I spent a day hiking around northstar. It looks pretty flat to me....maybe not as bad as it's hyped to be.


Sugar Bowl looks pretty good....

Northstar is apparently the place the Jibhonks like the best...one PASR is out there now living the dream..I think in Truckee..

I might hit up Mountain Creek this season...it's probably a little like Blue mountain..lots of SPORES..definitely sometime when I am in the Newton area..

I won a bona-fide 3-day, 4-night ski trip for two this next season out west, from a bona-fide ski operator. Anybody want to be my friend now?

just made the arrangements for the x-mas family ski trip this winter....and it's someplace new. will be heading to Les Carroz d'Arâches in the french alps, between geneva and chamonix. family friendly, small, relaxed, with tons of activities for the kids and an authentic village for the wife, while also being part of the giant Grand Massif ski domain.

You'll have a great time. Don't miss a visit to Samoens, perhaps for dinner (great restaurants). Another highlight is the Cascade trail http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Massif#Classic_cascades_run including the refuge lunch which involves a ride up via snowmobile - they drag you behind it with ropes, like waterskiing - hysterically fun!

Sure do.

I plan on getting to Shawnee Peak a few times this year since it's super close now. Also will try and get to Wildcat and Cannon a few times.

Not new but I really think I'll be up at Saddleback quite a bit this year.....if the wife will go for it anyway, but hey, at least she can't complain about the cost....that place is CHEAP.

Planning to try Magic in southern Vermont at least 1 day this year. Since I live in NC, I might actually try Beech and Sugar for the first time ... if you call those mountains!

Wow... this is kinda like keeping ol' GSS alive... mebbe rename it the GSS Memorial Thread!

But on topic, I'm looking forward to Whitefish (TRFKBM - the resort formerly known as Big Mtn), Steamboat, & possibly Winter Park. With any luck, I'll get to Bolton Valley. All this assumes my knees hold out.
