TR: Fall From Low to High (Middlebury College Snow Bowl & Mt. Mansfield)

[gpetrics]

Date(s) Skied: 10/15,16,17

Resort or Ski Area: Middlebury College Snow Bowl and Mount Mansfield

Conditions: SNOW in OCTOBER! (do I really need to be more specific? )

Trip Report:
We spent three days chasing the result of the monster Nor'easter of October 2010 in Vermont. The details of the storm, the schuss and the scenery are all contained over on a lengthy TR I just wrote up on FIS. I hope you enjoy and don't mind clicking over.

Thanks, as always, for the TR!!!! Loved the photos. (personal favorite was either the shot of the village with Mansfield in the background or the second to last photo on page 3 of your report)

good work!

On a seperate note I climbed Eisenhower (I'm still in climbing mode) yesterday and can confirm that there was not that deep of snow although it was blistery and icy as hell up there.

was this you on T4T?

I saw that, and it looked like a lot of fun. So cool to travel on the uphill "time machine"

edit/PS: and thanks!

No not me. I took my dog up the Crawford Path all the way over. He is an old beast and this is one of the few routes he can get up high as it's long (very) and gradual.

Keep the reports coming, they are so $$$$
