In the 80s

Killington was really warm this past weekend and the snow was really good for late April. Temps got into the low 80s with tons of blue sky above. The day was started with some hiking over at the Bear Mountain. Outer Limits still has a ton of bump lines to ski with a little hike.

The pipe had about two hits still left to hit which was pretty fun to play around in and we found a micro booter in that area too. The snow thats left over by the pipe might last another week or so in spots.

I Forgot...

Last weekend I got some more skiing in at Mount Snow. For mid April on the east coast it was pretty legit. They had 2 full top to bottom parks open along with 3/4 of the super pipe. Awesome job by Ken Gaitor and his crew at Mount Snow this season!

Now on to this weekends fun...Killington will be the place with it being sunny and in the 80s! Plus they are claiming that they will stay open until May 2nd!

"The Wrestler"

Just watched Darren Aronofsky film staring Mickey Rourke. The movie is pretty good watch if you like wrestling or not. On the Plus side Marisa Tomei(Cougar) is a great stripper! The soundtrack is kick ass too if your in to "80's Metal." Give the film a look!

Good Friday

Good Friday was pretty fun day to ski in upstate New York. I made the trip to Gore Mountain in North Creek. The top half of the mountain was pretty nice with great bumps on a few runs and fun groomers. I don't think the locals have seen too many tall tee's before and seemed to ask questions about my attire for most of the day. The park only had 3 hits in with the last feature being pretty fun. It was a Hitch-N-Post and Bonk barrel. For skiing in April with all the rain lately the mountain was an alright time. 

wow

So I heard this song in Travis Rice's epic movie "That's It, That's All."

The music video for "We Own the Sky" by M83 is just awesome.
