Was supposed to meet 2knees and andyzee at kmart today...But didnt fall asleep till around 3 ended up waking up around 10 so a vt trip would have been lame.. anyways got to sundown around 12...was working on some drills on the groomers for a few runs...then headed over to temptor.. the bump lines were suprisingly pretty good with the best lines being the bottom ones past the kicker....The ex bumps were real sweet after the sun cooked them a bit...perfect for practicing pole plants....By 130 the bottom lines on temptor were pretty soft and I was able to open it up a bit...With the forcasted snow they should be excellent later in the week!!

that is all

Dude, good move, Killington really sucked today. I mean, it was cold, there were even less people than yesterday, some trails were nicely groomed, like the one to the left, but look at that mess on the right, all those damn seeded bumps, an to the left of the seeded ones, there was nothing but a manmade mess!:

Superstar sucked, no grooming hence no people:

Skylark, same crap, bunch of bumps, I mean it was so bad, no one wanted to ski it:

Yep, it was so bad, the freaking place was a ghost town today, you made a wise decision.:

That's OK, I enjoyed the day skiing with her. Her knee was still bugging her from the day before and it looked like she wasn't going to make it, then she saw me suiting up and :lol: Need to work her back into it. Was a really nice day, shame you couldn't make it.

So....in your opinion, is Killington's "soul" from the 80's and 90's back now?

i wanted to ski the morning by myself but all my kids wanted to do was ski so we took them over to ramshead to do the magic carpet. I wish i had your cell so i could've called you but i totally apologize for not making it.

managed a few runs while they ate lunch and then got away for good around 1:30 when they called it quits.

freakin COLD and empty. i'll post up a little tr later with a few pics of my own,

btw the course on conclusion isnt open to the public and looked like total crap. i skied the open part and it was pretty rough too.

No biggie, had a great time with my wife. To be honest, it didn't seem as cold on Monday as it did on Sunday. But, in either case, we couldn't complain.

Ice bumps on Conclusion is fairly typical. Amazing those kids can ski it as fast as they do.

Looks like all they need is a foot of snow or so. Should be good this weekend.
