Ski was different and tough yesterday. A breakable crust which didn't hold you up and dropped the skis under and into almost knee-high powder. So mostly straight shots and turn out tele. Took about three times longer to get to the top of a small knob and the same on the down. Good workout. Should ha...

About halfway there for Maple syrup. 29 gallons and very tasty darker than usual. Snow has been sliding off the roof for a bit so snow is piling up. Hope to get a quick shot up on Tele Knob and then back to boiling. TM

78-60-70 the older model 109. My newer model with blown out Super Rottafella binding is what you wrote. Still my go to ski is the e99. 65-55-60. Love the 99, older model 109 is ok but needs to be longer. The newer 109 is a waste of money. TM

Doh! Used some old wood putty on my newer 109's. Put red on and felt the feel of sliding with decent grip over hardpack. Twenty yards in my right ski flew forward and my ski boot once again had a three-pin binding attached to nothing. Bummer! lots of snow and visuals were beautiful. So that ended my...

Boys headed out to Telecamp deep in the forest on a ridge. Hard, hard pack. light rebounds kept being deflected and bopped around. Got to dead Moose Pond and with ice cracking didn't cross to the big thick ice as I went through it last year. turned around and felt good just being out there. Will hit...

Prints seem to be that of a wolf. So saw a wolf and a big one at that. Be more careful when skiing around. Keep skiing and feel the feel. TM

Hard pack with a tiny bit of corn forming on top. 16 inches to two feet plus in most places. By now it will be easy corn skiing on the Southeast side. Bright out there. yesterday driving down to a spot on the property saw a large canine, grey and BIG. paid no attention to me and maneuvered through n...

Waxed up a pair this year with no straps. Decent turning boots and they really spark up my light gear. TM

Bardini....It's a NORDIC turn. Dig it! Skinnies slicing powder is the most awesome FEELING. Double camber doubles the feeling as in having shock absorbers. Anyway you cut it, Telemark is great. TM

It's about a mile and a half out to camp. Door had blown off so there was a 7-foot drift spilling into the Ledge camp. Far side had started buckling from the roof load, but the stove soon had the rest of the place heated and melting. Snow outside is very deep around 5 feet pf base. Everybody had a g...
