if the mountain's on wind hold saddleback is sometimes an option though a windy one.. it's close and a beautiful drive.

 

[Terry]

Sorry had to bail. Got 7 inches here already that skied awesome all day. The wind worried me and the Peak never has wind holds. Will hit Shawnee Peak for some epic snow this weekend and stay close to home as well. Hope to meet up with you guys some other time!

hey so i am coming at this a little late in the game i have posted my five posts and need to register but am a little lost i have friends up there that are already on the list..how do i get in on this?

 

[Conrad]

So I'll be lurking around Sugarloaf on Sunday, but I will be with some friends and family so I probably won't be able say hello to fellow AZr's. If it was just me, I would come up tomorrow and hope for a t-bar/SuperQuad powder day and seek everyone out to say hello, but that is not the case.

 

[Nick]

Keep an eye out for AZ stickers on helmets and skis!

Is there some sort of meet and greet tonight? I'm here and didn't receive anything special from the front desk. Is all the info in the first post?

 

[Skimaine]

Are there credentials for access to the après party on Saturday?

 

[Nick]

Nope, just your forum name

 

[conwayeast]

Anybody who missed this trip definitely blew it, and first tracks Sunday was absolutely incredible.

^Nice meeting you this weekend! It was a great time!

Some pics, all from Sunday because Saturday was too damn cold / windy to break out the camera, although I do have gopro footage.
