Thetrailboss nice linc that was motivating. Your old small area opened also. Can't wait for this trip to put a few names to faces.

Thanks Bob. It is a nice pic...we did visit the Lyndon Outing Club where the old rope tow was spinning! Snow looked a bit thin on their slope and the T-Bar was broken (at least they were trying to fix it). Brought back old memories to see the lights on the slope on Friday night (reminscent sigh) :wink: Wish I was back up there.

Rivercoil and Ski_resort observer...PLEASE come! It's looking like we might be using the coupons and skiing together. TB here can show you some stuff for the first few runs and then you can either tag along or go off on your own. East Bowl...Willoughby...the steeps of Doug's Drop (love that name!)

ThetrailBoss, Do we pair ourselves up with the coupons or can you help with this? I'll be on vacation the week before this trip. I did the math with a coupon its like $35 and change per person. If anyone needs a coupon I have 1 from the globe a couple of weeks ago, plus The one I downloaded off the site.

Good question. At this point I'm waiting to hear what Greg is able to do with the mtn. :wink:

I count seven needing advanced tickets now. I contacted the mountain asking if there was anything we could do here...

I pinged David from Burke again. He's usually very responsive to Email, but I'll call if I don't hear back by tomorrow. trailboss - what's that Burke 2 for 1 deal you mentioned to me at the Beast? That may be the best option.

Well, there are two promos.

One is buy one get one 50 percent off (which was what I was saying)

The other is a coupon from The Entertainment Book which is a "buy one get one free" deal.

Cool. You may want to make arrangements now to use one of these in the event the they can't offer any type of group rate.

David Emailed me back and suggested using the buy one get one 50% off online deal. It amounts to a 25% savings per ticket, but you'll need an even number of folks needing tickets to maximize the savings.
