• Holiday Week Blues

  So far it's not looking like a great holiday weather week. Great Lakes runner this Fri/Sat and the chance for another post X-mas but maybe a New Years storm, a big one.

• Mtn loyalist/passholder vs independent/chase the snow week to week.. debate on!!!!

  100% mountain/pass loyalist here (no surprise at all to my AZ crew I'm sure!!) An "Ugly" weather/snow conditions day/few runs on the hill PLUS a fun afternoon plus a few beers with friends, often as I near 50, are a "better"/ more fufilling day than if I'd been out on the back deck grille all night supervision the building of…

• Killington 12/13/18

  Firm and fast conditions at Killington today. Cold too. I layered up in the morning and stayed that way even when temps crept up a little in the afternoon. The place was pretty deserted, so I had my run of the place. Lots of stuff is roped off, but there were plenty of open trails too. Looks like they are…
