......The fluid intake level is just really high.

Well, you know how the say'n goes, "No matter how much I drink, I still wake up thirsty!"

Thanks! So, I should flip off another to Killington then. Consider it done!!

So, you've never been to K-mart? If you like bumps...!! And steeps, and, er, New Yorkers...

Isn't it a law of Nature that eventually we begin to look like our avatars?

Uh oh, what am I in for?

I'll see if I talk that pretty gal in my avatar into a trip over.

Been there... usually early or late skiing, though. But, haven't been there in many years. Alison is heading over for pre-season race training the week before Thanksgiving.

My point has been that we should investigate group pricing -- who knows, if it only takes 10 of us to bring the price down, we could easily have that many for a day ski...

...and trees

Ha! Great ski memories!! You going to be skiing with me, buddy?? If not I need to borrow your poles!!

 

[hikethe115]

I think I can make this one. Since you're looking for New Yorkers...wouldn't want to disappoint you.

 

[Peakbagr]

Anyone up for one of the local VT100 bushwhacks?

 

[Seeker]

...and trees

ACK! Uh, yeah, those too.

That would be great! Yes, I'd like to get as many New Yorkers as possible since this is pretty central for everyone.....

Sadly, no skiing for me this year. I might be able to get some mild XC in. Remind me to take the poles up.

Hey Everyone

Who's in for sunrise at the summit of Killington, saturday morning of the VT Gathering ?

Begin civil twilight 6:49 a.m.
Sunrise 7:21 a.m.

Please, if someone can chime in for the trail info, so we can set up at departure time, that would be nice. I guess somewhere around 3am, but I'm not sure...

That means no partying friday night (or no sleep at all).

My spouse and I are interested, big time. We'll know for sure when the date gets close.

What interests me the most is the music making. Did I read this thread right? FF, Gris and MattC will all be there? Any drummers?

You wake up before Noon at gatherings??????

 

[MichaelJ]

The true summit of Killington, if I recall correctly, does not have an eastern view. You will have to go down the little connector trail to the top of the Gondola at the ski area to see in that direction (or stand on tiptoes to look over the foliage and through the bottom old fire tower and its myriad antennas).

Only if someone loads my sleeping bag (w/ me in it) onto the gondola...

Yes, at least one drummer, bassist, and keyboardist will also be there.

 

[Neil]

Should I bring amplification?

Yeah right.
You'll take some pictures for the rest of us won't you?

Hey Timmus;
I think Michael may be right about the lack of easterly view on Killington, but there is a great east facing ledge on the summit of Shrewsbury Peak which has a summit about 2 miles up the trail and is south of Killington on the Long Trail by about six miles or so, the two combined might make a nice thru-hike!

The sunrises over the Killington area are indeed beautiful, I see them everymorning on my way to work!
