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 hope youre not disappointed.



No POV shredding edits with a dubstep soundtrack of multiple runs down lower omigosh. Just me and my son. And almost no skiing. He's been asking to go to the snow since august and since plane tickets to New Zealand are pricey this was the soonest I could do it.



We DID poach some of the closed territory. That's right: Beginners luck! They may have had the carpet shut down but that didn't stop us. Luckily the time spent lugging him up and getting him to ski down to me was mercifully short. The temptation of snowball throwing was just too much to make this seem fun for very long.







Well armed





Looking good for October





It's important for him to leave wanting more. a good way of doing so is by simply doing whatever catches his fancy as long as it involves snow and having his boots on. So we made a snowman.





Lipht Lines





Lots of natural snow





Think the weather caught cat off guard? :) Improvements of any sort are always appreciated.





Some horses grazing. No fences.





Looking down at the valley on the way home
