Northeast Trees and Pow

Well we had a killer ride tonight and I asked my friend, Ski220, what skiing Raymond's Cataract was like and he said to watch this video he made of the trip.

Rad. Inspiring stuff. So many routes, so little time.

the truth be told

Crank's video is a great representation of the year. But he forgot to give Big Jay credit too.

As for Mt. Washington, I belive the date was April 21,2007, we skinned up from Pinkam Notch via the Shurbourne trail thru Tuckerman Ravine, booted up right gully after eating lunch at the ... lunch rocks, then proceeded to skin to within about 150' of the summit complex. We skied down via Raymond's Cateract, when we came out to the hiking trial we put our skins back on and went back up to Hermit lake shelter as we wanted to ski down the Shurbourne trail back to our car at the Notch. An extremely long day, but one of the most satisfying. A top 10 for sure.

If you would like to see more footage from this years ski season, go to - Youtube and search ski220. The best ones are "Powder Ron" and "Stay High, Stay Dry".
