trailertrash Posted December 31, 2007 Report Posted December 31, 2007 Hey Mark, Post a report when you get back ok? thanks john Quote
Mark Brown Posted January 3, 2008 Author Report Posted January 3, 2008 Only took 13.5 hours to get here -- rain in NJ, snow/rain in MA, and then lot's of snow north of Portland. Geesh, Rt 27 gets *really* dark after sundown and the snow is coming down! Conditions this morning were phenomenal!!!!!! Gorgeous powder conditions - something we *never* get in the mid-Atlantic. Definitely illustrated some of my sub-optimal riding execution -- a huge thanks to Erik, who provided an excellent knowledge transfer this morning. Having just a wonderful time introducing my family units to the 'Loaf -- this is my 4th trip, but I've always been by myself (ECES '04, '06', and a "have to go riding" last January). Tomorrow calls for some wonderful January weather in Maine - highs in the single digits with wind... Carve on!!! Quote
Mark Brown Posted January 5, 2008 Author Report Posted January 5, 2008 The groomers did a fantastic job last night. The snow conditions were utterly fantastic!!!!! More excellent knowledge transfer from Erik -- "She who must be obeyed" even got a little dose... Along with some componentry adjustments *grin*, it was a perfect day! Thanks to the 'Loaf staff and Erik for a fabulous visit. Last day tomorrow, which will be my first weekend visit at the resort -- local intelligence is just like home, show up early and then call it quits when the hoards descend... Carve on!!! Quote
Mark Brown Posted January 5, 2008 Author Report Posted January 5, 2008 Last day -- have to head home at o'dark thirty tomorrow morning (boohoo)... Cracked the whip on the family units and had them in line for the Super Quad at 8:15 -- unfortunately they shut it down after loading about 10 chairs and it was out of commission *ALL* day. Conditions were fantastic even with the crowds and lift lines. Last "Perfect Turns" session with Erik with some nice breakthroughs -- THANKS AGAIN, ERIK!!! Going to be real hard going back to my local bump after this most excellent vacation! Carve on! Quote
skidad62 Posted January 6, 2008 Report Posted January 6, 2008 I was at the loaf all week, just got back... it was fantastic!!! Somehow I missed you Mark. We had 3 awesome dumps thru the week the last was the best and just before the deep freeze!!! Quote
