What the Hell, never skied in October before, might as well take advantage of the opportunity. Anyone else going to be there?

I am considering it.

Do it, bring a Sherpa, could be useful on the Stairway To Heaven. I'm thinking of booting up at the end of the stairway, the walk down isn't bad, but IIRC the hike up in ski boots sucks. Unfortunately I'm not getting any younger, or thinner.

Isnt the hike up like a right of passage to ski in october??? I think it builds the stoke .. But i can see as the years go by it could be a deterrent

Yeah, last year I packed a lunch and left it in the lodge, it became dinner, as I wasn't about to go back down during the day. I am old, and fat, with many bad parts.

I'm tempted to bag a day for tomorrow too...

Not an express card holder though so $49 is a little steep

2 for 1 vouchers from K bring it to $24.50. Powhunter, check ur PM's, sent you my # if you'd like to share some turns.

He's serious, he was going to drive to Sunday River if K didn't open. It is a 15 hr round trip, and I thought I'm nuts. Hey, maybe you can ski the stairway.
