Hey, if you folks don't mind let me know how the conditions are there. Curious to know if the place has changed or not. New management was put in this year wondering if it is any different. Thanks.

Definitely will pick you up on the way wa-loaf.
Maybe I will go even if they don't open all the goods. Would be a good time skiing with you guys no matter what. I'm sure I'll be dragging a couple friends along with wa-loaf. We'll see what happens in the next couple weeks, it's penciled in for now!

I'm tentatively in as well. My current plan is to make a loop to Ascutney on Saturday and then MRG on Sunday to use the last of my free tickets. Hope to see you guys there...

Cool, this might be a little Hunter reunion.

I've been there twice this year(and ever), few discounted tix.... I hit the double blacks early season, I stayed on top with my board, my friend hit rocks on ski's.... still managed a few dings, but worth it on the old board.

I came back over MLK, they weren't even open to the top. We should have gone somewhere else. I thought the website just hadn't been updated, but actually they just didn't have anything open they were off loading the main lift at the mid-way station.

If the double blacks are opened, that means they have good natural coverage, and go for it... If not, I'd use your other vouchers and coupons before giving Ascutney a go. Or if you have old beater ski's/boards around, do some hiking if needed & rip it up.

Lots of tentatives...Who is def up for this? Tim and I are planning on it.

wa-loaf · Mar 3, 2008, 10:43 AM

Still in, bringing at least one, possibly two non-AZers.

MRGisevil · Mar 3, 2008, 10:47 AM

Nice! Tim, you should try and drag Nelson out.

ta&idaho · Mar 3, 2008, 11:15 AM

I'm in, and I'll probably be driving up with a non-AZ buddy.

I'll be day tripping Saturday. Might as well be Ascutney! Should have some laughs skiing with this gang! Probably solo but could have a friend in tow. Hopefully the snow holds up this week! Was in great shape yesterday!

Still tentative.

I don't make solid commitments, last time I did that, I wound-up married...
