Also reminds me of Guido's "push the envelope" shot at Brighton--depending on just how steep the dropoff is behind that little mini-horizon in the photo that intersects Matt's belly. But what about the terrain on page 75? Any idea where that is? Looks scrumptious.

Youch. It's always bugged me that I didn't connect on how far from the top (especially on molasses-paced Spruce lift) you were when you offered to wait for me and daughter Laura. (I'll nominate a SkiVittle Award to "Best Friend on a Powder Day": Jerm). Not sure whether realizing what other skiing I was keeping you _from_ makes it better or worse! > I find it pretty ironic that a guy who wants to keep everyting so secret > went and published some of his best places in a national rag.

I'm starting to feel like it won't be long now! --telenaut - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - SkiVt-L is brought to you by the University of Vermont.
