    Backcountry hikes in New England

    Hello all: Wondering if anybody knows of any good mountains in New England (Berkshires, VT, NH) for hiking and skiing during the winter. I do Tucks in the Spring, but interested in finding some similar experiences for the November - March season. Any good spots?

    Intrawest SOLD

    I USED TO BE AN INVESTMENT ANALAYST AT PIRATE CAPITAL. I've known this deal was imminent since January. The only question was price... $35 is actually a low ball number, and Pirate is only accepting it due to anticipated softness in the real estate market. Their valuation was a very elaborate...

    Intrawest SOLD

    Intrawest sold itself to a private equity fund for $2.8 billion this morning after Pirate Capital, a dissident hedge fund and IDR's largest shareholder, put pressure on management to sell the company to the highest bidder.

    how do you get to chad's from the bottom of alta?

    I remember reading this thread for the first time. It was like sex. It took so long to build up, and then--out of nowhere--you get these links to videos. Definitely my favorite thread on NS.

    Adios Newschoolers.com!

    I might just kill you for actually making me read an entire fucking post on this site. I've gone, like, five years without actually reading anything anybody else had to say (p.s. you're all useless), and then you go and spoil it by faking a murder story.

As a semi-frequent club-goer in the boston area, I've had the chance to observe a number of loser dudes try to dance with bangin' chicks. So let me give you bums a little lesson: 1.) Go to the dance with a...
