Re: Sbounds...leathers

Can when I travel! South-west-east When it gets warm will head over to Stowe and get a few on Nosedive or if Sunrise has some decent patches see what is. Boys will want a lot but me just some decent long speedy arcs. Feel the Double camber giving me an easy fast ride. Will see if I can get of Teleki...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Last ski if you could call it that up in the Highlands. Two turns and the end. Made my May ski and will wait to see if we get some warm, really warm weather then will hit Stowe and do some patch skiing. Good year and I hope all of you out there had a good one as well. TM

Re: Sbounds...leathers

So true. Teleking and I built a "seventh wonder of the Kingdom" chimney on an outcrop looking over a Pond with few if any people around. Used to do exactly what you describe. Thinking we will have to head back up there soon. TM

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Telekid and Teleking led the way, and we packed the skis on our packs and up we went. About a mile in found a decent crashed tree and began the process of getting a fire going. Rest of the time we hung around and a little skiing where the Sun couldn't but slowly get to that snow. Great day with Sun ...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

I have been fortunate to see many parts of our world. Alps Rockies Big mountains in China, just lucky! The most beautiful and rewarding is out in this tiny world of Fishball hills around here. Seen a lot but this is where I want to be. Lucky! TM

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Most snow on West and South side is gone but around ponds and Wetlands tons. Teleking and I were skiing around in the wet zones that had tons of snow when a bald eagle checked us out. Flew to a scrawny tree just above us and the tree bent when it landed. Took a look at us and then burst into the air...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Snow up in the Highlands was good and the skiing decent. Full coverage and rounded with snow that made the skis turn without much force. Great to be out there. Roads are mud and my jeep is a wreck with no back window and a gas leak. Bummer but as long as the snow stays not much use in getting the ju...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Low expectations this morning. Went up the ridge with last week's wax on the ski and it was good. Thought i would sink in but stayed on the surface. Going down was fast with some really sweet turns of the long kind. Wicked good with @ 30 inches of snow and everything rounded and waiting. Did i menti...

Been in a steam bath for a week. Over 40 gallons of Maple Syrup and continuing. Next few days should finish up. Good year so far! TM
