Jay Peak, VT: 2/15 - 2/17/12 – the outtakes

This post was updated on .
If you wish, you can read the full TR on my blog but here are a few fun pics that didn't make it to the blog post. I thought you might enjoy them:

My old friend the Hwy 401. Due north and on the other side of the river from Warp Daddy HQ, I believe:


Looking down Kizbuel, an all-natural snow run. Good coverage though a little scrapy between the bumps:


Note the barely revealed 6" stump to the left of my pole. The woods are still full of hazards:


No offense to the snowboarders in the crowd but this guy was out of his league on Can Am. He was actually doing a kind of side-slip here, slithering downhill on his toe side and hands, yelling obscenities at his buddy the whole time:


A better snowboarder (probably Ed) made solo tracks on St. George's Prayer after poaching the closed Face Chutes:


Snowboard tracks on River Quai. Bad line choice, dude. I took the skier right route where there was snow, not ice, under the fresh layer:


The Green Beret on sunny solo Thursday. No snowmaking here either:


rivercOil landing his jump in about the same view as above, the next day:


rivercOil demonstrating his racing heritage on Green Beret:


rivercOil dealing with an unexpected snow-berm on lower Green Beret:


For some reason I love this picture. There is a lot of exuberance in his pose. Sorry, rivercOil:


The new Hotel Jay looks pretty nice from this angle. Sadly, it blocks the view of the mountain from the parking lot:
