they are not normall dates. one is with a girl that works at alot of the events i do. her friend is opening her new bar and she wanted me to go with her. then i have a blacktie dinner to go to with this other chicky.

i also have a bunch of events this week so i would have enough money to do it next week. plus i would feel so much more relaxed.

Snoseek you gonna hit it?

I'm waiting out for till hopefully friday or saturday at loveland. Less people, double the vert, and I have yet to determine what my second pass (if any) will be. Although A-Basin bonus pass would be pretty sweet, I would really miss Winter Park a lot. Either way I'm pretty psyched for this time of year, like an awakening.

What pass do u have? I had the colorado pass, copper/winter park and the other one which i cant remember the name, Breck/abasin/keystone plus 10 days at vail or beaver creek for 459, i do not think you will find a better deal out there than that

Guys, I'm not gonna lie. The white ribbon of death just simply isn't worth it. It's great for getting the stoke rolling, but it's not worth it. I did that whole thing last year. I was skiing on the 15th. I had a little bit of fun, I guess. But it's just a mess of people everywhere on a strip of less-than-desirable manmade.

Just my .02

Last year i had LL pass and copper/winter park/steamboat. This year I have the loveland pass and am still deciding on the other. Phillps 66 can get me twofer midweek days @ winter park or copper and A-Basin discounts are pretty easy to find. I'm all set with Breck/Keystone for the most part, although keystone at night would be cool and vail/the beav would also. I may just buy a monarch pass to supplement my LL pass to avoid the masses.

I don't know WROD is cool till like 1 or 2 for a day then I would rather swill beer. Even if the travel were free I wouldn't bother just for the hassle of traveling.

The Colorado Pass' tend to break even at skiing 5 days. Last year I skied on my Abasin Bonus pass 13 days. 4 of those days were at Breck and Keystone, who's day ticket was 86.00/day.

I also got buddy tickets for 6 people when they skied with me out there.(Abasin 40/day peak season, 30/day off season for the buddy tickets)

Snoseek. Loveland is opening Wed too. go get some for us, then have an apres' ski on me!
Okay, pretend its on me, for now. I'll treat you when I am out there this winter!
Promise!
