Weekly Sundown Night Skiing Gathering?

Greg · May 17, 2006

It seems there are a lot of folks planning to hit the mighty Sundown next season. 2knees and I were chatting via PM about maybe setting up a designated weeknight to ski the mountain next season. Might be cool to have an AZ gathering each week over there...

bvibert · May 17, 2006

You know I'm down for something. It'll depend on my work schedule though..

ALLSKIING · May 17, 2006

I would not be able to make it week to week but I'm sure a few night out of the season I could.

Nice. Glad to hear you're gonna make the trip down every week, Bob!

Vortex · May 17, 2006

Greg I'll make as many trips as you did up with us

.:beer:

As for B--- Busting Tree_skier myself and Chile had 1.5 hour rides at least one way. Must just be NH is the best.:lol: Seriously. The night out is such a cool thing. You get more fresh snow chances that way. :snow:

Every weekend was a 3 day ski weekend. Just had to make a pit stop at work on Monday

We are going up to look at houses this weekend, and I think the commute to ski at Sundown/Mohawk will be one of the deciding factors in a home site.

Count me in for next season for sure. As it stands right now the new office is only 21 miles from Sundown. :spin:

good thing about sundown is that they sell their half day tickets in a 4 hour or 2 hour block so you can skip out of work early, buy a 2 hour ticket and still be home for dinner. a quickie, so to speak.

actually i went before work one morning also. very convenient.

bvibert · May 18, 2006

FYI, I think those 2 hours deals are only available mid-week. I should also point out the 2 hour tickets are a result of the ticket scanning that everyone hates so much, they would have never done that before the scanners came along..

Greg · May 18, 2006

I have no problem with scanning...provided several chairs aren't skipped in the process...

When I told my wife how close Ski Sundown was to our new office, was she gave me quite a disdainfull look, you guys are not helping.

:flame: :uzi: :smash: 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

Greg · May 19, 2006

Cool. Looks like we might be able to get a small group going this year! B - we'll get you mastering those bumps in no time!

ALLSKIING · May 19, 2006

What are the times for this any idea yet? That makes a big difference on how many times I could go.

2knees · May 19, 2006

The place is small enough and so centrally setup that you almost invariably are going to run into one another at one point. Figuratively speaking. I tend to get there around 7/7:30 and go until closing. But as we get closer to the season we could always setup a meeting time. If we were to say something like 8:00 pm at the sundeck, that gives the early and late arrivals time to gather themselves. just a thought.

Early works best for me. I would most likely have to leave by 8.

2knees · May 19, 2006

it'll work out im sure. i, for one, am pretty flexible on timing. Last season i would go home first and get hit with, "honey, could you just......." before getting out the door again.

No kidding.

Maybe check in for a few minutes at the sundeck at the top of each hour? If the bumps are set up on Nor'easter, Pat and I will be easy to find... :spread:

Same here. It'll probably be easier for me to get out once my daughter has gone to sleep around 6:30/7. I'm sure I could make it out a few times earlier than that though.

So....so far the potential Sundown crew is:

Greg
bvibert
ALLSKIING
2knees
loafer89

Any others? Beano? Catul?

Grassi21? I think you said you'll be hitting Sundown a lot next season.
