Good piece on skiing safely and obeying the markers on the slopes…

CAUTION ≠ CLOSE YER EYES & GO FAST: “Last Saturday morning, a real nice gentleman swerved off the groomed portion of Upper Skid Road into some deeper untracked snow to avoid some kids.  He was in an area where warm groundwater creates some holes in the snow, and he took a little tumble.   He wasn’t hurt much and was real nice about it, and that was that…” (Via Blog Crystal.)

Some great ski shots and report on conditions over at Wildcat in New Hampshire:

I don’t know why, but I really enjoy looking at photos from ski areas, so if you have any you want to share, send them along. This series is from Brimacombe:

Brisk at the Brim!: “It was brisk on the slopes of Brimacombe today but the sun shone brightly from above making for some ideal ski and snowboarding weather!


THIS day, was JAY GALL APPROVED!


Lesson time.


Ben’s and Bowl couldn’t get much finer.


The Challenger run was no challenge for this young lad.


A peak at our West Chalet from the top of Flyer…


…have a rest in front of the warm fire on a ‘brisk’ day.


Snow….we made PILES this past week.


Chris H. enjoying the day coaching.


Trend setter Adam M…everything old is new again.


‘Quicks Draw McCraw’ ripping up the race course.


Riding the Bowl Chair


As has become tradition…my annual snap shot of these ‘good looking’ gents Al and Jerry riding the Bowl chair.


The BBQ was serving up some quality eats….served by Debbie and Josh (I had the ‘Brim Burger’)


Our ONSITE DEMO tent ready and waiting to help you find the perfect pair of skis! Don’t forget all Skis, Boards, Boots, Poles and Outerwear are now on sale for 30% off msl!


Chris setting up a set of bindings.


Even if you didn’t have skis or a snowboard on your feet, it was a nice day to just kick back on the deck.


Tomorrow’s forecast looks like a little warmer version of today, load up your gear and head out to the Brim to play!

Another day in paradise on the Brim!
Cheers,
Mark”
