Ughhh! YET ANOTHER East Coast TR?!

Don’t think we didn’t get some good-old-fashioned-powder-chute-schuss though!
Some of these powder chutes even had some steeps to schuss. Weird. I didn’t think the ice coast had any powdery steeps.
Our snowboarder-in-residence Christian was trying to get as deep as us skiers. His solution? Drop a 10 footer. That’ll get you deep.
After that excitement we headed out to do some meadow skipping.
Sorry for partying Sam and Allen… but meadow skipping is fun too :D

in the same vein that i often think about for a “long duration partially linear schmorgasborge TR” like this one is stuff from Vedder’s into the wild sound track. e.g:
