Ski Southeast Messageboard

Made the trek up from Charlotte for the half day session today with some friends. I-77 was a mess this morning. The roads in the mountains were in much better condition. Glad I made the trip though as it was a beautiful day. Not a cloud in the sky, perfect temperatures, no blowers, and great snow. Can't ask for more in NC.



Riding up first time.





I always love this shot from the lift.





Down White Lightning.





Beautiful view from the top.





My crew. Notice the lift lines weren't too bad. Got a little longer than this but the guys working the lines were really efficient at getting people on.





White Lightning 1.





White Lightning 2.





Robbins.





Finding stuff to play around in on Southern Star.





About to go over a jump in Powderbowl.





Up rail at the bottom.

Looks like a beautiful day to ski,perfect temps I presume!

Great day. Started out pretty sketch.



I-40 in Winston







Looking fine by the time we got to the mountains







Bluebird day, no wind, not to cold, lots of powder.







Starting to let White Lightning mogal up a bit.















Lower Oz







Look! I'm actually parallel!







Beginning of the boardercross racing







All in all, great day. Nice to finally met you Kendog!

great pics. probably the best day out this year as far as weather & conditions. mlk day would be 2nd.



kendog: i think i saw you around 1:30 getting setup to ride @ the quad. i remember a guy w/a camera on the helment @ that time. the pov's add alot to the tr.



skipink: i know i saw you now that i see your pics above. i was on the bunny slope w/my 5 yr old daughter teaching her to snowboard. you were hanging out @ the bottom next to ski school after lunch. next time i'll yell.

So does that POV camera take video or picturs only?

Looks like a beautiful blue bird day!

Both. You can set it to take a picture every 2 or 5 seconds, 3 shot burst, or regular mode.

That was me. Pink Jr and the Ravenette were taking a snowboard lesson from Iheartsnow so we were waiting for that. Were you the one laughing when I fell over for no reason?!

Oh and that was me screaming at you two from the lift! Way to go getting the youngster boarding, how'd she like it? Will she race Skiwryter Jr in the next boardercross?

yes skipink i saw the fall. i think we all have those humbling moments. she's not ready for the boardercross yet. she goes heel edge all the way down freestyle. but for her 1st day of snowboarding, not bad.
