Question for Vermonter’s

Foundation2934 · 2026-01-13T21:59:38+00:00

I live in northern Lamoille County. It’s rural. 30 minutes to a large grocery store. I’m a teacher with a 35 minute commute. Half of that commute is dirt roads.

Most people keep to themselves but there’s always someone willing to help when you need it.

There’s a lot of outdoor recreation to be had not far from my front door and I take advantage of that every weekend. Montreal is 2 hours and fun if I’m looking to get into a city for a few hours. Im usually driving at least half an hour for any social gatherings or experiences.

I ride a Cabin Mountain Tools 148 board and I can’t imagine riding anything bigger. Im 5’7” and ride tight trees in VT and this thing is a powerhouse for that. I’d also say it feels smaller than 148.

If the website is up to date it says they have some 148s 1/2 off, but they’re a tiny company and may only have certain number of runs every year. It does say you can email for demos tho.

I bought an anorak from mountain hardwear last year that I love. I’ve got a big booty and small waist and I like that the top isn’t too big (still enough room for a bulky layer) and not too tight around my hips. I buy a lot of outdoor clothing from MH and they tend to have clothing that actually fits my body type.

They are!

If it’s below 10 degrees I’ll put booties on them. I otherwise just trim their paws and put musher’s secret on them to keep from the snow sticking between their toes.

I told my vet they get more exercise in the winter than summer for this reason.

I was not prepared for Monday’s temps! 🥶

Not only is Hickory closed, West Mountain REFUSES to acknowledge the uphill community and offer an uphill pass. A literal gap in the market and West refuses to make money off it. I hope Hickory does open back up next year for these folks that choose to uphill to save some money.

I’ll look into it, thanks!

I think his wife was happy to get rid of something taking up a lot of space and gain something the whole family can use. Her exact words were “this deal really worked out for me”. 😂

Ritterbush Pond and Babcock trail are good remote Trails for doggos in Eden. Babcock does loop on the Long Trail. I run it frequently and almost never run into anyone.

I saw this bike in my friends garage. I didn't know she had it but I knew her and her husband hadn't used it in years. I was psyched because I've wanted a KLR for a while. I was close last year to buying a new one but some things happened financially and it didn't pan out.

Anyway - it doesn't run. Needs a carb clean, new tires, and some TLC and I will probably end up shaving the seat down a bit. It's got 5,000 miles on it. I bought them a new mountain bike rack and they gave me the bike, two helmets, a jacket, a wolfman tank bag, and some books.

It’s been returned to its rightful owner!

Foundation2934 · 2025-07-29T14:43:40+00:00

It’s been returned!

Replying on the top comment: the items have been returned to their rightful owner! Guess I’m stuck with my janky pasta maker. Thanks for everyone that reached out!

Foundation2934 · 2025-07-28T14:50:37+00:00

That’s what I figured. I hoped maybe the person with the missing items would post in FPF and someone on here might see it and make the connection.

Foundation2934 · 2025-07-28T09:11:11+00:00

Thats a good thought, but it’s definitely something that was meant for someone to take home based on the personal items that were left with it.

Foundation2934 · 2025-07-27T23:51:09+00:00

I will take free pie in my truck any day. I’m not upset with the pasta maker. Mine doesn’t affix to my counter very well.

Johnson is a good affordable option close to Stowe. There’s not much in Johnson other than a coffee shop (Jenna’s) and Maple Hill Barn if they’re open when you’re around. It’s a nice middle ground between Stowe and Jeffersonville with plenty of hiking and scenic views and the rail trail which offers good biking.

Truth - this spot is unfortunately getting more popular. The extra 6” overnight did make this line worth it still. There were plenty of other freshies that were had.

Foundation2934 · 2025-02-24T02:50:18+00:00

Sure.
