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.

nearly all the good stuff closed off today. snowmakers full tilt on sawmill. looks like jhook, knotbumper, ballhooter, all *should* be open. snow is nice though, lots fun little cuts into and out of the trees. best powder is the 30 feet behind the condo. lunch done, time to head back out

Sorry we couldn't make something work BB, but we did take your advice and stayed at the Marlinton Motor Inn (was greeted by a friendly little spider in the tub hehe). We def made some memories this weekend though. Almost back home, will post up a TR then. Hope you wrap thngs up with a bang today!!

I thought the marlinton inn met the qualifications of what you were looking for JM cheap, fairly close and being a dive was o.k. :)

Hey Brookbarrel -- it was a lot of fun -- I'm going to post a TR tomorrow but it will be old news by then; maybe I will just upload some photos on your thread



I went down Sawmill one of the last runs before they wisely closed it -- my sons had been there about the time you described and after talking to them I went over but TOO late, way more rocks then powder



I was late because I was having a blast demoing the Armada ARV (sp?) and the Elray (again sp?) I love demo days -- I always feel like I'm getting by with something.



Great early turns; have you looked at the SS video from Ed -- I'm pretty sure you're in it
