I was riding my bike around the bottom of Sunny D yesterday, and I realized that there was still a decent pile of snow left up there. So, naturally, I had to ski it today. Probably took 20 or so "runs" on it. Definitely fun! Check it out:

Preparing for the unbearable ascent of approximately 300 vertical feet to the middle of Riemergasse:

There's my little hump of snow:

And when I was done, I left behind a single little mogul:

And a mess at the bottom of the "run:"

Not bad for June 12th. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's probably the only skiable snow left in Vermont. And it's probably skiable for at least another week! :D

Make that 111 days... a good number to end on! :D :D :D

Yup. That's from the last day of lift served skiing. Sandy took a few shots of me that day. That one actually looked half-decent......

I can't help myself... I'm going to ski again tomorrow. :D

I heard that Mt Ops is taking out a rake and grooming that mound tonight. :lol:
