Be thankful for that, they hate people (except themselves of course) and think we're all a scourge on the planet.

I never skied Highmount, but even with it included (judging from the pictures I see posted here in links) it doesnt seem like it would be better than Plattekill. I'd let other people guinea pig it...

Great; I "highly dispute" your highly disputing. As I've said before, they've definitely improved since I lived up there, no question about it and I'll give credit where credit is due, but they're...

My comment wasn't about questioning his judgement, my comment was about the conflicting nature of what the article seems to state about how those people work, and what the public at large is told is...

That really was a great video, and I agree that it's annoying when people dont put the glade's/run's name on it.

This also made me realize that there's still a glade at Jay Peak that I've NEVER...

If I were younger and single and the only way I could ski Jay peak was a 4am bus departure where I slept on the bus, I'd do it.

Also, I'm still wondering if any AZBoard member was murdered as a...

See the WWF-VT post.

IMO, Jay Peak still retains the rep of being one of the more.........shall I say......... "snowtimistic" of the ski resorts. To their detriment IMO. It's not 1987 anymore,...

Wait, avalanche experts and forecasters tend to "work alone"?

Huh?

I thought rule #1 is to "never ski alone" in avalanche country. So..... WTH?

Pond hockey is one of those things from childhood that I miss most.

Was driving though what I think was Fletcher, VT a few months ago and saw a huge coyotee swinging from a tree in a front yard.

They've made a comeback in New Jersey too. They were extinct here...

I kind of feel the above way too, but my 2012/13 ski season ended at Jay on Friday. Cant justify that long of a drive again for what probably wont be the most optimal conditions and/or taking the...

Neither does this non-casual skier, but I'll do it if I absolutely have to (operative word being "absolutely").

I skied Jay last Thursday and Friday and thought it was awesome, especially given it was April. On Thursday the woods were all great, but it got warm that day and then cold at night, so Friday the...

"He's got that really young mentality"

TRANSLATION: He's so young and stupid that he feels invincible and doesnt realize life can (and does) end.

It does seem obvious. Catskills are great for this too.

The simple solution to this if this trend continues and it becomes problematic with the crowding, is to simply increase lift ticket prices. They'll make up the $ in the higher prices what they'll...

Conditions are absolutely fantastic today. Feels more like late February.

I'll be skiing Jay tomorrow if the weather holds, and I certainly won't be venturing into the woods off Green Beret.

I'm already in love.

Though it technically could be done, I'd be pretty irate if they blew snow in the glades. I'd rather it be closed.

The skiridefree gas BOGOs only work at Gore on Thursdays (uber lame on their part) so you aren't missing Out.

Smuggler's Notch

Until the largely artificial inorganic growth spurred by EB-5 dollars allows them to buy Smuggs too. I'll give it 8 to 10 years. By which time, the unintended negative...

How could there not be. Alcohol is one of the highest margin things you can sell, and how could you have a ski lodge/hotel without a cool bar/lounge to hang out in. The (ski) natives would riot...

I'd be completely fine with Pepsi if it got ".cola" or ".soda" as well.
