My wife and I made the mistake of going back to the hotel room after skiing (we stopped a bit early). It took us a bit to work up the motivation to leave the room (and the building - since there was a restaurant and bar downstairs!), so by the time we got there, it had died down quite a bit. Next time we will head right to the party after skiing!

For sure. We're actually big fans of the Vermont mountains- Mt Snow, Okemo, Stratton, Stowe... we don't mind a bit of a drive (though the Loaf was probably too far of a trek to go more than once a year).

Sorry we didn't get to meet you this weekend!




Awesome :)

Hope you guys stick around the forum. The Summit is our big annual event but I'm working to bring more AZ gatherings across the Northeast for next year. And hopefull an out-west trip as well. I'm sure NY'ers would appreciate an AZ gathering somewhere in the Catskills or Adirondacks.

Look fwd to hearing about this---love SL and the set up is just about perfect for this type of wknd but would be cool to see what could be done someplace else in addition to the Loaf wknd!
My wife and I were actually discussing this on the ride home yesterday---even when SL doesn't have epic conditions it still delivers a ton of fun due to the apres, lodging, access standpoint.
Thinking of other places in New England that could work: Jay, Stratton, Killington (thinking from the perspective of park the car Friday and dont need it again until Sunday)

Sugarbush, too. If the lifts are running, that is...!

Stowe - if they would allow our kind of riff-raff!

It was cold, so I admit to not taking the camera out much, but I'll get things started with I have and steal some from friends:

It's too bad that I missed out on the fun (family commitments) but I'm getting ready to visit Sugarloaf this coming weekend and stay there for one week - Mass School Vacation week. I am looking forward to skiing my favorite mountain.
Perhaps I'll be to join the group next year.

Sugarloaf has done great and Bigelow would have been just as good if not better. Between Sugarloaf, Saddleback, and Bigelow it would have been quite the trio.

You could build one hell of an interconnect between Sugarloaf and Saddleback.
