My mention of the tree skiing area between East Fall and

traveled on barrel staves by many folks, including the

A point of trivia. Does anyone besides me remember what
the area between East Fall and Cascade was called? and
who were these two lines (that'a hint) named for?

Is it "Toilet Bowl", or is that further to the right (looking up the
mtn)?


Further left, Toilet Bowl is between EFall & RoyalFlush,
The area is now called Downdraft, DoubleDipper, & Dipper
Woods. (Hint) the old name was for actual people at K
at that time.

It looks like no one knows.

Ya gonna tell us the answer?

Oh, sure,
The lines (not properly trails) were
Paul's Peril and Pres's Delight.

Paul was Paul Bosquet (remember Bosquet's in
western Massachusetts?) who was vice president
of Killington under Pres Smith in the '60's.

Thanks - I never knew that, but then again, I usually get up to
Killington only once every couple of years, but have been doing it for
a couple of decades now.

Speaking about this part of K-mart, over on EpicSki, two guys are
periodically dropping short but crazy mentions of Royal Flush, Toilet
Bowl, and further down the hill, Mahogany Ridge and the hellish fast
traverse over to its neighbor, Porcelain Ridge. They have mentioned
"cougar sightings" at MR, the need to eat continuously when at MR, and
other give-aways, but thus far, not a single person (other than
myself) seems to have caught on that its a joke.

Cheers & good turns this season

Mr. NE,
would you be the same guy who had a bartending gig at
sugarbush last year? Who might have put a spank on
persons who should remain nameless?

If so, drop me an email offline using
mistypnd-at-vermontel-dot-net

It also sound like I ought to go over to Epic and put in my $0.02
worth.

BTW, I have slid down MR from time to time, and on occasion
found myself shakily at the top of Porcelain Ridge.

I also have (posted elsewhere) a picture of the quad
at Mad River Glen.

Nope, 'twasn't me, and for personal reasons, I would prefer to remain
nameless myself. Sorry.

Sorry, you just sounded a little like someone else.

No problem remaining nameless.

However, since you are a NortheEast Skier, I am an ambassador
at Killington and maybe both of us could find it pleasant to
hook up at some point. You can always reach me at the email
addy I gave you in the original of this sub-thread.

I wasn't smart enough to get onto usenet with a pseudonym
(I used my realnym). So everybody knows me, including the
spam address harvesters. It's a little better since I'm now
using a Yahoo adress (which is real) as kind of a spam
catcher, which I rarely check. I've also started using
MailWasher lately to sift out most of the spam, It seems
to be working fairly well with almost no false positives.

I'm about ready to turn on auto-delete.
