Now that ski season has started more than a week early, its a conflict with hunting season - how much of a gaper am I if I ski in Blaze orange and realtree camo?

(Yes, I have done this - a REALLY good day is hunting all morning and skiing all evening.)

Just when the deer think they have humans figured out, they go and do something whacko like that ;) You can call yourself a biathelete ski and shoot, ski and shoot., ski and shoot :) .

Excellent start to the season in the buttcrack of Western NY.

They expect another foot to 2 feet by Sunday afternoon. Here in Rochester its been dismal, a few inches at most. Drive 5 miles away and they have a foot, drive another 10 miles and they have green grass, drive another 5 miles and there's 6inches.... etc, etc, etc. Now that ski season has started more than a week early, its a conflict with hunting season - how much of a gaper am I if I ski in Blaze orange and realtree camo?

I think my brother went skiing opening day at Holiday. I just shoveled about 3 inches of fairly heavy lake effect snow out of the driveway at my parents' house, and it's still coming down pretty good. My dad shoveled a foot of snow at my grandmother's house about 15 minutes from HV this morning.

I skied today on some serious hard pack. Started snowing about an hour before it was time to quit. Now we're getting some good stuff. I'll be out snowplowing in about an hour, and will probably be on it for a while under these conditions :)
I'll send it your way!
