Sugarbush Still Open

hey now,


Seeing somebody metioned Iceface still having snow last week -
Sugarbush says they will remain open thru 4/27 at I believe
$29/day.

I was out riding yesterday afternoon in a tshirt and it is still
quite good, lower runs getting a little sloppy but still full cover.
They may have to get a little creative to maintain true top to
bottom (more because of the run out to the Bravo quad), but there
will still be good cover no matter what on Rip Cord, Organgrinder
and Steins. I suspect Castle Rock will be closed, though it did
look like Middle Earth was still top down without too much grass
and rock dodging.

Keep in mind - if you don't do bumps, don't bother as there is
no more grooming given the temps. Probably your last chance
to play in the N.East outside of Tuckermans

A few photos (not from yesterday) for reference

Re: Sugarbush Still Open

You've been forbidden access!

Hi! You've been denied access to my website by virtue of, well,
something in the request that leads me to believe that you are a
spammer, a charlatan, or a dimwit. Possibly a combination of all three!
Just so we're clear, here's the information that I have about your request.
You purport to have come from (none) via an IP address of {A RoadRunner
IP}. The URL you were requesting was /snowboarder/sugarbush/lp_ogrc.jpg.
Your agent string is Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.8.1.14)
Gecko/20080404 Firefox/2.0.0.14.

Obviously if any of this means nothing to you and you're exceedingly
confused about why you're being denied access to my glorious content,
none of this will make much sense to you. If it's happened by accident
I'll do everything necessary to correct the problem. All you need to do
is send me some email at mailto:forbidden@rant.st. If you're blocked for
the wrong reason, I'll correct it. If, as I strongly suspect, you've
been denied for valid reasons, I'll probably forward your email to the
abuse section of your ISP.

However, as we both know, you are most likely using a spoofed referrer
trying to spam my referral logs. (And, you are likely a bot who could
care less what kind of response you get, but that's life.) Does this
ever actually work for you as a business case? As such, I don't care to
hear about your product. Honestly, I don't! So, just go away.

Thanks for coming by!

Sorry about that bro, the website denies Win98 in the user-agent string
as that is most often used by spambots. If you hit it up from a clean
XP or 2k install it should be fine.
