My vocabulary has once again been reduced to one word.

This is Saturday. It was better on Sunday and I need to go find out how good it is today after yet another dumping!

WOW!

All that's was left was grunts and other animal sounds. Insane...

Pic is of the guy always taking pics of everybody else.

And to think there is actualy some significant base in the trees below all this greatness.

John, pick up some speed for Pete's sake. You need to spend more time with Pilots next year... ;-)

That's not me folks. It's ALC Coach Rick Hale. Notice the shot was from below him. I had already blazed down to here to take the picture. I have had no problems staying afloat and moving. Jay was always behind me on the two runs we took this weekend. And I always want to spend more time with the Pilots, but not because I need to go faster.

...it was during a pause to reflect on the beauty of our surroundings that I said to John "hey...let me go ahead and take a shot".

The rest of the time I was indeed inhaling "Atkinson Vapor Trail Crystals"....which served as breakfast.

On Saturday I powered up from CT to grab 5th chair SB to Murphys Glades, then Eden then 1st chair Heaven's Gate. Organigroinder to trees. Then 2 laps on Ripcord / Lwr Ripcord before it got a bit skied off (yes I am being picky given all the fluff). Multiple laps through Paradise Woods. Then over to head of Birch Run to dip into Slidebrook to finish at 3pm. A stellar day in VT or anywhere.

Then after Easter with inlaws returned for Monday. Arrived Sunday early eve. Started to dump. Put Saturday into perspective. Knee deep most spots in trees, thigh deep in many others. 3rd set of tracks down Middle Earth. Gee it has really been way too long since I enjoyed that with face shots every other turn! Woods off Organgrinder were tremendous. Never had that many 1st tracks right through my last run in woods above Snowcreek. Double insanity.

The better of the 2 days? Monday, by 15"!
