    I know it's the beginning of presidents week, but is anyone riding stratton this weekend? I'm going to try to get out for first runs on Sunday and am looking for people to ride with as my last unsupervised outing did not end well ;-(

    How did you make out Todd?

    I'm in the lodge. Purple jacket. Headed up the 6 pack in about ten min.

    Sorry I missed you, never saw a purple jacket. But what a blast this morning was! Until I was thoroughly soaked, but at least it was warm.

  10. Question for those with dogs...

    in The Lodge

    Posted

    My dog stays home 9+ hours a day by himself during the week, without going out. A previous dog, was paper trained to go on newspaper spread out in the corner of our basement, and we left the basement door opened so she cold go as needed. We've left her home by herself for overnight before, with plenty of food and water, and access to the basement. All of my dogs have been trained to "self-eat," they never eat all their food at once. I've only had mid size to larger dogs. They've also been crate trained, so they love their crates, it's their own little den.

    Quick question, I plan on arriving around 4pm on Wednesday, just in time for the ECES Après party in the Bears Den. How should I obtain or who should I look for, to get my wristband so I can join up with everyone...

  15. Who is riding where on MLK Day 1/16?

    in New England

    I don't want to subject my daughter to VT temps on MLK Day 1/16, especially in the morning. So, we are going to hit a MA or CT hill.

    Who is going to be riding where?

    I was thinking, coming from West Hartford, CT:

    Berkshire East

    Butternut

    Mohawk

    Ski Sundown (was there today on skis with my 3 yo, not bad)

    I'll have my 7 yo daughter with me, and hopefully I can get her as a walk in to a morning ski lesson. Otherwise she is with me for the day, and I may have to ski with her.

    Thoughts?

    Fun day today, regardless of what the weather was doing. Thanks Steph, Alex and Jonny!

    One thing I learned today (or many things rather) is that riding a board Ive never ridden before, riding a variable side cut board which I've never ridden a vsr board before, riding a metal board which I've never ridden a metal board before and riding a Donek plate which I have never ridden a plate before, is a lot to introduce all at once (at least to me). Once I went back to my old faithful the groove came back. I think it's time to skip the plate and get to know the new ride before introducing the plate again.

    Cool, I'll shoot to be in the base lodge around 8:00am, need to pick up my X2 card. Is it a 9:00am start on Friday, or is it considered holiday?

    Keep an eye out for me, tough to miss at 6'7", grey helmet, red donek or black donek with a plate.

    Anyone going to be riding Stratton this Friday the 13th? Or Monday the 16th?

    I plan on riding at least one of those days, if not both. But if others were going to be out I was going to bring my DSLR camera gear to get some target shooting practice in before ECES is here...if not, then I was going to travel light.

    Ah, opted for free place to stay in Waterbury, doing Bolton Valley with the kiddos. May hit Stratton on Thursday on the ride back to CT if I can get the 3 and 7 year olds into ski school at Stratton. Is it typical holiday crowds there? Quieter than usual up here.
