207 Urban Collaboration

Alright all you 207ers, I've been doing some thinking about hitting urban this year and I think it would be rad if we collaborated as a team, hitting specific features on specific dates. Obviously groups couldn't get too large or it might get chaotic and since free days vary from NSer to NSer not everyone would be able to make it. Ideally, I think it would be nice to have a decent sized group (5-20). This way those with cameras like myself can film, while others hit features or alternate with those behind the camera(s). I know urban is all about timing and location which is why we would need the right area to ski. Portland is tricky as well as any other densely populated area, and it becomes even harder to hit features with a huge group. So I'm calling on all those interested on the idea for possible locations and dates. Pics would be good. I think this would be a great way to unite some of Maine's NSers interested in hitting urban features. Lemme hear some feedback!

My grandparents have a house out there. I haven't done much looking but it's a definite possibility location wise.

For those who want pics of Portland urban, this thread is on top of it, although having larger groups in that setting get tricky

I'm down, check out the page on facebook for more urban spots in Maine. It would be good if one person acted as a guide each day, someone who knows the area. For example if were up around Sunday River/Bethel someone from the area could lead us around, or another day someone from Portland, farmington, etc.

I would be more than happy to act as a "guide" for the farmington area, anyone whos up at saddleback/sugarloaf during the day could session some stuff in town at night. Idk, just a thtought.

I don't have a facebook so I can't share this link, but I checked out the page and there's some really cool looking features scattered around the state. If I start a cult for this, can someone get the link to the facebook page so we can be organized and official?

There's a quad kink by the lodge at the Camden Snow bowl, Here's a shitty screencap from somebody's edit from it. I'll get some better photos today but it looks pretty fun/challenging.
