jeff. Good luck to your son racing. The Berkshire East race program turns out some really fast skiers! I'll be easy enough to spot with the camera on my head.. :snow:

    Berkshire East Glades 1-3-2010

    Unfortunately all of it was closed. However the BEast is a pretty laid back place. I skied that last section in the video (East Glades) just after lunch and it was completely skied off. Don't take this as an invitation to ski closed trails, but if it's a powder day and you're skiing smart...

    Berkshire East Glades 1-3-2010

    January 3, 2010 Berkshire East Groomed hard snow with about 4" of windblown fresh I arrived early Sunday morning at the BEast hoping to find more snow than was there. The storm that brought well over a foot of snow to the east, west, north and south of us seemed to split apart over the central...

    Tuckerman Ravine 4-26-2009

    Sunday April 26, 2009 Tuckerman Ravine Wet Corn, overcast skies, fog and a bit of drizzle I got hooked on Tuckerman Ravine the first time I went 6 years ago. There is something magical about this place, and it really drew me in. Until this year, I've been incredibly lucky by Mount...

    You bet! I'm sure glad we decided we didn't have to wait for someone else in the group to get married to do it again! :beer:

    Jay Peak weekend

    Jay is such a cool place. My only regret for the long weekend we spent there was I believed the weather forecast I saw right before I left Massachusetts Thursday afternoon. They had about a 30% chance of snow flurries Saturday night, so I left my wide skis at home! Never underestimate the...

    Jay Peak weekend

    A couple years ago one of my skiing buddies got married. Someone had the great idea of having his bachelor party at one of the New England ski areas, and thus the "Bachelor Party Weekend" was born. This year is the third year of what has become an annual event, whether someone in the group is...

    Berkshire East 3-2-2009

    Berkshire East, March 2, 2009 3 to 4 inches of light new snow on top of groomed frozen granular The major snowstorm that left over a foot in places close to the coast struck Berkshire East with only a glancing blow. Still, what we got was great skiing Monday, with just enough snow to float...

    Berkshire East - 02/22/09 - Powder!

    Any day where there's enough snow cover is the right day to patrol in the woods! There's a lot of great little spots that open up only a few days a year at the BEast, yesterday was one of those days... BTW, here's a link to Thursday's clip on Vimeo: http://www.vimeo.com/3302830 I'll post a...

    Berkshire East - 02/22/09 - Powder!

    Yep, what a great day. :grin: Every trail on the hill open again. Great bumps on Grizzly, Liftline and Jug, soft sweetness in the woods everywhere. Hard to beat it.. Thanks for linking the video BeastPatroller, you beat me to it!
