Hard to believe it's been 18 days since I ended my ski season. My mind is already starting to drift towards next season. I was cleaning out the garage the other night and it was pretty cool out. With the doors up, it felt very much like fall which had me thinking about 2007-08! Pretty sick, I know... :roll:

Oh, I'm very much looking forward to next season. I've got new boots to try out and I didn't get a chance to ski in April and was stuck reading everyone's awesome trip reports. :cry:

Well I just finished this season up 3 days ago. I think I might make the trip out west next year so I am just kind of starting to look into that.

i have the second day ache from sunday right now. that is reminder enough of ski season.

actually, i'm really bummed out right now. usually i accept the end with no problem but the end was just so damned good this year. I had 2 powder days in april and 2 awesome spring days after that. and superstar has enough snow to last through next weekend. i think thats what is killing me. If it was all burned out with alot of walking, it would be easier to accept but come ON killington. there were so many people there sunday you had to wait in line to hit the good lines.

sorry i'm off topic now.

Been in a funk since my last day on 4/29.

More than most seasons, this one ended really quickly it seemed, probably because of all the great late season snow. So my mind and body are ready to ski alot more, but it isn't going to happen.

Pretty bummed, but I'll get over it.

Still planning on dragging this one out a week or two more with some hiking. Definately looking forward to next year though. Finally had the b-lls to make the move to the River. Took a big step towards feeding my addiction.

I'm looking forward to it but.... both my lax season and the season for the HS team I'm coaching are about to heat up. Not to mention we are expecting our first little skier/lax player at the end of July. So I have plenty of stuff to occupy my thoughts until next season.

My season barely got started, and ended a while ago. On the upside, I'm not coming off an addiction this year.

Put down a deposit on a condo rental in Utah for next year. Yeah, guess I'm thinking about next year, as well as Tuckerman Ravine for this Saturday ;)

Thinking about next season (waiting to see what Killington will do about season pass) and dreaming about summer skiing in Argentina!

I literally cant go an hour without thinking about next ski season. While this one might have been good, next season Im getting 100+ days out in Jackson Hole. Its going to be epic.

Already bought new skis for next season. But I'm not done with this one yet. I've got one or two more days at Mt. Ellen!

Definately thinking about next season. Got new skis and hopefully a new back so next season should be awesome. Am looking forward to some powder days and some days in the moguls. Also I would like to get in some back country skiing next season. Can't wait!

next season is now the focus. my goals this summer are to make lot's of $$$, drop weight, and figure out all the best angles. pretty much everything i do seems to revolve around next winter. next week i will set up the countdown calendar in the kitchen.
