New Member in Woodstock, CT

New member in Woodstock, CT. I'm all about hiking, trail running, skiing, climbing/mountaineering (rock and ice), cycling (road), and disc golf. Right now I'm working on training for a charity ride in August, probably the 50 miler, maybe longer depending on how things go. I'm just working on building up a base right now, taking in the scenery, and having fun. You know, staying in it for the long haul. I do this stuff for health and enjoyment, no false hopes about entering the Tour. It would be great to touch bases with some locals who feel the same way or who enjoy the other activities listed above.

Hi all,
Finally decided to join after lurking for too many years. Great site that has alot of info and humor! Brief history, I'm 52, from the Ocean state, and have been skiing since my folks started me in ski school at grade 4. Long time pass holder at Sunday River (home mountain)have skied out West in 3 different states totaling 16 different areas. Have also visited Canada and skied 3 areas. Gotta say I love Utah the most though!

Howdy all!

I'm new here, hailing from the UK. I'm spending a few weeks around the white mountains national forest in new hampshire, plus a couple of other areas this summer, so I thought...why not join this fine forum!

Cool, welcome to the forum! When are you traveling, what do you have planned? Need any tips or suggestions?

Hi Nick!

At the moment we just plan to trek around, camping as we go...just enjoying the amazing views! Any recommended spots would be appreciated for sure!

Thanks,

For some reason I couldn't get a post to stick in the Skiing on the Cheap thread, so I'll post a comment here.

Long time lurker. I mentioned the AlpineZone Skiing-on-the-Cheap thread in an article published recently on Epicski:
http://www.epicski.com/a/how-to-do-a-really-cheap-ski-trip
It's the least I could do since I stole a lot of ideas from you guys.
Keep up the legendary tightwaudacity. :)

Hey guys, I am the Boston Bulldog. As a few of you know, I am from south of Boston and am a longtime Sunapee skier. I currently am a Junior at Bowdoin so that means one great college pass to Sunday River, saddleback and the Loaf.

Welcome, again! The college passes are sweet! We have a lot of SR , Lpon, and Sugarloaf skiers on the board here
