Not to perpetuate a tired old stereotype but you have amazing power of recall for someone fond of riding the Ganjala :lol:

Seriously, love the detail, right down to the mad (not steezy just plain mad as in :eek: insane yo) cafeteria prices. Stowe was one of my first-evers this season, a cold weekday in early December a few days after a dump, and I sure was glad for the thermos full of a great piping hot stew my wife had made the day before.

Haha...I remember everything..even how much a slurpee cost when I was in 3rd grade. It got me on the Scholastic Scrimmage team in high school but unfortunately there aren't any quiz show groupies..oh well..in my next life I'll be on the Football team..lol..

Stowe is my favorite place to ski in the east. I'm envious of the Boston people who are only 3 hours away..if I was only 3 hours from Stowe..I'd get a season pass there...but I'm 7 hours away..but no GrilledSteezeSandwich ski season is complete without a trip to Stowe. I feel lucky that Stowe was my home mountain for 4 years in college.

Wow some pics of Mt. Mansfield on a clear day. Glad you had a good trip. What's the last picture of? Anything of significance?

The last picture is of a little house..I posted about 60 pictures so far on paskiandride.com and I'll post some more on here later.

Is the picture in the middle of the first bank of 5 (simply a trail) a picture of Nose Dive? If not, do you recall what trail this is a picture of?

Man, you made the most of that place. I was bummed we left early and didn't really get all that I wanted. Have to go back next season when it's good.

That's the second..hard left turn on Nosedive..I wish I was there back in the way when there was 7 turns..as opposed to the 3 turns on Nosedive..

too bad you don't boat, it was going off while you were here.

Some of the locals at the Shed were totally in river Kayaking mode..going off waterfalls on a Kayak is too core for me but I'm not a very strong swimmer..my Dad has a sea Kayak which is fun..
