Getting In Touch With Your Inner Gaper

[highpeaksdrifter]

No matter how many times I’ve been to the summit of Whiteface, sometimes I still just stand for a while and take in the view and am in awe of the beauty of it and how high I am above the base below.

What do you still gape at?

Too many things to list. The day I run out of things to gape at is the day I check out. Our new addition to the family will give me something to gape at for the rest of my life.....










And I hear the view of Sugarbush when you come around the bend is amazing. Looking forward to seeing it for the first time in person this season.

My wife.

 

[Grassi21]

My wife.

I second that. But not your wife, mine. I don't need to get shoved off the lift at Hunter this season. ;-)

 

[hammer]

Lots of things...here is a partial list

• My family
• Getting out of the car when I arrive at the ski area
• Each time I get off of the lift and check the view

Also a partial list:

My family.
The mountain from the parking lot when I get there.
Snowmaking guns at work.

 

[SkiDog]

I gape out my back deck daily and am in awe of the canyon that I now live on....

LCC rules..

Oh and my wife too ;-)

I gape at people while on the chair. I really like to watch all the different kinds of turns that tkae place on a ski hill. As long as people are having fun, those are the ones I like to watch.

Yeah, Lincoln Peak looks pretty cool once you get near the Paradise Deli; the Mall and Stein's looks particularly forboding. Mount Ellen looks great from Route 17 but overall, I don't think of Sugarbush as being one of the "wow" ski areas as you approach it. Sugarloaf/USA from "Oh My God" turn on Route 27 on the other hand...

You will never forget that one.

I still get an incredible level of anxiety and anticipation on my way to the mountain; regardless of whether I'm hitting MRG on a powder day or just heading over to the local haunt for some night skiing. That's a tad gaperish.

I had my Sugars mixed up. That's the one.:-o:-o

You planning on hitting the Loaf this season?

 

[Grassi21]

You planning on hitting the Loaf this season?

Bush definitely. The Loaf would take some convincing.... the wife not me.

 

[Greg]

Bush definitely.

Cool. Cool. Plenty of things to gape at there...

 

[riverc0il]

You will never forget that one.

And even if you could forget, Greg would keep reminding you by posting those pictures in threads at least two times per month.

 

[Marc]

Cows.

I'll have to quote this from a friend of mine (since I've only been to 'Loaf):

"A day at the 'loaf is worth 2 at the 'bush"

That's it. I'm hitting the ban button...

 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Here are some things I gape over..

Fresh Poe, Lone Peak at Big Sky, Spring Bumps at Belleayre, Experts only sign, and Grand Targhee

 

[sledhaulingmedic]

There's a few, but these always do it for me:

 

[Marc]

Wow, I need to get to Tuck's when more than 2/3's of Left Gulley is skiable.
