    TR: Opening weekend 2009/10

    Location: Sugarbush, VT
    Conditions: All kinds

    Weather kept playing games with mountain OPs this year but decided to help out in the end.

    Sugarbush freestyle team kicked of the season on Saturday with a hike and some dry land training. Good times had by all. Looks like another great group assembled for another great year.


    There is snow up there somewhere... When in doubt go higher...




    Sunday rolled around with good snowmaking temperature and 5 inches of new snow up top...

    I almost lost first chair to this gentleman,..


    First turns of the season...


    Somebody is excited...


    This is more like it, forget dry land, it is skiing time...


    The fix is in, we can take her off the suicide watch...


    There is always a kicker out there waiting for you...


    Freshies...


    Never to early to earn your turns...


    New England's finest...


    Early season self-service terrain park...




    A bus stop bench can replace trampoline training in a pinch...


    See you this weekend.

    Nice pix. Although, with my first gravity fix of the season coming tomorrow afternoom or first chair on Saturday morning, this fresh dose eye candy/alpine methedone isn't mixing well with this afternoons coffee and desk clearing efforts.

    It kinda hurts but I like it. Thanks for sharing.

    Well done. Thank you.
    any chance you can get those kids to clear off my desk so an old man can ski?

    I left at 3:45 and it was snowing steadily. Getting back over the gap was hairy.

    My vote would be for tomorrow afternoon. Really!

    Two roads diverged in a wood,

    and I- I took the one less traveled by,


    And that has made all the difference.

    Must've have been all the snow dancing and the sacrifices to Ullr... think we need some sort of thank you celebration.
    Ithaca is (not) Vermont (but it is gorges)
