I think it would be fun to ski in a group with everyone in the group wearing front and rear facing cameras and then edit all that together. No limitation on your skiing because you are holding a pole out to front or side. Would require investment and a group of like minded/similar ability ski...

My wife and I will be in the valley from the 9th to the 23rd and some new to the valley friends of ours are coming with us. Keep us posted on ticket deals, gatherings. Booked the lodging 6 months ago.

Don't have any trip horror stories, more like rituals. Going from Bethlehem PA to VT - 78/287/87/149/4 and then various ways up to SB or Stowe/Jay. Always stop at a great bakery in town to get powdered donuts. Hit the 2nd rest stop on 87 to let the coffee out. Stop at outlets at exit 20. Meet...

Nobody wants a repeat of last October for VT this year. Hurricane Sandy looks to be setting up to phase with a low pressure system coming out of the west and land around Cape May NJ. High winds, 5-12 inches of rain, coastal flooding. Snow in WV/Central PA etc. How does this storm ride further...

Still another point (sorry, alot of coffee this morning).... Sugarbush's Terrain Park stuff is over at Mount Ellen. I know there are a few things over on Slowpoke but it doesn't even count. I'm 50, I don't do much Park/Pipe but it's something to consider in today's ski/ride marketplace. With a...

One more thing. The Valley House. I've been coming up for 15 years. Haven't spent any time at the Valley House. IF SB gets more snowmaking and any trail expansion and if that pays off in more skier visits, then breakfast/lunch and beers capacity needs to grow too. Valley Double chair (and that...

I think Win has done a great job so far executing on his plans for Sugarbush. I like the new lodge and base area. Rice Brook looks like it's finally moving forward and I think that's a good thing too. However, plans aren't written in tablets of stone and need to be dynamic to be adjusted by...

I'm 25 min from Blue, 55 min from Camelback and a bit more to Elk. For skiing I like Elk the most, then Blue, then Camelback. For bars, I like Camelback outdoors and then Elk. Upper lodge at Blue is now beautiful but I don't get over to that part of the hill and park down at the lower lodge...

Effects of Jay/Burke on Sugarbush/Stowe/Smuggs....... Development like this will pull skiers from other mountains. Are they targeting Boston and Montreal? How will Sugarbush counter? What's their next move? More snowmaking? Some sort of base development over at Mount Ellen? Phase 2 speedup at...

Hey that's really cool. Good for MRG!

From Win's Word at Sugarbush - Joint College Pass w MRG - wish I was in my 20's! "In just a few weeks, we will be marketing 2012/13 season passes at our early-season rates (these rates are good until September 12th). This year, we are teaming up with Mad River Glen to offer a joint College Pass...

TS01 - I will check out the Ladies MRG program. We will be there that week. I will also check out the Tele for myself. That is a good idea to give myself something else to work on while skiing with her. She actually had a great time at MRG 2 years back in the AM and I skied all the trails and...

I will check the date on this year's clinic at SB as we might likely be there that week. More thoughts tonight as I gotta go do some work but thanks for chiming in. I like the picture. I like Birch as a first run ripping the cord as it glistens in the sun like diamonds.

Before I get in trouble here, I'm just describing my situation and wondering if other husband/wife ski teams have a similar issue. Not saying the girls can't ski... I'm turning 50 in a couple of days. Wife beat my there by a few weeks. We have both been skiing for 30 years. Some years more than...

If you think rain is just immature snow then this might be of interest. My job is outdoor movie events and as such, we are subject to the weather. These might be of interest to you in making winter ski days better. I am not affiliated with them other than I have used their services in the past...

Hey Bill, Sure happy to share what I gleaned. I was looking specifically for Sugarbush, MRG and Stowe stuff so that's what I pulled. Watch The Clymb for Geigerig Pack special - free SB and BOBO for Hunter Stowe Club Days - joined ACE, thanks again Bill Descente Passport - look at the jackets...

I just read ALL of last year's Skiing on the Cheap posts. Wrote down a bunch of what seemed like it might be back and some pricing to remember on deals. Will be looking for certain stuff again this year. Great stuff! Great Thread. Thanks Bill. My question today is about season passholders...

We worship Ullr here at Stoketoberfest. Oct 21-22 would be a good time here in Bethlehem with a couple of this year's ski films and then tipping a few back with skiing/riding brothers and sisters at Bethlehem BrewWorks. www.moviesgamesnmore.org Ullr was in our poster last year and we should...
