LJ Strenio Poster Benefiting VT Flood Victims 9/2/2011 Words: Erme Catino | STE Managing Editor Photos: Dan Brown | Kapitol Photography The aftermath of Hurricane Irene is now into it’s fifth day. Slowly power is being restored to the battered communities, though roads left in a pile of rumble are making it difficult for relief efforts. Amidst these distressing accounts of the current state of affairs in Central and Southern Vermont, Vermonter’s across the region have been organizing to assist their neighbors. We at Ski The East are deeply saddened to hear of the devastation caused by Irene, and are proud to assist in the rebuilding process. In partnership with photographer Dan Brown, Ski The East will be selling a limited edition poster featuring VT local & pro skier John Strenio. The 300 posters will be individually numbered by Brown and signed by LJ Strenio. All of the proceeds will be donated to the Mad River Valley Community Fund, specifically their Flood Relief Fund, and will go towards helping area residents & businesses that were affected by the flooding caused by Hurricane Irene. Dan Brown of Boston, Mass, was at Sugarbush Resort this past weekend photographing a wedding. Little did he know he was about to become situated in the middle of a disaster. The wedding went off without a hitch, but after the reception, information from guests and employees kept coming in that the roads to the resort were getting washed out. “Without power & limited internet access via my phone, I kept checking major news stations & Twitter for any updates, but all I kept seeing were news briefs about the VMAS & Lady Gaga.” The next day Dan documented as much as he could on his way back to Boston. “It was pretty heavy to see all that loss of personal items; photos, birth certificates, and family history all washed away. Through all of that though, it was amazing to see the quick turnaround of those affected. I was walking through the aftermath in Waitsfield & Waterbury, VT, and neighbors were helping each other haul flood-ravaged furniture to the curb and people were bbq’ing food to feed the volunteers. They weren't waiting for a telethon to get things done, they were just doing what was needed to move forward.”

Last Saturday I headed up to Deer Valley resort with Ethan Taft. While the terrain at Deer Valley provides relatively tame and unexciting skiing, the same terrain makes for some of the most fun and exhilarating mountain biking in the state. The trails are not full of berms and table tops, but rather chunder, baby heads, and shark teeth. Instead of riding a long with too much travel on a trail as wide as a hummer, [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/31/55/21/315521.jpeg[/IMG]
The last month has consisted of surfing, climbing, hiking, mountain biking, wakeboarding, whitewater rafting and waterskiing. A few random snow days have been strewn in the mix, but for the most part I haven't skied much since May. Because of the massive quantities of snow that Snowbird Resort in Utah has received this year, it has decided to remain open through the 4th of July (and perhaps beyond) [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/30/50/24/305024.jpeg[/IMG]

Man, I didn't get to ski enough in February. Brady did though. Here is a new edit from him. You might recall in my last blog post that we have been doing some night touring. Here is some footage to prove it. There is nothing more exhilarating than getting a face shot in the dark, not knowing if you might run into a tree, or a bush, or a coyote, or a person with their headlamp turned off. &nb [...]
