GoofyFoot Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 I am bemoaning the fact that I must work for a living knowing how great the cord would have been this morn'! One small compensating factor is that next Monday is a T-66 dat at Tremblant and I am going to be there. Anyone up for taking a mental health day Mon 7 Mar 2011?

philpjo Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Paul, myself and Andy (token planker) are heading to MSM on Wed and Friday. Anyone care to join us? Should be much better than last time we were there. We were at Calaboggie yesterday and it was EPIC. Lots of hero snow even on the steeps!! We left many trenches...to the point where we were suppised no one complained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian M Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 ^ Good job guys! I'd love to ride day-time, but can't get away from work at the moment. However, I'm planning: Wednesday - Vorlage (night) Saturday - somewhere Sunday - Tremblant w girlfriend Anyone else up for Saturday somewhere? The weekend does depend on the weather... looks like it might be raining buckets around here... Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoofyFoot Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 T & L has organized a bus trip to Jay with some great deals (free lift ticket Fri PM, meet & greet Fri evening, etc). The real bonus is that Jay just received FOUR FEET of snow in the past week (yeah, go check their website!) so I jumped on this deal on Fri. Email Chris Verrilli (cv@tandl.com) for details. I just looked at the T&L website and could not see the poster and it was too large to post here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rain will be done by Friday and more snow is in the forecast! Also, I will be at CF tonight (Tue). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabatha Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 OK - change of plans ... Brian, I am FINALLY going to head back to camp Fortune. What time do you plan on being there? Looks like the conditions should be great ... very excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention putting in a "perfect" valley season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabatha Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Brian - thanks for the ride and the excuse to go to Camp Fortune again, while I am not saying I am an enthusiast, I did have a great night. The conditions were hard pack and fast and there was NO ONE on the hill. I made it back to the run where I broke my shoulder last year and have to admit that I felt like I had some great carves and really pulled it together. Camp Fortune's evil hold over me is done! And yes - I have now skied every hill in the Ottawa Valley at least once this season. If the rain doesn't ruin everything, I will try and get out some more - fingers crossed that it stays cold!

Ian M Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 If anyone was planning on coming out tonight, I'm bailing on Vorlage tonight. There's a wall of snow that I don't feel like driving both ways through advancing on Ottawa... plus visibility for carving sucks in heavy snow. Gr.

GoofyFoot Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 There's a wall of snow that I don't feel like driving both ways through advancing on Ottawa... plus visibility for carving sucks in heavy snow. Which is why Thursday holds much better promise - if the rain is minimal. I plan to sneak away early and get to CF at dusk to get a few carving turns in before I teach a class at 7 PM. Any one else interested? Yeah, if it starts raining hard, I do not expect anyone to come out, but I am an eternal optimist! -Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoofyFoot Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 won't be out tonight - too wet... Yeah, I wuz overly optimistic yesterday. :o Fortunately, I called CF before leaving. They closed the place down at 4 PM due to the liquid sunshine... I am going to try again Sat at CF and Sun at MT. -Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loopback Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 There will be at least another week as Ontario March break is next week...it's too early to even think about over (just keep repeating it). Pakenham and Bogie were both open today....May go to Pak tonight. Calabogie was fantastic on Monday and they claim to still have 90cm base. Phil, Andy and I did MSM again on Wednesday and it was EPIC. I threw up some GoPro video we took in the BOL Videos sections and some pictures in the Photos section (personal best carving photos thread). Phil got some awesome shots too and video too! With the kids off for March Break next week so I may do another MSM day trip and a few mornings at Pakenham. I'm heading to Moonstone for the weekend of 19th and am going to do at least 7 days at Tremblant on the $150 spring season pass in late March or early April. Think snow (or at least colder temps) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaRtharsis Posted March 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 What day are you thining for MSM? I have Friday booked off and was plannign on making it a MT day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaRtharsis Posted March 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 I have a line on 2 passes for MT @ $50 each. Anyone need some? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loopback Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 I think we're heading for Moonstone Thursday night or Friday morning so Friday is out for me. Maybe MSM Wednesday? I'm supposed to work Mon-Thurs but am pretty sure we can get out for a day....will have to talk to Phil. //Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
