My wife was just talking to me the other night about taking a trip up to NH. Maybe I can arrange it to coincide with an AZ gathering! :beer:

I probably will host a small party apres ski for those who come. I am 25 min south of here off 93.

I was thinking a Friday or Sat. Friday would be better for me.

Edit



After a few Pm's I was thinking the 2nd or 3rd Friday in March or a Sat Before that. That will give enough time for a storm to show up. We did it mid Feb last year and were fine, but really waited until we were sure about the conditions.

I'd like to ski Cannon so I'll see what I can do. The first weekend of March is not good for me, the following weekends/ Fridays are good.

One thing to think about: 2 for 1 tix tue/thur (as well as Superbowl Sunday), Wed is $20 for NH residents. Or save $10 with a pass from another area valid any day.

Being the cheap bastid I am I vote for Wed. ;)

I'd be down for a Cannon outting again. It's an easy drive for me. I'd prefer weekend though. A weekend and snow. That would be best.

And AndyZ has to be there to film me again, otherwise, I'd be disappointed.

March works best for me. I would prefer a Friday, but could do a Sat. I would have to drop my son off at Loon for 8 on Sat and Sundays.Comp program.
I could be in the lot by 8.30. March 10th sounds ok to me. Pipe in. March 9th would be more fun, cause I would be skiing on a work day. I would only take a vacation day if it were a Friday.

Thankx for the Good news TB:flag: . I'm kind of set on the 9th or Tenth know. Trying to work around Dave's Mt Snow outing. I'll leave it up to the Gang to decide Friday or Sat. And no freeking Polls. I'll go by post and explanations. A poll lets those vote, who probably won't even show up. Ya:roll: :flame: :uzi: :smash: ;-)

The 9th would work for me also cause I am on vacation that week. Should be around as far as I know. I will be skiing somewhere all week so can adjust plans acordingly. Can we get a group rate? Will have to do lift lagers for sure. :beer:

Would have to be a Saturday for me, I'm planning on Utah 2/22-3/3, but could pass that up for another Cannon outing. Yeah right. :razz: But any Saturday in March should be good.

You ever gonna make it up to Maine Brian? The temps up here have dropped down and snowmaking at both Sugarloaf and Sunday River is non-stop these days. The River has blown a ton of it, they have most of the ASC guns..

Thanks for the recommendation. Things are still very much up in the air right now. It probably wouldn't be until late Feb at the earliest that we'd get up there, so who knows what the conditions will be like by then... My wife (who is pregnant and isn't skiing this year) has an attachment the White Mountains, particularly the Lincoln/North Woodstock area. So I'd have to be able to keep her happy. Last time we did a trip like this (last time she was prego) she drove over to North Conway to do a bit of shopping while I skied Cannon. The next day I don't think she was able to keep herself quite as occupied, she was pretty anxious for me to finish up skiing at Loon. ;)
