[Greg]

Hey Pat - got a new drop for ya at Nassahegan. The Widowmaker:

I haven't stumbled upon that one yet. I think I'll be skipping it when I do... :lol:

If/when I find it, I vow not to show him. I really don't want to be there for the carnage.

Brian, do you think this stuff is by the stuff we rode on stone that second time we rode the area. Thinking it was in the area towards the beginning of our ride.

 

[2knees]

i'll never say no without seeing it in person but that looks a bit hairy for me.

family, work, skiing... too many good things in life to try that madness.

Widowmaker is gone.

Agreed. But it's all relative.

There are things that I'm willing to try now that I never thought I would 5 months ago. Nevertheless, at some point common sense has to kick in...

Widowmaker is gone.

For the well being of our mogul skiing brethren, that's probably a good thing.

Looks like that area, but those huge jumps definitely weren't there. Maybe because...

Widowmaker is gone.

Was in the Stone road area?

Yup, that's the place we're thinking of, it's right off of Stone rd. Not very far from the entrance to the kitchen.

The approach is pretty steep, and the 'landing' is real steep, washed out sand. It's very similar to that steep shot on the blue trail (it's right next to it), but longer and wider. When I last rode there I was by myself and didn't ride down the upper part (there's a bypass), mostly because I didn't know the condition of those ramps. I did ride down the lower part, which was quite a rush.
