My one issue with the magic change is that we took a poll and Mt snow had the most votes. I am sure some made plans for the trip. As I said before I don't want to stand in the way of a powder day but for future polls on other AZ trips or AZ trips in general this might not be a good thing.

As I said in an earlier post, I'm with the majority. It appears that most of the people I have yet to meet are still planning on Snow. No offense to the AZers that I've skied with, but I would like to meet some new peeps.

I'm with Dave, and can't be impartial here.

If I put together an event and it ended up being somewhere else. I would be hurt a bit (Ya wimpy). The events involve alot of effort sometimes money, vacation time. as well. If you want another mountain. Try another day if you can. I understand the Powder urge. Just do it a MT snow.

2knees.... pop into the cannon file. Aw you gave out fee tickets before. Aw your cool, but nice the way you handled it. I also wrote my post and never sent it until after all you guys chimes in. Got stuck in a meeting. So the apolgy comes from me as well.

Not a shot at anyone. Just alot of behind the scenes stuff goes on. Dave has put alot of effort in. That was all. hope the snow is perfect.

Here's my take. Magic is the mountain of the opportunist. If there's a powder day there (or leftovers) and you really want to ski Magic when it's good, you gotta go when you get the opportunity especially in a season like this one. I certainly don't fault Pat for suggesting it.

I've also organized a gathering this year (Hunter - 12/15) and I know how stressful it can be to line everything up so I can understand Dave's frustration a bit. Bottom line is I can understand both sides.

I'm sticking with Snow for a few reasons...

I'm sorry too allskiing. Got caught up in that powder frenzy. Someone said Magic and I freaked.............Mt. Snow will be a blast Friday. Besides, the old double in Londonderry is a long lift ride at five degrees and windy.......................although well protected by the trees. See you Friday.
