[Hawkshot99]

Before: Usully nothing, maybe a toasted bagel with cream cheese
During: Mile-High-Cheese Fries from Christansons at Jimney.

[skiNEwhere]

before: a muffin
during: anything under 5 dollars at the lounge that can fill me up, and lots of beer on the lifts if im gonna be doing the terrain park (I can do that cuz bear mountain in socal puts trash barrels under the detachable quads so you can throw away your trash while moving!)
after: Doesn't matter, a fulfilling meal, and if it is the last day of a trip, usually a steak

 

[millerm277]

During: Gatorade, maybe some candy or chips.
After: Either a steak or fish is best, but after skiing....as long as it's some type of food, it's good. Sirloin Saloon in Rutland when I'm at K, Red's off 21B on the Thruway if I've been at Hunter or are coming back from K.

During: Mile-High-Cheese Fries from Christansons at Jimney.

That looks rough, but Christiansen's does rule it. They used to have a black and bleu burger; cajun-spiced burger with crumbled bleu cheese on top. That's gone so I just order a cheeseburger with bleu cheese. Yum! Great place.

Poutine at Jay Peak!

I make it a point to try the local brew especially those that have a connection to the ski are I'm at: Jay Peak Tram Ale, Single Chair Ale at MRG or a Tuckerman Pale Ale at Wildcat.

My usual ski breakfast depends on where I'm driving for skiing. If I'm on my way to Maine, it's McD's on Route 1: Sausage McMuffin with Egg, Hash Browns and coffee (the breakfast of champions!). If I'm on my way to Vermont, it's a stop at the Farmer's Diner in Queechee for either the corned beef hash with poached eggs or the Farmer's Breakfast. Great waitstaff too! I'm gonna miss driving to Vermont!

During: Mile-High-Cheese Fries from Christansons at Jimney.

OMG... i just threw up in my mouth.. thats almost worse then my meal in Sweden....

 

[dmc]

I usually jam a bagel down my throut and wash it down with a giant coffee which i finish in the lift line...
Then I MAY stop for lunch.. Get a burger or something.. Maybe some chili...
But generally I push on through lunch... And quit when the light goes flat.. I hate to stop.. Don't like the way I feel after lunch...
then apres ride I get a huge pile of sushi(If I'm at Hunter Mtn) and saki or maybe pizza washed down with a Guiness

 

[snoseek]

italian tuna in olive oil over triscuits (i ate this for maybe 20 ski days straight last winter)
hard boiled eggs on the lift with salt and pepper lifted from the lodge
sometimes a hunk of cheese when i'm rushing out the door
m.r.e- if your connecteed
beer

OMG... i just threw up in my mouth.. thats almost worse then my meal in Sweden....

Every time I order them I hear the same things from people, then they want to try just one, then one more.....

 

[Grassi21]

Before Bagel with cream cheese or a sausage egg and cheese sandwich, and lots of water
During Burger and fries, whichever soup or chili that looks good, or a grilled chicken sandwich, and lots of water.
After Lots more water, Jack and Cokes or beer, if I didn't have that burger at lunch I have it, maybe a steak, a big plate of pasta if I'm lucky enough to be skiing consecutive days, and always some of andyzee's blueberries.

Hosing beers on the lift, maybe not so much.
