This past weekend at Killington there was a Certified Ski Patrol exam for the best of the best in the Eastern Division which pretty much includes NY, PA and all the states east. It is a pretty elite group of patrollers who are pretty much in the top tier as both skiers and first aid responders. The test includes 10 modules ranging from skiing, running toboggans, first aid problems and ski area management techniques. There were about 10 of us that went from Holiday Valley, 5 of whom are Certified, to cheer on the 18 new candidates from the division. So even though there was no private jets, or million dollar homes, we did get to stay for cheap, party a ton, and ski for free. As you will see we did have to work for our four free lift tickets (that normally cost $72 / day). They asked us to ride toboggans for the candidates and act as victims in their first aid problems. It was an amazing long weekend, the weather was prefect and the snow was pretty decent. ENJOY The view from the top of the ski course- ![http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/View1.jpg](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/View1.jpg) Riding up the chair- ![http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/chair.jpg](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/chair.jpg) Top of Outer Limits, the longest bump run in the East- ![http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/3ofus.jpg](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/3ofus.jpg) Lunch in the sun- ![http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/group4.jpg](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/group4.jpg) Stick in my eye for the first scenario- ![http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/stickineye.jpg](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/stickineye.jpg) Riding the toboggan, ya it sucks as much as you think- ![http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/Pattoboggan1.jpg](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/Pattoboggan1.jpg) ![http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/Pattoboggan2.jpg](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/Onefastmonkey/Skiing/Pattoboggan2.jpg) [FONT=Times New Roman]Oh ya, there was three major events going on this weekend.

Ya despite the rain we were talking in Jeller the ride up was sunny and clear. Killington received about 3 feet of snow the week before we got there and lost it all the 4 days we were there. ---

I didn’t get to go at all this year and Vermont is my home state, I am from Rutland, VT so Killington and Pico were about 10 minutes away so after classes in High school a bunch of us would head up for an hour or 2 almost everyday. ---
