Have you been? I've never been and would be happy to give it shot, even though I have to go through Vermont to get there. Especially with a free ticket!

Save it for the spring when you can ski the slides.

The slides are open like 2 out of 10 seasons..I'd rather spend the spring at Stowe where it's 100%..I'm not accepting any gifts from HPT..but he'll be eating crow for breakfast..lol

How about another poll: what percentage of skiers are still posting regularly on ski discussion boards when it's late April and the temps have already gone beyond 80?

I've tried to let these Whiteface shots go but it's just not in me.

In another thread he said he was there, but he thought the Summit Chair went to the true summit of WF which it does not. That's something anyone who skied it could not help but know.

I called him on it and he had no answer.

There are more then 4 trails off the summit of WF, plus the summit of Little WF is 2540 ft. of vert so what's the problem?

The Slides are open every season in the late season.

I've comped AZers before and will do so again. I thought it might be a fun bet if I threw that in the pot and see what he came back with.

I don't care where anyone skis, but IMO he was ungracious in his responses to what I though was a generous offer.

I've tried to give this guy the benefit of the doubt, but I now think GSS = No Class.

You just don’t get it. When someone offers a person something they don’t want they usually find a polite way to say thanks, but no thanks. Not no it’s not good enough for me and heres why.

I started this thread and bet cause I use to feel sorry for you sometimes when you got treated like the forum idiot even though you usually brought it on yourself. I won’t make that mistake again.
