Why does your home/favorate mountain rock?

[riverc0il]

Actually posts pictures from Jay and Cannon. I could search your website for the best but that would require effort, so no.

so you want me to make all the effort for your amusement? :lol: forget it, "punk." everyone knows where my pics of my favorite mountains are. the link is in the sig if you don't. besides, i generally prefer not to deep source pics into topics that get a lot of repeat hits for band width reasons. besides, images alone can not show why my favorite mountains are so great. i have taken some decent shots, but they never have done the terrain or the skiing real justice.

Why I think Whiteface rocks

One of the best things about Whiteface is the vertical. The smaller mountain to the left of Whiteface is Little Whiteface. To put things into perspective “Little” Whiteface skis 2,500+ ft. of vert.

Iceface is old news. Whiteface has an extensive snowmaking system. It covers 98% of the mountain minus the Slides and glades.

The crowds are killer.:wink:

We have steeps

and Trees

First rate parks

FIS competition approved pipe

The Slides are fun too.

Wildcat looks like it has great liftlines.
Burke's trees look great.
I've never skied either, but hope to some day.

I love both Sugarbush and Hunter. I like the pix of Crossover at Hunter, really fun bump run.

HPD this picture is awesome. What trail is it from?

Also, nice pics DMC and Lostone. Finally this thread got going, about time. There still has to be more though...

This picture is also awesome:

It's called Essex, it's a black off the summit of Little Whiteface.

Loon is my home mountain. I don't have many pics since I didn't get my camera until after the ski season.

Entrance - It was a foggy day, but on a good day you can see the summit from here

View from Lower Speakeasy - No one on the trail at 10 AM on a Saturday (Who ever said Loon was always crowded?)

View of the lines from the Gondi (Alright, it was a little more crowded this time, but it was February vacation week)

View of the lower east basin from the Mountain Club hotel

I think that the next time I go to the River, I'm going with you, Ga2Ski! :beer:

 

[ga2ski]

Sure I'll give you a regular's tour. We have to wait for some good snow cover to ski most of those areas. I didn't get to very many of last season.

I wish either were a home mountain, but as far as my favorites, it's a tie between the two "sugars", Sugarbush and Sugarloaf. I'll start with the Bush:

And da Loaf:

Ah heck....the little local home mountain, Ski Sundown is cool too:
