Post your Top 10 favorite trails / runs / trees in the Northeast..

[Puck it]

Any glade and any glade not on the map. I think that covers it!!!!

 

[2knees]

1. Cannon Cliff
2. Lions Head
3. The Duchess
4. Any of the stuff people ice climb up in Franconia
5. My secret stashes with mandatory 50 foot drops into chutes

My list is pretty much triple blacks. If you don't need trad-climbing gear to get up it, it's not even worth looking at to ski. I consider "epic" to just be one of those words that can't even begin to describe the kind of stuff I do. I just made up my own word, but I can't tell you, because it's also the password to my secret clubhouse that has the swedish bikini team ready to massage your feet after a day of triple backflips to glare ice or whatever usual stuff I'm doing. Also, if I don't have at least like 5 internet enemies within a week of posting in a forum, I just consider it a bunch of people who suck up to my sheer awesomeness and just try and want to get access to the secret unmarked stashes that I have. I think that this whole thread was made to find out where people's unmarked stashes are. Not cool brah, we're internet enemies now.

I'm just having a little fun, no need for anybody's panties to get in a knot

bro brah...

i laughed. good work.

Hmm in no particular order:

Paradise @ MRG (This really is number 1 actually, I have never encountered a cooler trail)
Woods between Paradise and Fall Line, and on the far left of Paradise at MRG
20th Hole area @ MRG
The riverbed left of Ferret at MRG
Woods between upper antelope and Catamount Bowl at MRG (GORGEOUS)
Upper Cannon, so perfect
Taft Slalom->Hardscrabbles at Cannon (a Gem!)
Kinsman at Cannon
Rosebrook Glades at Bretton (Lame? But they have beautiful little launches and are serene)
Avenger at Attitash (Gotta have a cruiser on here)
Zoomer/Zoomer lift line at Cannon
Go Green/Global Warming at Cannon

Want to ski:
Cannon secret stuff - I can see a ton of this from the road, but never seem to be in an exploring mode when I get up there to find the entrance..Especially the one that goes skiiers right of Kinsman, I bet that is insane. Also the clearly visible lines to skiiers left of Hardscrabble, one of which a ski patroller told me was named "Obvious Glade" lol. Looks AWESOME there.
Definitely want to check out Jay Face chutes some time.

Damn, 8 more months of no skiing

That is an urban legend. It does not exist. It is called "obvious glade" in the way that O linemen are nicknamed "Tiny". ;-)

hahaha ok!

i still want to ski it!

I wish I could refine it down to ten favorites but thats asking alot...

I really love glade riding ....

Here is my favorite spot. Home.. Labrador Mountain outer glade section(you would have to hike back a mile to the resort once you hit the road) its loaded with powder and lots of mother natures obstacles...

Jay peak is my favorite when it comes to glades. My favorite is unmarked and not on any trail map...

But im always up for the face chutes.

and the offshoot of the tuckermans chute

Out west there is nothing like "powder country at Powder Mountain Utah..You kinda need to know what your doing out here..

When I go into the bc my favoite is Berthoud Pass, CO

Its certainly a hike but well worth the trek.

Well there is six of em lol....

 

[dovoian]

pretty rad snowman - in that tuckermans chute picture - what the hell is that, are you airborne or can you actually throw turns down that thing? Looks pretty insane

 

[Mpdsnowman]

Well honestly I would like to think there are alot of members on here who have been thru this thing and I would take it a step further and say it is...lol or should be on their top ten because it is a challenge and extremely unique..

It is very steep (for the east coast) and I have always told people riding or skiing thru these types of terrain is like driving a monster jam truck. Short bursting speeds because your going to come into blind curves and then need the ability to get out of one quick.

But it is all about knowing the terrain and the conditions that apply...That of course is said about anywhere. Once you learn the terrain and with the proper conditions, skies or boards you can kill it...but again you gotta know the area... Lol, those chutes take time to learn it. Do I rip it?? hell yea on the right day, do I get burried in crashes?? hell yea on the right day...do I get lost lol....all the time...

But in the end just brush off the powder and its all good..

Cool stuff! Reminds me of some of the off map stuff at MRG toward the top of the mountain. Definitely have to check out Jay Peak next season.
