The welcome and apres parties are a good time (i've seen some Widowmaker pics from last year's apres party floating around the forum :beer, and the lodging package we've put together is a pretty screamin deal (it works out to just 99 bucks total for 2 nights lodging and 2 days skiing if you fill your condo).

Indeed. A hundred bucks for skiing AND lodging for two days! It's almost FREE.

If the snow is good, the Bracket Basin tour will be awesome for you guys as well. We have a couple of the patrollers who are on the glade cutting crew scheduled to show you guys around in there. If there's anyone who knows where the best lines are, it's definitely the guys who cut them.

That is going to be fantastic. Praying for snow, or at least skiable conditions.

Thanks guys!

If you have any questions about the weekend or about Sugarloaf in general, feel free to give me a shout. Ethan

I'm coming up this Fri for the weekend, and I'm really excited for my first trip to Sugarloaf.

Can you make sure the rain stays away? Thanks.

Call Center reports we're up to 40.

Tentative for a Saturday day trip. Optioning for Friday or Sunday if a storm lands on another day. Not doing the weekend package.

I would have (and had already taken Friday off back when this was first announced), but I still have a TON of vouchers I need to use up this season (including a Loaf voucher, bam!) so I'll be else where on Friday and Sunday. I can't take the double whammy of not using vouchers and paying more money. I'll plan better next season!

Didn't you ever take an econ class...? Can't allow a sunk cost to affect future investments! :beer:

(I've still got a couple skiVT tix to use, plus a black voucher, and of course the Magic pass and crotched pass - crap I only went to the crotch once so far... dammit!)

It is not a sunk cost if I am still out there having fun.

Did roark tell you what we're paying for the condo?

I am aware of the two night two ticket package being $99/pp. It breaks down like this: If I ski Fri-Sun at the Loaf and don't use my vouchers else where, it nearly doubles the price because at this point with so few days left, my vouchers are "use em or loose em" every weekend.

Hi all,

Just wanted to pop into this thread and say hello. We had a great time with all of you guys at last year's Summit and we're looking forward to this year's.

The welcome and apres parties are a good time (i've seen some Widowmaker pics from last year's apres party floating around the forum :beer, and the lodging package we've put together is a pretty screamin deal (it works out to just 99 bucks total for 2 nights lodging and 2 days skiing if you fill your condo).

Hope to see a lot of you here again this year and meet a bunch of new folks as well. If you have any questions about the weekend or about Sugarloaf in general, feel free to give me a shout.

Ethan

^ Thanks for putting this together, Ethan. I'm looking forward to it -- especially the guided tour of Brackett Basin. Regardless of conditions, it's always a good day at the Loaf!

Yeah bad because I am missing Sugarloaf and skiing for a work related commitment that has come up, but good news in the sense that it is a special one-week Trial Lawyer Academy that the NY Bar Association is doing at Cornell Law School so that will help me be able to advance in life to be able to ski more some day. I can't complain...30 days so far this season. Life is good. :spin:

Big bummer. You and the lady will be missed.

Bummer TB, but I think that passes as an excuse.

Very jealous of all who are going to attend this event. Would love to go a meet up with some truely hot skiers and boarders and get some turns in. Unfortunately being stuck down here in NNJ makes Sugarloaf a true haul and going to Utah the following week means a no go for me. I know Sugarloaf is an great place and it looks like a great deal for the group but I hope in the future AZ might decide to try someplace in Vermont. Would love to attend one of these events but Maine is just too far for me being located down here west of NYC (and west of the Hudson River). Have fun all of you who attend.
