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.

I am still in DC right now but thought I would share my pictures with others on the board. Nothing to do with skiing but it's something a little different.

Awesome pics, man. What's not to love about D.C. (beside the government)?

The weather has been great. Metro seems to be WAY over crowded...way more than my last trip back in march. I think they are cutting service and running fewer trains and all that crap.

Went to a Apple store...that place is a NUTHOUSE enough said!

The insane traffic, the way it turns normal human beings into ******bags, the absurdly inflated housing prices, the lack of mountains closer than an hour away....





As you can tell, I'm not overly enthused about the possibility of moving to DC for a job next spring :D



Still hoping for something out west to turn up...

doooood, even if you are offered the job in DC, don't take it. Move out west it has been a life dream for everyone on this board.

Not trying to derail this thread...





...but it really depends where I get offers. If the only place I can get a job is DC, then so be it.



But if I get an offer for less money somewhere like Portland, Seattle, Salt Lake, or Denver....yeah, probably heading that direction.
