View Full Version : M@ and DMC slide together at last - March 18th

02-17-2006, 08:53 PM

5+ years on this board, many times meeting for the par-tay and the hey-hey, but never the sliding. When - oh - when will I slide with DMC?

We are past the 1/2 way mark in a pretty pathetic east coast season and I dunno where else it could possibly happen except for one special place.

A magical place.

A place with a powerful aura.

So I look to the stars for the date...
(really... I'm going to this webpage http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/MoonPhase.html)

March 18th.

The logic is the first weekend after a full moon (which is on Pi Day this year (3.14.06)) - anyone got a better reason? We can hike up in the moon light on thursday night, and that early in March we should be able to ski down. I'm sure we'll find some avalanach experts to find us the right way down if it's an issue. Or just make it a day trip... mmm... day trippin. Can I get a "Hell Yeah" ?

The logic is inescapable, the math inescapable; may the moon light glisten on freshies for that historic event!

Got a gig on the 18th.... Playing the Ski Patrol party at Hunter... :(

It's been my lot in life this winter... Too much playing music..

May be able to make the Thursday night hike up and take Friday off though...

Maybe it should be on SkiCdave's calendar too.

It is - click "Roll Call" above. But I think the 2005 stuff might be morhped into 2006 or something - there's a lot of people listed for a lot of 2006 dates in there and not much chatter about them in the threads.

Nope.. no smorphing of data from 2005 to 2006. There are just a lot of secret rendevouings going on.. not sure about PWDR8S plan to ski naked with Harkin Banks on July 10th, 2006 though... :doh:

Besides, I think the date is supposed to be the 11th... provided there IS snow left in da Ravine. I probably should remove naked skiing so as not to scare away peeps.

March 18th! Moonshine! ....and I don't mean http://timefortuckerman.com/photopost/data/774/1659butt.gif. http://www.timefortuckerman.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif

I'm bumping my prob down to 71% becuase of baby sitting complications.

My sister-in-law is moving back to the area from VA. Beach, and almost IMMEDIATLY she is ruining what was our most reliable baby sitting option, i.e. my Mother in Law.

I'm pretty sure if we can get Elwood to commit to the trip than the tide will turn and the lovely wife will decide it's just too good for me to pass it up.... wait - hold that (researching...) ... moe is having "SNOE.DOWN" that weekend in lake placard. Sigh.

So probably no elwood.

So spin me at 71% right now. I'm working on options tho. It might end up being the whole fam (Me + Wife + 5yrO + 3yrO) doing the casual day trip weather permitting. Which would be a MAJOR photo op and good time by all kinda thing.

There should be plenty of green in TUX that weekend! I'm considering camping up in GOS and maybe getting over to the ravine as a day trip.

For real... The weekend of the 18th?

For real... The weekend of the 18th?Yup... 2 weekends away! (Well 3 if you count this coming weekend)

I was planning for the weekend of the 11th for the best full moon glow effect but decided to slide it forward a week in the hopes we would get more snow.

The full moon is on Tuesday March 14th.

I think DMC is questioning your statement that there will be a lot of green in the bowl.... as in bare ground.
