The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard
The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.
We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.
We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

Famous words of someone with a small car!
You dont need a SMALL car, just one thats smaller than another. For example, this was taken at Windrock OHV in Oliver Springs. Xboxchic and I went wheeling witha friend of mine. On our way out I deided to try trail 15, I made it. Just as I made it a big green hunk of junk on 44" tires showed up...after30min and 2 broken hubs, he limped home.
you can see my truck at the top

My wife and I along with two other couples and kids are staying at the base of sugar tonight and saturday night so,,,
I am trying to work out a Hawksnest/latehawk trip tonight with only two or three of us, will be at sugar all day Saturday doing some tubing and skiing and maybe something on Sunday. Never been to Beech, so I could go and give them a try or Hawk-tubing. Should be a fun weekend, just hope that its not insanely crowded.
Well, it was insanely crowded. I am just not sure that I made the "insanely" font big enough in the first post. The night session was fun but the 1/2 day was a waste of my $$. The snow was the best that I have ever skied(10" of natural will do that I guess). Was gonna hit Hawksnest today but some bonehead that looks just like ME drove his vehicle off the side of the road and had to wait forever to get pulled out(not damage, except ego). By the time I got out it was too late to do anything but the night and I had my family with me, so that was out(school).
