It all depends on your goals. I have both CC and DH. I had my CC bike for many years before I moved up to a DH. As I feel it is important to learn good bike skills before you let a high end bike...
Maps always suits me....I had the same issue at The Mother, but there I expeted it.
It was a great day for the race. The snow conditions were great with lots of cover in the woods.
They did have 2 manditory ski removel sections on the LT (one of which got be last week).
If I...
Is ony one else going to make the race this year? I will be doing the Heavy Metal group for the first time :lol:

I thought SB HeliSkiing was sponsored by "DART" it just works in reverse...they get you off the mountain when you need it
Since I tend not to go into Slidebrook via the tourist route;
Backpack
Cell Phone
GPS
2-way radio
First aid kit (weekend) enough to help others that may need help
whistle

I just had my new Sweet helment delivered....I no longer need my G10 Skull Candy headphones (wired) and the controler you will need a new wire from your player to the headphones. How does $25 sound...
Hey Brew Ski, do not forget to take your snow tires off and sell them on ebay.
Thank you for sharing the pictures. It looks like you had a great day in the sun. The condistions looked great. Based on the weather I may have to head to Kmart next week.
Thanks....I still need the exercise and I am tired if roller sking the Gap. I would guess that a person can get some turns in the area that they are making snow. If I am going to hike up anyway...
Can anyone local atest to how the skinning/skiing would be this weekend if one were to make the trip?
+1 for Nokian Hakkapelittas, studded - been running these on my 2WD Volvo wagan for 20 year back and forth to VT from CT in dry, ice and 15 inchs of snow without a single issue.
I do have to note...
For those of you that have kids doing Alpine Touring (not Tele) what gear do they use. I am most interested in the bindings.
Hi Win, based on the opening day plans, when do you hope to get the snow guns going?
[quote="gone.skiing"]TreeBandit,
tactical issues are easy to address and they do get addressed. We are not discussing basic "is my kid in the right group" type of scenario here. Some of the things...
My question to the group is, when the coaches and program leadership was around at the end of the season and even during the season, did you bring up these concerns that were highlighted here?
I...
I would go with the fact that if the area to be shown on a map is smaller is scale then you would draw it bigger to fill a standard page, good marketing.
Also, I like the idea because Ellen has...
Dont you just love to move to digital....I sold my dark room stuff several years ago and have been using Photoshop. If you have the time this is a great program for making alterations to pictures. ...
I have a Garmin 60xc, and I have not purchased the software yet as I have been waiting to see when they were going to do SB. What i liked was the fact the the trails and lifts was part of the maps....
I skied last year with a GPS. I used this to keep count of runs and distance as well and my location in the woods off trail...I have been watching this company for most of the year and they just...
That is funny. :lol: I thought MRG was all about adventure. I guess SB will be selling the groomers soon as why do you need them and we can go allnatural. I think you are missing the point....I...
I had my 156 Nomads with G3 Onyx Tech bindings...the bindings did take some getting used to, but the boards were great. I did not want to use my new skins so all I had was 80mm. These worked fine...
Well plans changed. I was able to get up north this weekend and with that I skied MRG on Sat and Ellen on Sun. I have to say that the conditions about 3/4 the way up Ellen were great with lots of...
I like to ski both on and off piste even with my child, but I do not believe none adventure groups should be taken on non-official trails. If we get in trouble for talking about them here and even...
