Green Beret at Jay.

Kind of looks a lot like a rock on Rumble too, but the trail looks too wide for Rumble. I only skied Green Beret once, so you are the expert there, but I thought the rock on Green Beret was bigger and maybe more toward skier's left than that one.. You are probably right though.

skidmarks still has not confirmed so I could be wrong. You can't judge that rock by snow depth as it varies so much during the year. I have seen that sucker buried and the jump barely a hop but in early season it is simply mammoth. At first, I thought the rock too far on the wrong side of the trail as well, but I am chalking it up to angle of the camera. Not enough tree cover for Rumble. Could be some place I have never been but Green Beret was the only thing I could think of after a few minutes of thought.

Not Green Beret at Jay
Didn't feel 100% on that guess. I needed to refresh my memory.

Try this one

Really tough. Think hard. DMC or Steezy might get it.

Rumble is correct!!

Since Steve's guess was wrong, I'll formally guess Rumble, even though the trail looks too wide.

My picture was from the 1st Weekend in April this past year.
When was the other picture taken??

In an old ski magazine they talked about Rumble skiing like a fire escape sans hand rails. Or the path a crazed wild animal would take down the Mountain. Some day I'l ski it top to bottom like an Eagan.
It's always an adventure.
