| Yeah - lots of options. Need something centrally located, so I opted for Sunapee, and of course, I'm the only one to vote for it. I like the idea of a north and south gathering. Personally, I wanna go to Wildcat, so that's my 2 cents for the northern location. As for south, Mt. Snow would be fine, or perhaps Hunter or Jiminy to include our bretheren from upstate NY and NYC metro. Let's target the week after MLK day and the weekend after the Super Bowl in early Feb...... What we need is discount tickets for the group and a discount on lodging cuz AZ.com is coming to town. I am willing to make some phone calls if need be, Mr. Blasko........ CM |

| I did not see this poll until 12-14, I was away. It is possible others did not either. Give it a few more days. MLK is a bad weekend to pull anyone who works at a ski area away. It is also a weekend that is quite busy for ski areas...it may not be the best choice.

| I just saw this as well. Alot of Asc and Threedom passes. I think if 1 of those mtns are chosen attendance would increase. A friday of Monday would be great to extend the weekend. Less crowds. I would use a days vacation for something like that.

| Why go to Attitash and fight the crowds for ice, ice, and more ice when you can ski at BURKE!  Great to see Burke lead the pack in voting!

| hmmm.. Bretton Woods didn't make the list.  I skiied at Snow once. Must have been a bad day cause we call it Mt. Ice now. There was no snow to speak of. Bitterly cold and all ice sheets. -Stephen |

| FWIW Telegirl, Burke is not much further than BW and has better terrain, less crowds, and about the same vert as Wildcat (2000). Give it a try if you get a chance

| Well... If you're going to support those of us in the NY area, I'd be happy with going to Mt. Snow. Close enough to get there but not too far to make it difficult. I don't vote for Hunter if it's on a weekend, however, too crowded there.
