Ski Southeast Messageboard

I drove up to Boone last Wed night to ski at Beech on Thursday. I'm glad I did. It was a gorgeous day in the mtns and the air remained pretty cold despite the sun and mostly clear skies . There were a few other people up there mostly on shawneehaw and robbins run; I stayed on southern star and white lightning. The snow was great, had some wind texture and icy areas but overall it was great creamy surf snow that resembled powder more than anything else.



I made 12 laps and it was well worth the drive from Athens! Ended up being easier to use skins each lap

Chris showed up around 1

damn bo sick tr. wish i could have gone up. damn school and work...

action shots are from the last lap. The snow was better earlier in the day. My contour died after the first lap but I'll try to post it. It's a little washed out from the brightness

Awesome poaching shots!

Yeah, we were on Shawnee at the big booter sesh, but we managed to get in a few pow and tree turns as well. You should have come over and said hello, especially considering we had a keg. It was a beautiful day for sure...

:/

post up video from pow-lo-ween too dude. i need that raw footage too if possible

And hats off to security for letting you guys rip it up!

Security? This isn't sugar mtn. IMO, letting people hike up after the mtn is closed should be SOP with no trouble given to the riders. Not letting people go up would be very lame for them to do

That's cool, looks like you had a brighter and calmer day



even if it's limited vert isn't it special to get some pre- and apres season turns?



I love it, glad for everyone keeping their season going by hook or crook through kindness or luck -- or sheer determination
