No need to apologize...

SBR... wasn't apologizing.  I guess the "rap" was the wrong word.

Credit wasn't right either. Idea was actually River's.

OK then. You must have been unconsciously practicing to be a Canadian, getting all sorry about everything when there is really no problem.

I take the rap for the existence of this thread.  

Matt is very much a shut up and ski guy. He's got his own blog and rarely even posts a TR.

I thought it would be an entertaining diversion from the sandy bummer and asked him to txt me whatever he wanted, pics or text.

He agreed, but it wasn't even close to his idea.

Definitely no apology needed from your part. I made the request and you facilitated amongst goodness else knows what you and your family have had to deal with this week. THANKS!

And THANKS MATT for posting! If Matt waited until he got home, I wouldn't have gotten the beta I needed to make a decision (which is, tentatively at 85%, I am going). It was a huge help to me and I certainly appreciate it. Not everyone "gets it", and that is okay. I'm not normally a "stoke" guy but this stuff is great!

im pretty sure from seeing you around the internet you are not going.

Snow guns look like they are coming on this weekend and FIS is suggesting up to 4" of natural could fall this weekend. That definitely creates a significantly closer option for turns. That will merit some consideration.

Was just offered a rideshare with ISBD. TOO tempting. effwords. I wanna ski!
I'm thinking no
but I should say yes?

Seize the Carp!

So, it was 60 degrees and high water paddling season in northern New England yesterday morn, and ski season kicked off in North Carolina and West Virginia.  Chris Christie and Barack Obama are giving each other bro hugs.  And I didn't see a single slutty nurse costume on Halloween.  Strange things are afoot........

I'm hip to this thread.  Diggin' it.

Maybe the mid-Atlantic ski areas can recycle their fracking flowback into snowmaking???

And is that Harvey Dent in the blue sweater and yellow hat in the Whitegrass lodge?
