    Seasonal Rental

    When we rented the dog limited us to 10% of all rental properties. With a dog act fast if you like something. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Best Base Area Bars

    90% of the time if I crack a beer my boots are off. I just don’t enjoy skiing/riding while or after drinking. It’s a self set rule I’ve pretty much always followed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Best Base Area Bars

    The best base area bar for me is the trunk of my car. Much better beer, I control the tunes and there are usually a few like minded people in the lot to socialize with. Although Tom’s Loft does get a vote from me. Love that place. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Killington

    Thanks. Looks like Long Trail Pub at the base and Dominic’s it is for apres and pizza. I do need to make my annual trip to the actual Long Trail Brewery for some Jordon Wings.....maybe a detour on the way home. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Do you keep track of # of days...

    I used to track days when we were “all in” as a family. The past few years other activities have reduced our days on the hill, as a result I don’t count anymore because I don’t want to know, or admit defeat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Killington

    What is the apres scene like at Killington these days? It’s been awhile. I’m not talking pickle barrel or wobbly, but on mountain/base apres? Headed up with a few families and I’d like to have an idea where to go. Also what is the best spot for takeout pizza? As far as skiing can’t wait to...

    VT crowds Saturday 4/7?

    How much $ does a typical festival goer actually pump back into to area? Especially the type described above. I would guess it would be more along the lines of bring as much booze/drugs as you can up with you and just get annihilated at the 3 bedroom condo that sleeps 8 that you rented and are...

    Why do people stop skiing for the season?

    Life gets in the way. If you have kids involved in sports other than skiing the end of ski season comes real quick. Competitive Soccer and Lax is in full swing. My kids had soccer tournaments 3 out of the 4 weekends in March. We were lucky to get up this past weekend to end the season...

    Are you at..where you want to be

    Mid 40’s former skier turned snowboarder, been boarding for 20+ years. Skied intermittently over the past 5 years, like 1-2 days a season to show the kids and friends I still can do it. Over the past few years I have definitely scaled back on risks, I just can’t save myself from mistakes like...

    Need some Okemo info

    Best bet for terrain will be Jackson Gore. White Lightning and Rolling Thunder are good trails. Supernova and Blackhole are good glades, Blackhole probably the better of the 2. South Face has some good trails for cruising and Under the top of the South Face lift is nice and dumps into Double...

    Seasonal Rental

    We rented seasonally for a few years. We went through local agents. Probably could have saved a grand or so by going Craigslist route but the agents had multiple units we looked at over the course of a day rather than dealing with a landlord directly and hoping to set up a few viewings in the...
