Darn, from the subject line I thought you were using Mount as a verb. Nice TR anyways.

There are many times when I feel I was afforded more freedom of expression in sunday school than on this forum. But, with my only option being to storm off in a huff, I seem to just stay perplexed and deal with it. I suspect it's simply not worth us trying another ski forum. The wizards...

What happened to the social group for skiers, etc? Is it just me or is it gone?

Thanks! My dream retirement is a decade of via ferrata's in the Dolomites.

6" in my yard and still coming. Let the season begin.

Here's one for you. About 2,500' of elevation in this natural glade.

Natron, After a few winters in NE I'm finally starting to see the potential of these gentle hills. As you probably know, there are great stashes, slides and glades all over if you hunt for them. While I won't reveal my locations, I'd sure love to see stoke pictures from others who are finding...

No thanks. It's one of those terms within context that everyone knows what I'm saying but I'd be filet'd trying to describe it in words.

"Consider bringing a 100' section of rope if you have any concerns about your group's ability..." That sums it up well for me. Overcomplicating the nuance of rope handling is like overcomplicating driving a car from home to the trailhead. Yes, you should know what you are doing and do it...

I'll say it - Where was the rope? I've been thinking about when my kids will be old enough to ascend TD and in my mind, I have always planned to bring a rope to assure their safety and confidence going up it for the first time. Ditto when I get my wife to join me on it. It's a real...

Way to go!!!

PM me when we get in season if you want to make some turns in SoVT. Resort or bc.

I am really torn in deciding if there is any difference in all this equipment or just hype. I skied skinny's and leathers and had a blast. The new stuff is better but I just bought what was on sale at the time; G3 Red Baron's and G3 targa bindings. There are people who carry on for ever...

GREEN MOUNTAIN NATIONAL FOREST CLOSED TEMPORARILY USFS CITES PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY CONCERNS RUTLAND, VT. Due to the extensive damage caused by Hurricane Irene, the Green Mountain National Forest (GMNF) has been closed temporarily. Under the authority of an Act of Congress dated, June 4...

Great post. I LOVE the Cirque and spent a climbing trip there years ago.

SuperTopo guidebooks are the gold standard for climbing guides. The new ADK climbing guide is very similar. SuperTopo also has PDF downloads as an option so you can print the topo and head off without the big book. Many guidebooks are written by locals and I find them a bit exclusionary...

Wow, so inspiring.

So I was "pushed" out of my camp once alone in the Brooks Range by a Griz. My mind was screaming DON'T MOVE but my feet would take off in a 10' panicked sprint. Then I would stop and hear the voice screaming in my head. Then I would be launched again in a running spasm for another 10 feet -...

Great job, Congrats!

I did the one day deal to avoid the lottery. Great place, great fun.
