Caught a cat ride up on Sunday night, whatever that last storm was. April 15thish. Snowing SO HARD to cat almost got stuck on Perry Merril! prolly 25 inches down at 8 pm. The three of us piled into out shelter and proceeded to drink rockarts and wait. We were expecting a change over but figured we would take the gamble. At 12:30 am it had not changed over. Prolly 30 inches down. Monday was going to be the best day of an allready fantastic late winter. We passed out with thought of deep freshies flowing thru our brains. Awoke the next morning to rain. Actually it was pouring. Worst boiler plate I've ever seen. So bad I walked down the first coupla hundred vert, then it was just wet snow. So wet in fact, that there were rivulettes ov water flowing down on top of the pow. Perry Merril had all these little runnels of water flowing down it. Almost waterskiing. The week that followed was the best week of WW Kayaking I've ever had.

If that storm had been all snow our snow totals would have approached 00, 01 totals. So close.

It was either Whitetail or Jericho at Jiminy Peak with Greg. If I was solo that day I wouldn't have tried either trail. I'm glad I did.

It was Jericho, I think. Or was it Whitetail? In either case, I seem to recall you getting down both with good form and without incident. You progressed a lot last season.

Nice long run for the last of the year.

Indeed. Catwalk is a really great trail. I just wish it was longer.

Mid-March at Chamonix (Les Grands Montets) from the mid-mountain lodge after a few too many with some people we met while there. Good times. And, thanks to :beer:, I didn't feel sore for that last run!

My last run was 4/6/07 at MRG. I think the run(s) was Cat Bowl>>Linx>>Beaver. AWESOME way to end my season, even if it was a bit earlier than I would have liked...

In my mind, northern New England
May 12 at Tuckerman with andyzee, vee, madpadraic and roark from lower chute, down the snowfields and just about to the top of the rock trail heaing down. The next day, I did a summer tune, turned down the bindings and slapped on a thick layer of wax on the skis. Wax will be coming off on October 1.

Last lift serviced day was on May 6 at Killington. I don't think I'll be seeing K for a long time.

Vee just got done putting together a compilation DVD from this season and she stated how much you improved from when we first met you until the end of the season. When she metioned that, I just realized we only met you at Burke in February. Funny, feel like I've known you for years.

When is that DVD going to be released to the general public?
